Question:
Asalam alaikum Shaikh sahab,
It’s about 7 months that I am separated from my husband. I don’t love him anymore because after 2 weeks of my marriage he fight with me and with my whole family. But he just say to me, ” that you are free now” , he didn’t say the word of talaq to me, but now it’s 7 months later and have no contact with him or anything. Did talaq happen between us? Is there any relation between us in Islam’s view? Am i still his wife or not? I turned to him 3 times because of Allah & His prophet to make it better, but he refused me! What is his punish in Islam?
I live in [private] and he lives in London! Thank you so much and i am waiting for your response! Allah Hafiz
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
You are free to marry another man.
He acted as men in pre-Islamic times did and will be responsible for his wrong action before God.
