Q: I got married for a second time to a woman who is 32 years younger to me. She married me with all her consent through court marriage 6 years ago and through this marriage Allah blessed us with a beautiful daughter. Recently her behaviour towards me has become very harsh and does not respect me anymore. Alhamdollilah as far as sexual part, it is quite satisfying for both of us.

My question is:

1. Have I committed a sin by marrying a woman 32 years younger than me? I am meeting all her demands successfully. Alhamdollilah by Allah’s blessings physically everything is satisfactory.

2. Can you please let me know how to guide my wife to start respecting me again?

Q:

1. A brother divorced his wife once, a talaq baain, then performed a new nikah. After that he divorced her as follows:

I hereby formally issue one talaaq baain to ..., on 28/03/1439 (17/12/2017) at 15:22 pm. I also make ta’leeq of another talaaq baain which falls on 28/04/1439, exactly one lunar month from now, thereby completing 3 talaaqs, according to what has been mentioned as the sunnah method of divorcing a pregnant woman. Is this the sunnah method of talaq for a pregnant woman.

2. Is it not repugnant to divorce a pregnant woman? Are there any ahadith for this?

3. After 3 divorces, does the son-in-law have to observe hijaab from his ex-mother in-law and is communication permissible?

Q: Concerning the fast for Mondays, I went to sleep the night before intending to wake up to fast, then I woke up before sunrise and made the intention that I was not going to fast, and upon shutting my eyes I had once again changed my mind to fast thinking it is before sunrise and that I can do Sehri, however, upon checking the time I realised it was past sunrise and I was confused as to whether it counted as a fast or not, and I regarded myself as a fasting person and when another family member asked me regarding eating I verbally said I was fasting. However, I had a slight fear of not being able to maintain the fast throughout the day and therefore ate something upon making a judgement by reading some previous questions asked on a fatwa website. 

Therefore, Firstly was I counted as a fasting person in the first place?

Secondly, will making up the fast be necessary for me?
