Heartbroken by Old Messages on Husband's Phone

Assalamu alaikum. I found some old messages on my husband's phone from when we were engaged. He was texting a sister he had met before, asking if she was free because he was in her area. She worked at a cafe, and he mentioned it was near his place. They exchanged a few messages back then. I know it was wrong to look through his phone, and I feel guilty for that. He is known to be very practicing-he prays all his salah diligently-so this has really shaken my iman and hurt me deeply. I don't know if they ever met, and we've only been married a few months; our marriage has been beautiful otherwise. This has changed how I see him. Please, what does Islam advise in this situation? May Allah guide us.

My heart truly aches for you. That feeling of shock is the worst. Don't ignore it, but seek advice from someone pious and wise in your family or community.

Been in this boat. The 'what ifs' are torture. Dua and a calm conversation are the only way forward. May Allah make it easy for you.

Sis, take a deep breath. It was before you married, and if he is truly practicing now, trust that. But please talk to him honestly about how much this hurt you.
