Answer 4

Well, if it is too deadly abusive, like any abusive husbands, regardless of religion, Christianity, Islam, Hindus, Judaism, ectra, then she can ask for a divorce in Islam.

Answer 5

She should do what she feels necessary to hold her patience.

She should seek council with her family and with his family.

She should NOT keep others in the dark and herself isolated.

No Matter how worthless she feels, she needs to remember she is worth just as much as any other human.

If worse comes to worse and she cannot be patient and cannot reach out then she needs to empower herself and go for a divorce.

But if she goes for divorce she is going to have to break free of the shackles that will be placed upon her.

It takes a powerful woman to break free of an Abusive husband on her own.

Answer 6

She would divorce him just like any other women being abused by there husband.

Answer 7

Answer 8

p.s. If I had husband that abused me, one word: divorce
