It is better to take help from an NGO working for women and lodge a police complaint against your husband. it woud be difficult for you to take any action alone. So get support of an NGO.

I think if you visit the local social welfare office then they can make you meet the  protecion officer appointed under Domestic violence Act 2005, who will guide you further.Lodge a police complaint as adviced.

Dear Tarranum,

You can get the custody of your children as well as divorce and maintenance also.  

You will have to go through the legal process and you will need the help of either your elders or some NGO.  DO NOT be afraid, share your problems with any senior/elder person close to you whom you trust. You could go to the police also, but think carefully before you take any steps.  Aap ko pataa honaa chaahiye aapkay kissee bhee step kaa aapkay shauhar kyaa reaction denge.  So be smart and till you have everything in place, do not disclose your intentions to him.

Please ask your friend through whom u are using the internet to find a woman's organization near your home.  Use the internet to search for this information.  They will help you with the process.  But be prepared that once your husband comes to know that you have contacted someone, he may react violently.  Hence, before you take any step, ensure that you have some shelter for your children and yourself.  Also, ensure that you have some money before you take any step. 

Under the law, you are entitled to stay in your own home where you are currently staying.  The judge can order your husband to leave the house if he is violent.  But, although this is the law, I know that practically you may be scared to take any step.  So contact your elders/NGO and they will guide you.


Please continue contacting members here who can provide you moral support and there will be lawyers here on this forum who will be willing to provide you some guidance and support too.


Inshallah, you will come out of this slowly.  Be patient and have faith.  The truth will always prevail.


God bless you and keep you safe.
