My wife left the house without my permission and ask a stranger she works with to take her to her mothers house after an arguement. She lied to the jamiat she went with a bus and people saw her leave with this guy. I confronted this guy and he admitted he took her to her mothers house, she is pregnant what must I do, her family lied to the jamiat and dont seem to be helping the situation and making it any better, Plz give me advice
1. Our advice to you would be to do everything in your power to maintain this marriage. Be more tolerant with her. Both of you should make a concerted effort to make this marriage work by communicating your problems and finding ways to solve them.
2. Talaaq should only be a last resort.
3. Talaaq issued in pregnancy is valid and binding. The period of Iddat terminates on delivery of the baby.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
