My In-laws trying to separate us

Hello All,

I am a Muslim boy. I was in love with a muslim girl but with a different caste for last 6 years.

Few months back we tried to convince our parents. My parents agreed for arrange marriage according to Muslim Shariah, but girl's parents did not. They wanted a boy from their caste only.

She tried really hard and did everything to make them understand, but they even did not want to listen us.

They started to torture the girl, lot of abuses, mental and physical harrasment. I could not see all this and told her to marry me without her parents consent. She agreed on one condition that i take her with me and dont let her to face her family as she doesnt want to face her family in future. We really did not want to play with our parents' social respect. But after lots of sufferings and 4-5 months' mental pressure we gave up and ran away from our homes.

We performed a nikah first according to Muslim Shariah and then registered our marriage in court.

As soon as my family came to know this, they scolded me but accepted what we did and gave us permission to live with them. But my wife's parents still trying to influence her to go back with them.

They are playing drama, crying in front of her and saying come home with us and we will get your marriage arranged again in few days. My wife's heart is melting in family's love and she wants to go back with them. But i am not convinced i doubt they can take her home and will not do what ther are saying.

Please guide me what to do??

1.
You and your family with elders in family make your wife stronger emotionally.


2.
Ask your In Laws to do their intended nature of marriage at your home means at your jurisdiction if they want to keep their words as they say to their daughter / to you.


3.
The issue here is your wife getting weak inspite of taking bold step hence para 1 is the social way out.


4. The leagl remedy is to seek protection order against your In Laws and it works only if your wife is 100% with you and if she melts and or backsout at last minute before court then it may create a tough road ahead for all of you.
