What compensation should I give and will I get back the jewelry I gave her?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
In continuation with Question #: 16005 Respected Maulana, Assalamualiakum Wa rahamatullahi barkatahu, I am in very great trouble now. The girl whom I got married is having an affair with someone. Due to this she had asked me many times to give talaq. Since I did not knew that she loves someone I had ignored this. She has clearly written in one letter and also told me about this later. I did not share this (she loves someone else and talaq matter) with her parents. Few days before she went to her sister’s house and said to her parents that I have given talaq to her 3 to 4 times. Those people came to my house and beat me and blamed my sister that she has spoiled their daughter’s life. She lie a lot (even takes oath on Quran). While getting married I was told my many people who know her family that they strictly follow Islam. But now I know that they are not. Her father had died few years back before my marriage. She has taken all jewelry give by us. I do not want to spend rest of my life with a liar who does not fear Allah and the Day of Judgment. Please help me. In eleven months of our marriage she hardly stayed with me for 2 months. Please let me know what will be compensation I should give? Will I get back the jewelry (not mahar) give by me? Are there any other chargers (extra money) applicable? Allah knows better, Thanks in advance Regards!

When it is difficult to live together with wife, you can get her separated. But you should get first the jewelleries she has taken with her and you will have to give full mahr after talaq. There is no fine on you as per the Shariah.
