Marital life is not free of problems. Therefore, we call for patience with one's wife and seeking reward from Allah, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "No believing man should hate a believing woman; if he dislikes one of her characteristics, he will be pleased with another." However, if cohabitation between the spouses becomes impossible and there is no hope of reconciliation, then there is no impediment to divorce, for it is permissible and legislated to resolve disputes.
