It can be a test for a good wife to be with dictatorial husband. Dealing with such difficult situation needs lot of tolerance and patience which is based on faith in Allah (SWT).

You should try to make him understand as much as you can and as much as he is able and willing to understand. Dialogue is always good.

If he refuses to understand, you remember the pious wives who tolerated dictatorial husbands e.g. lady Asiya who tolerated the worst husband Firaon. Your husband despite his dictatorial attitude should have also good points, so keep his good points in mind and remind him about his good points so that he may try to increase his good points and leave bad ones.

'Seek help from Allah (SWT) in any step and any situation and keep on reciting Du'a and Estighfaar and Salawaat. Repeating LA HAWLA WALA QUWWATA ILL BILLAH has great benefits.

'Wassalam.
