Her Husband Prays in a Different Tradition

Question

A woman who prays in the Ashkenazi tradition married a husband who prays in the Sephardi tradition. Does she need to change?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

If her husband insists on it, she should change and pray according to her husband's custom. If he does not insist, she does not need to change.
