What guidance does Islam provide to the wife in this  situation? Your resposne will highly be appreciated.<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>Islam obliges the husband to provide for the  wife and family. It is his duty to provide for all the needs of his  wife. However, if he fails to do so and indulges in sin he may be  reminded politely by the wife to leave the sinful activities and pay  attention to his obligations towards his family. If that does not work  the woman should bring the issue before her family and elders and they  should help her procure her rights. Failing that a wife may turn to the  court of law and seek their intervention. The wife may decide to  separate from the husband who does not correct his behavior and commits  adultery. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-01-13<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6186\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consider a husband who does not provide for the family has  also indulged int drinking, extra-marital relations, and justifies his  wrong doings.
