Asking for faskh due to mistrust
Q: Me and my wife are currently separated but not divorced. We have been separated for 6 weeks now. My questions are as follows:
1. How long are we allowed to be separated before our marriage will be null and void?
2. My wife wants a fasagh, however I want to reconcile. The problem was that I borrowed money from a friend and never told my wife and she only found out afterwards that I borrowed money from a female... Is she allowed to be granted a fasagh on the basis of mistrust and lies?
3. If she insists on a fasagh and I dont want to because I still love her and for the sake of our children, can the Alim force her to give me a chance even though her parents don't want her to take me back?
A:
1. The marriage does not become null and void with separation.
2. Refer this to some righteous experienced aalim. Maybe he will be in a better position to reconcile your differences.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
