Following one Aalim who one has confidence in

Q: I suffer from this type of ocd called scrupulosity. This often makes me have obsessive guilt. I fear that I have made the wrong choice on some islamic controversial issues and disagreements among the scholars such as music and other disagreements scholars have disagreements on. For example, for music I follow the opinion that music is permissible as long as if doesn't contain bad words and sexual content or provokes lustful desires. After researching the hadiths and reading different opinions I felt happy and confident with my choice. The waswas came and has made feel doubt. Not just on this issue but others as well. I fear that I have made the wrong choice and that I'll go to hell for it. I became so obsessed about thinking about my decision. Why does shaitan put this doubt in me and cause me anxiety. What if I make the wrong choice and side with the wrong scholars, will I be put to hell and punished by God? How can I feel confident on my choice without feeling doubt and obsessive guilt?

UAE court annulling the nikaah

Q: My wife went to UAE by telling me that she needs to deliver some papers to her relative and within 1 month or 45 days she will return back, but four months passed and she didn't return. So I went to bring her back, she refused to return to India. Now since 2009 October/November till today she is not willing to return India even though we both are Indians and she use to insist on me that we will live in UAE only. But she don't want to understand the difference between local and outsider. In 27 December 2014 she told me she needs divorce because she don't want to go to India and after one day 28 December she used very filthy language to me and even she said if I am the son of my father, then I must hit her. As a result I slapped he once. Suddenly she called the police. I found it was already planned as her mother and sister also live with us. She filed in mahkuma Sharaya, alain. They asked me, I said  I slapped her because she used filthy language and also spit on me and put scratches on my neck. The reports were there with the police, but to my surprise the judge gave her talaq instead of me. I never gave her talaaq. Now what is the state of my married life? Is it correct that a judge can give talaaq in the presence of her husband? Kindly reply me according to Ahaadith and Sunnah.
