Matter of confusion

I am currently overseas , and seem to be on the phone with my phone on a regular basis, I usually tend to be there with my wife on the phone when she is traveling to and fro work , coz i wont feel at ease unless she has reached safely. Other times I tend to be with her in times of need e.g she has had a RUFF day and needs some emotional support and consolation. Now i am aware that these are my duties as a husband towards her but here is my question and confusion. Technically the time difference is 4 hours (she being ahead) now what happens is that her early evenings are my mid afternoons and my evening is her night . So basically what i am trying to say is that due to the time difference I seem to be missing out on my Prayers ... at the time of Zuhr I want to tend to her because I need to make sure she reaches home safely Subhan'ALLAH how the Jamaah over here starts when she leaves her offices and the namaaz ends when she reaches home ... even for ASR it becomes quite haphazard during situations where i tend to be there for her if she had a ruff day and my Maghrib time is her bed time like way way late into the nite. A whole lot of confusion about what to do ... please dont tell me that i need to talk to my wife about this ... done it , but situation seems to get on fire whenever salaah time approaches and problems start to be created on its own.
Any sensible advice :)

Thank You Allah!
salamzz, im sorry to hear that. But the thing is , your prayers are more important and its not good for you to be missing out on them. As a husband, its your duty to take care of her. But as a Muslim, its you duty to do your prayers and on time. I know this might seem hard for you to do all that but remember, Allah is the one who gave you this problem and He is just testing you to see if you can pass this test and to see if you can actually pray and give time to Him more than you can give time to your wife. InshaAllah she will be better in the later future and inshaAllah you will have the time to do your salah's, but show Allah now that you can pass His test. Just put you trust on Allah to solve this problem and whenever you have the time to pray, make dua and ask Him to help you through this. And inshaAllah if you put your trust in Allah, He will make sure she is all safe and you won't have to worry about that. But do try because Allah will only help you if you try. But at the time of prayer, don't t worry about anything. Allah will take care of it InshaAllah. InshaAllah I'll try and remember to make dua for you to inshaAllah. May Allah make it easy for both of you. Amin.
