I suspect that my husband is cheating on me.

Question

I suspect that my husband is cheating on me. Can I hire own money to watch him?

No, never is it permissible to hire a private investigator to spy on your husband. You will be inviting the Curse of Allah Ta'ala. If you suspect your husband of wrong doing, make

My friend suffers from depression and bipolar and has been for sometime. He currently sees a psychiatrist and psychologist. He has been on medication for a long period. He gave his wife talaaq under the following circumstances:

1) He lost control of his emotions and thought process mentally or physically. He has had this episode before where He became violent and started damaging what is in the home. His wife locked herself in the bedroom with the children. 2) His Psychologist has clearly stated that he suffers with a condition where at this stage in rage he becomes like a person who has lost all control of himself mentally. He can not recall what occurs or it is very blur to him. 3) He has been arrested on two occasions with this behaviour when he assaulted two people.

4) He have been stressed alot with family issues and financial issues which triggers his mood swings .

5) The medication his on does assist to a certain extent but not when he is in the a few days it will be squanstate of madness.

Please advise if his Talaaq is valid.

Answer

In all similar bipolar cases, these persons ‗lose control of their emotions and display ‗excessive anger' generally on their wives and on those who are weak and unable to defend themselves. They will NEVER lose control of themselves when the police arrests or assaults them. They will know how to suppress their anger in front of strong men. They will then forget about being bipolar. It is only on the weak wife they can display their anger and physical prowess. Then after the damage is done, they seek to justify their conduct with their bipolar stunt.

These bipolar men eat, drink, dress, drive and do everything normally. Only when it comes to their wives, do they exhibit their ‗bipolar powers'.

What the ‗mad doctors' psychiatrists and the like say is bunkum. They only aggravate the ‗madness' of those they treat.

Brother, the Talaaq is valid.

dua for his reformation.

If your husband is thinking of marrying another woman, it will not be ‗cheating' on you. It is permissible for him to marry again. However, if he is committing haraam, then he will be cheating on Allah Ta'ala, not on you. For his haraam, Allah Ta'ala will take him to task severely.
