Salam,
my husband and I got married last month. Things has been going horrible. We fight all the time. He swears at me. Calls me the B word, talks about my mom. And claims I keep him in a box because I don’t like the smoking of weed pens or nicotine. He told me to just kill my self, I’ll die peacefully that way. I really need help from a Muslim now. I want to divorce but I keep going back. We are already doing therapy together and individually and it’s just getting worse. Please help!
بسم الله الرحمٰن الرحيم

Dear sister,
May Allāh ease your situation. If at any time you feel threatened or fear for your well-being, please call the 911 immediately. For further guidance on this, please email me directly at muftiwahaaj@gmail.com. Alternatively, you can call the masjid and they can give you my phone number.
Do not despair. Allāh will make a way.
وَمَن يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُ مَخْرَجًا
وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ ۚ وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ
“Allāh will find a way out for those who are mindful of Him, and will provide for them from an unexpected source; Allāh will be enough for those who put their trust in Him.” (65: 2-3)
والله تعالى أعلم وعلمه أتم وبه التوفيق
And Allāh Taʿālā Knows Best
