Answer:
Salam ‘Aleikom,
First of all, I want to say that it is really important for us to psychologically separate Islam as a tradition and a Muslim or Muslims. We have to remember, sister, that we are humans, first and foremost, and Islam is a reflection of how human we are. So, the quality of my “Muslimness” is also a reflection of my humanity. Thus, you cannot blame Islam or lose faith in Islam simply because your husband has been struggling with a sin.
All human beings are going to make mistakes, and all are going to commit sin, some graver than the other. This is not the same thing as saying that there is a problem with Islam. No! He is just a human being struggling with something. So, that’s the first thing. It’s very important for us to not conflate your Muslim practice with Islamic tradition. Humans are Muslims, and Muslims are humans….
