innalillahe wa inna lillahe rajeun . Ameen to all duas.
We didn't know what would happen to us until something happen to us.
When I married my wife I was never thinking that something would be happen to her. She was a beautiful woman, and frankly, it made me proud. But now, cancer that attack her bone has made her paralyzed from the waist down, and she has lost her beauty.
But I'm never thinking to divorce her. I know, what happen to her is a taqdeer (destiny) that has been written by Allah, and I didn't have power to prevent it.
It's not easy to live as a husband who have a wife like this. But Alhamdulillah, Allah gives me an amazing power, something that called love. Yes, I still and always love my wife. Even I love her more than before. This is the amazing power that makes her still has a will to survive.

Brother, try to see your problem from different point of view. Imagine if the person that got accident was not your wife but you. And now your wife ask divorce. What's you feel?.
May Allah give love in your heart.
Although I've ever close with few girls, my first love was with a girl from a town in south of my city. I really love her and really wanted to marry her. She loves me too. But there were many misunderstanding between us that later made her decide not to marry me. Then she married another guy, and I married a girl who was my classmate in highschool. That was my story.
My wife know about the first woman who I wanted to marry. This is why she asked me "if that woman was divorced, would you marry her?". I told my wife I didn't know about her. My wife asked me again "IF she was divorced and you know it, would you marry her?". So I told my wife "No!". She look happy because she knew I was honest with my answer.
I know, if the situation that asked by my wife really happen, I marry the woman who ever came to my life although just for second wife, it would really destroy my wife heart. No! I will not let it happen. I will never hurt my wife heart.
That woman never back to my life. But frankly, there was someone else wife that ever contacted me through messages and tried to bring back some memories. I respond her although I knew that's wrong. There was a guilty feeling that made me felt I must respond her, or I would hurt her again. But later I felt the bigger guilty feeling. I felt guilty to my wife. So, I cut my contact with that woman. I did it for my wife.
Guilty feeling. This is "the forgotten factor" that can make us trapped in relationship with someone from the past. We feel we should do something to make her life better. We can tell everyone that we do it for the sake of Allah, but if we must honest, then we will realize that we do it for the sake of ourselves, To redeem our guilty feeling because we think we have made her life unhappy.
We should not forget that after someone has gone from our life, then what happened to her is not our responsibility anymore. That's happened because decision that made by herself. And we should not forget to someone who now with us, our wives!. Our responsibility now is only to our wives.
We are not alone now. But we have wives. Imagine what our wives will feel if we do something to please another woman.
Maybe we ever hurt someone or few in our past, intentionally or accidentally. And it made us feel guilty. But the way to redeem this guilty feeling is not with do something for the story that has been end. We cannot change the past. The right way to redeem our guilty feeling is with loving our wives now as best as we can. They are the women that given by Allah for us.
