The Husband Swearing His Wife That She Loves Him

Question
Is it permissible for a woman to swear to her husband that she loves him if she does not love him?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: It is permissible to lie in matters that increase affection and love between spouses, and this is one of them. However, she must take great care in changing her feelings towards her husband and strive for affection and love, and God knows best.
