Assalam Wa Alaikum,
I wanted to start this topic because I have felt the need to and I want as much feedback as possible both islamically and as friends. A marriage is between two persons and both parties will usually have friends that they talk to from time to time. These friends can be both male and female. Some might say they are more acqauintances than friends. My issue is a husband having close female friends. I am a kind of shy person and I don't have any male friends , not that I want but , to think of having a close male friend and being married , in Islam is just wrong. Another thing is that he says he has her as a close friend but doesn't tell you how close he really is with her. Is this right? I am not sure. Please help me. What is the ruling or the right thing to do in a situation like this?
