Question
A non-Muslim woman embraced Islam, not her husband. He is now cruelly abusing her. How can her marriage to the kaafir husband be annulled?
Answer
The marriage of the non-Muslim woman who has embraced Islam has automatically been annulled because the husband did not embrace Islam. After a period of three haidhs (menses) she is free to marry a Muslim.
