I found out my spouse drinks alcohol in secret. How should I act?
Face this problem as a health and religious matter that calls for help, not just a sin to be punished. Drinking alcohol can become a gripping addiction that harms the body and the marriage. Talk calmly about your concerns and the effect on the family, then encourage them to get treatment and counselling. Keep the children away from unhealthy situations and look after their wellbeing. Keep praying for your spouse and looking after your relationship with Allah. If things get out of control, get professional help immediately. See counselling.
