Temporary ligation

Q: I am in a dilema. In a course of 6 years I have had three c sections. I am now pregnant again with my fourth child within a few months of giving birth to my third. Doctors are insisting I get my tubes tied as a c section is a major operation and the risk gets higher every time. Am I allowed to do this due to the reason of this being my fourth c section in such a short span of time?

Separation with the intention of divorce

Q: If I ask my husband 3 times to separate from me, is it considered khula? I was living in a different country at the time and could not return to the original country where our nikaah was to file for separation myself. In the papers he even wrote that he is doing this on my request. This happened about 4 years ago and we would like to reconcile. Will we be able to get married again without any issue?
