When a husband indulges in pornography does it represent a lower love for his wife or just an addiction?

Answer

A man who indulges in pornography is gripped in the tentacles of shaitaan. His heart and brains are deranged. His filthy act has no relationship with love or less love for his wife. It is plain shaitaaniyat and sub-bestiality.

When a person lacks fear for Allah Ta'ala – when his Imaan is dead – then he behaves worse that the lower animals. He debases his intelligence and his Imaan with the filth he takes into his eyes and heart. He then becomes a sexual pervert on whom descend the Divine Curses.

Never be fooled by the deceptive arguments of men who look intentionally at women and claim that they are not sexually affected/ aroused. Those who make such claims are devils. They lie and deceive to cover up their immoral villainy. There is no such thing that a man will not have sexual thoughts when he deliberately stares at women. In fact, even if he mistakenly looks at women his nafs will have the better of him if he is not a man of strong Imaan in whom the fear of Allah Ta'ala dominates. But one who intentionally looks is bereft of fear for Allah Ta'ala.

The argument that they can't control their eyes is another shaitaani figment and self-deception. They are like atheists who do not believe in Allah Ta'ala, hence they speak such nonsense. Atheists are bereft of Khauf for Allah Ta'ala. If there was any validity in their bunkum argument, Allah Ta'ala would not have made it compulsory on men not to look if it was impossible. It is plain nafsaaniyat and shaitaaniyat to refrain from controlling the eyes. Such control is a simple matter. The eyes only have to be turned away, and for this muscles are not needed. Only a little fear for Allah Ta'ala will suffice.

No, a wife does not play any role whatsoever in the shaitaani husband's indulgence in pornography. Even if a wife is like a one ton bull and looks like a hag and a witch, then too the man has absolutely no valid reason for viewing the worst of filth. It is plain shaitaaniyat and nothing else.
