Repenting from Drug Addictions
Question

                My sister's husband uses drugs. Although he wants to stop using them, he can't because of his addiction, but alhamdulillah he fears Allah.

My sister wonders what to do in this situation; she has 3 children with him, and leaving him would be worse because then there wouldn't be anyone for him so he could go and use more and/or commit suicide, etc.

I ask you for help with the power of the "One" in Whose hand my life is.
Praise be to Allah.
    We 
    advise your sister to stand by her husband in his repentance and attempt to 
    rid himself of addiction to drugs, and not to leave him to the human wolves 
    who would destroy him. He needs her more than ever right now. 

    You 
    have to seek help from medical centers that treat addiction. There is 
    nothing wrong with that, because this will help him to get rid of his 
    addiction. 

    She 
    should not hesitate in doing this, and she should hasten to get in touch with 
    those who specialize in dealing with such matters. But she should always 
    remind him to be pious and fear Allah, and remind him of death and the 
    meeting with Allah, whilst encouraging him to give up his addiction and 
    giving him the hope that he will recover and his repentance will be accepted 
    by his Lord.

    And 
    Allah is the Source of strength.
