Question ID: 1437 Category: Marriage and Divorce
Divorce

As Salaamu Alaikum wa Rathmatullahi wa barrakaatu my dear respected Scholars.After being married for 12 years I am undable to deal with the mental ilness that my husband has. This was not disclosed at or before marraige. Without slanderting or embarassing my husband, most things of debt will need to be discussed personally. It should be known that he left our marital home on his own account in 2019 since then there has been incidents of rage and fear induction that has lead to protection orders. Even with these things I have tried to remain married Islamicly. At this point I am realizing that these things are reoccurring and increasing in frequency. I have made insttakarrah about remaing married to him and the very next day an incident occurred. He has verbally divorced me twice in addition to this I have a legal divorce from him. He is not finacially responsable for me or our 2 children together. My question is are we still married Islamicly? If so how can I get an Islamic divorce? Insha Allah
