I am suffering from forced marriage 0

I have been in a forced marriage for 5 years. I have been suffering from depression since I got married, and how I am having panic attacks when ever my husband attempts to touch me. My parents and my husband have made my life a living hell. I don't know what sin I have committed to deserve this. I have lost my peace of mind and happiness. I have lost all interest in this life. I wish I would just die because I am too tired of everything. Sometimes I feel like just giving up and just live carelessly, I am so lonely and my heart yearns for love. If marriage is done to done to protect one from adultery, then forced marriages makes someone vulnerable to such acts. My husband doesn't get his desires satisfied by me because we've never been intimate in a peaceful way that'll grant him satisfaction. Also, my desires can never be satisfied by someone I despise. Parents should know this. I don't know what to do because I feel like I am going mad. If suicide were allowed in Islam, I would be long gone..

Very simple, just go to court, and your marriage will be nullified, because force marriage is Haram, even parents don't have the authority to force you into marriage. This is the only way, why thinking of suicide when you can simply get out of the situation.

Hi, Assalamu Alaykum. Don't know if you are still there or if you're going to read this, I hope so.....my dear Sister, no words can be used to console you, you know your situation best......but I'll just say a few general things in hope that it helps you to thread fairly in your situation. My sister, my heart weeps for you and I pray Allah ease all of our difficulties, Amin. There is this battle that a believer always fight, your heart is yours and you must take charge and be in its control, you should not let it control you, be strong and try to dominate it entirely. Ignore any negative thoughts that keeps coming to you, seek refuge from shaytan and do lot of istighfar......stay committed to this and keep telling your heart "I won't do what you want, I am your master" Things have been rough, and can't imagine the pain you have endured and have to endure in this 5 years. However, continue to trust Allah sincerely and with all your heart, know that he knows you best and knows what is best for you, channel all your anger and aggression and convert it to strength that will help you get closer to Allah, let it be an opportunity for you to build strong bond with your Rabb....Know that there are things you can't change in this life and learn to be at peace with them.....remember that Alllah said in the Qur'an: { أَحَسِبَ ٱلنَّاسُ أَن يُتۡرَكُوٓاْ أَن يَقُولُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا وَهُمۡ لَا يُفۡتَنُونَ } [Surah Al-`Ankabût: 2] Do people think once they say, “We believe,” that they will be left without being put to the test? { وَلَقَدۡ فَتَنَّا ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِهِمۡۖ فَلَيَعۡلَمَنَّ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ صَدَقُواْ وَلَيَعۡلَمَنَّ ٱلۡكَٰذِبِينَ } [Surah Al-`Ankabût: 3] We certainly tested those before them. And ˹in this way˺ Allah will clearly distinguish between those who are truthful and those who are liars. and in another place: { أَمۡ حَسِبۡتُمۡ أَن تَدۡخُلُواْ ٱلۡجَنَّةَ وَلَمَّا يَأۡتِكُم مَّثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ خَلَوۡاْ مِن قَبۡلِكُمۖ مَّسَّتۡهُمُ ٱلۡبَأۡسَآءُ وَٱلضَّرَّآءُ وَزُلۡزِلُواْ حَتَّىٰ يَقُولَ ٱلرَّسُولُ وَٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مَعَهُۥ مَتَىٰ نَصۡرُ ٱللَّهِۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ نَصۡرَ ٱللَّهِ قَرِيبٞ } [Surah Al-Baqarah: 214] Do you think you will be admitted into Paradise without being tested like those before you? They were afflicted with suffering and adversity and were so ˹violently˺ shaken that ˹even˺ the Messenger and the believers with him cried out, “When will Allah’s help come?” Indeed, Allah’s help is ˹always˺ near. also { وَلَنَبۡلُوَنَّكُم بِشَيۡءٖ مِّنَ ٱلۡخَوۡفِ وَٱلۡجُوعِ وَنَقۡصٖ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَمۡوَٰلِ وَٱلۡأَنفُسِ وَٱلثَّمَرَٰتِۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ } [Surah Al-Baqarah: 155] We will certainly test you with a touch of fear and famine and loss of property, life, and crops. Give good news to those who patiently endure— { ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَآ أَصَٰبَتۡهُم مُّصِيبَةٞ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّآ إِلَيۡهِ رَٰجِعُونَ } [Surah Al-Baqarah: 156] who, when faced with a disaster, say, “Surely to Allah we belong and to Him we will ˹all˺ return.” { أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ صَلَوَٰتٞ مِّن رَّبِّهِمۡ وَرَحۡمَةٞۖ وَأُوْلَٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلۡمُهۡتَدُونَ } [Surah Al-Baqarah: 157] They are the ones who will receive Allah’s blessings and mercy. And it is they who are ˹rightly˺ guided.

My dear sister, having said that..... you need to understand that in this life everyone has their test and we don't get to choose what Allah will test us with, if so then where is the test.... think of the word "test" in every single way you can....Also I want you to ponder upon this: ARE YOU IN THE WORST SITUATION IN LIFE? look around you and look beyond that, some were raped by strangers or some even by their own blood, some were even abused by their parent, some were born crippled with neither hands not leg....some blind....lots of permanent damages....some are living in war torn countries without food or water.....not to talk of other basic amenities like sense of security, some even come to this life we are living, without life on itself (dead). Did any of these people offend Allah? Is Allah putting them in their situation because Allah doesn't like them or is it because Allah wants them to suffer? No! certainly NO! subhanah! Ask yourself my sister WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE? WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THIS EARTH? WHAT IS YOUR GOAL IN LIFE? AND WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE?

The fact is that this life is transient and their is an eternal life that we are here to prepare for! please for the sake of Allah....do not let your trial and tribulations distract you from this goal. Be strong pray hard as prayers can change anything be it your husband or your heart. Please don't mistake me my dear sister, I am not saying you have to love someone you don't love (although it can be doable). However there are certain etiquettes in islam that every believer must abide by, one of which is GIVING EVERY OWNER OF RIGHTS THEIR RIGHT/ GIVING ANYONE WHOM THEIR RIGHT IS DUE UPON YOU THEIR RIGHTS.......and this should be given ABSOLUTELY, UNTETHERED AND UNRESERVED......two wrongs cannot make a right....you have been wronged but Allah has put it in your power to make things right, please be patient, be patient and be patient.... trust Allah, trust Allah and trust Allah....for surely Allah rewards the patient and Allah is the Most Wise and Most Appreciative.....Give your husbands all his rights to the greatest of your capacity, continue praying and be at peace with whatever Allah decrees for you.
