My Wife Cheated on Me: What Should I Do?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I married in 2000, having son and daughters. I love my life and wife but before two months I checked her email and found that she is in relationship with another person. She said that it was just attachment not love and she applogised. I forgave her but two days before I again found that she is still in relation with the same person and now she swore on quran that she will never meet and call him. She said that he gave gifts to her in this 1.75 years relationship and he wants to take take them back from her, therefore she talked with him now. But now on quran she said that she do not want him, she only want to live with me and my childrens. I am completely broken now and confused what to do? I therefore ask you to help me.

Bismillaah

A: If you feel comfortable with her and you have the heart to overlook her weaknesses and you also feel quite confident that she is not going to relapse then you may keep her.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
