Could a woman ask for a divorce on grounds of emotional unavailability of her husband? I’ve been married for 9 months and my husband doesn’t speak to me nor does he spend time with me. The reason he gives is his hectic schedule. He comes back from work and sleeps off and then the cycle continues. His parents never speak in my favor on the other hand they ask me to remain patient and his mother overburdens me with household chores. I feel I mean nothing to my husband. I lately returned to my dad’s home. I find this marriage so bland and empty. There’s no sense of togetherness or love. What do I do? If I decide to separate will Allah not forgive me?
