Asalam alaykum Wa Rehmatulla Wa Barakatahu,
May ALLAH(SWT) grant us all forgiveness and the good in this world and the good in the hereafter and protect us. Ameen .
I am in urgent need of guidance regarding my married life. I have been married for more than 5 years with no kids. After 2 years our relationship deteriorated but somehow we managed to stay married. We tried for kids but maybe ALLAH(SWT) has better plan for us as even the IVF didnt work.None of us have cheated on each other but it seems we just ended up with this vast space between us and dont know how to fill it up. We have been like this for last couple of years. Even though we live together there is hardly any talk between us. The most we talk is saying Salam to each other. We haven’t been physical either for more than a year.
Recently I was listening to a islamic lecture and found out that actually our nikah could have become invalid. We dont argue or shout but co-exist as strangers, maybe for the sake of our families.
Could you please guide me and give me advice as I am afraid that I am committing a sin living like this ?
JazakAllah Khair
