If it is proven that a man has corrupted a wife against her husband, it is forbidden. The wife committed a great sin by speaking to a strange man and requesting a divorce without a legitimate reason. Her heart becoming attached or her not loving her husband does not justify her seeking a divorce, and she should inform her husband about the harm of his absence. The husband should strive to have his family live with him to avoid the exploitation of emotional emptiness and the husband's absence, and the wife has the right that her husband should not be absent for more than six months except with her permission.
