Question

My wife cheated on me twice. The first time I caught her was when my son was 1 year old and second time I caught her my son was 4 years old. She likes my sisters husband. What should I do?

Answer

Ask her if she is interested. If she is then she may marry him after you divorce her.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
