 Dear

Dear
Egyptian Castle,
I made my
Shahada almost
one year ago.
Since then my
Muslim husband
won't let me go
out of the house
and he doesn't
have time to
teach me Islam
and to do Salat.
Help me
please!!!!!!! It
was an arrange
marriage and I
do not love him
but I like him. |
Dear
Rosemary,
Unfortunately,
you did not
elaborate more
on your specific
situation,
however from
what you've sent
us this is
nothing short
of mental
abuse. You
live in the USA
where freedom
and liberty is
for
all.
Marriage is not
a house arrest,
even if it was
an arranged
marriage.
You have all the
right to
practice your
religion with or
without your
husband's
help. Does
he abuse you
physically?? He
simply does not
have the right
to forbid you
from leaving the
house. He
did not buy you
but he is
married to
you. We
urge you to take
action immediately
by contacting
the authorities
or organizations
for abused women
in your state,
who can direct
you and help
you. Your
husband's behavior
should not be tolerated
and if you don't
try to do
something about
it now, it will
eventually get a
whole lot
worse. We
are also
confident that
you can locate
mosques or Muslim
organizations in
your area where
they can teach
you about
Islam.
Love yourself,
speak up and
don't let him
get away with
treating you as
an object, you
deserve
better. If
you need further
assistance,
locating special
organizations in
your state,
please send us
an email
with further
details and we
will try to
research it for
you. We
wish you all the
best. |
