Asalam Alaikum, Welcome to the Forum sis.. 1. What about him do you not like? 2. Why did your parents want you to marry him? 3. Why in general are you rude to him? We should not be rude to anyone in general whether a family member, husband or stranger. 4. Did he want to marry you or was he also "pressurized' to marry you? It sort of sounds like you are upset and angry (maybe at your parents) to marry him and you are taking it out on him. I suspect he did not have alot of 'say' in the matter as well as you. I would also add that this is a cultural thing that can happen when families put too much pressure on a woman or man to marry a specific person when they are really, truly against it. Have you discussed this situation with your husband? What does he say regarding the marriage? Have you discussed this with any of your family members? My Duas are for you.

Walaikum Salam wa Rahmatullah,
I see you been into whisperings of satan. Yes, there was a mistake done earlier, that you cud not use your right to deny the proposal you dislike, but now i wish you to tell yourself that perhaps this is the person, Allah swt has selected for you. Continue your salah and other ibadahs. Don't get distracted by the whisperings of satan and stop them.
Oh sure ! you can spend your whole life in Ibadah, Its simple, just try to be obedient to Allah's command and thats it. Your life becomes an Ibadah. Just shed all those whisperings. Certainly, satan does n't want a couple to lead a peaceful life. You are fortunate to have such good husband. Keep thanking Allah swt and that shall help you come closer to him. Just tell yourself that Allah swt chooses the best for us. When Allah swt has destined this person in your life, then certainly, he is the best for you.
I wish you a very happy life. May Allah swt bestow you the happiness.
{Sister, its not easy for a woman to live single in a country like India. You can't face society, howmuch ever bold you are. So please try to understand and thank the favours and bounties of Allah swt for whatever you have, its immense. InshaAllah by thanking Allah swt you shall feel satisfied with your life}

Asalamualaikum w. w. Sister, i am in a similar situation, i have been married for nearly 8 years now and i have one child. My husband is very good to me and i try to be good to him but i know i am not doing my best. i feel angry at him very easily but i try not to show this to him all the time.
it is very lonely to be in this situation and i know it is affecting my health ...i try not to think about it as i don't have a choice as i must think about the welfare and happiness of my child.
i feel betrayed by my parents and wished i had refused to have been forced at the time.. i do love them very much....Allah knows best..i did not have the courage back then.
i do not wish this on anyone and i pray those who are forced speak out sooner, they have an Allah given right to do so...It is even harder once many years are put in to a marriage to back out especially because more lives are involved.
I pray for you sister and can feel your pain and sadness...remember you are never alone and Allah the Most Merciful will help you and bring from this darkness good for you even though you can't see it now...Make your connections with Allah stronger...don't let shaytan deceive you it is up to Allah to accept and reject ibadat not for you to decide...and have full trust that Allah is Most Forgiving he will forgive you even if you don't forgive yourself.
Wasalam and take care of yourself.

Salaams Leena Welcome to the forum, my duas are with you.. it is interesting when you don't feel this 'connection.' As a revert I do not need to worry about my parents approval or going against their wishes by marrying someone they want and I do not. Having met eligible men and knowing that we are not 'right' for each other I was able to turn away much more easily. I often think that parents should, after investigation, to meet like 3-5 people.. like job interviews.. its so HARD to know if you only meet like 1.. You meet 5 and you get a range to see how you react. This is true even more so with women who lived in societies with little interaction with men. If parents are set on 'one' its so hard for the daughter. Get 5 who meet criteria and then see what the daughter (or son) says. My duas are with you. ------------- When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy. Rumi |

Try to live balanced life. Chit chat is part of life until it becomes wrestling. In general and fair principal have respect and give respect; however if you do well without deed or return, it will be your greatness; It will be called as "Ikhlas - (only for sake of Allah)". Hopefully you are not taking revenge from wrong person; actually unfair happened to you, and which your mind is not receiving yet; in return of that your behavior and attitude went reckless; it�s natural but need to control. Can you cannel this stress to some else work?
No that�s not valid deduction from the saying "prayer is not accepted", what about other below Hadiths meanings 1 "any men who will say Fraz prayer in home (not going mosque) without any reason; his prayer will not be counted" 2. "Anybody who left prayer without reason becomes kafir" Actually lesson and purpose of the above sayings is to put light on importance of the matter. Ulema named such hadith as something; forget that; will let you know later. Thanks to Ulema and their existence who explains that such said prayers are marked but definitely with less virtue. Same is the case here you read "not obeying husband is doing sin n her prayers not accepted." so please do not miss your prayers or any FRAZ; these will be counted and will inshAllah strengthen you in this difficult time. Point to be noted that I am not favoring or discussing behavioral things with husband, my point is only about acceptance of prayer; forum seniors are already with you on this topic. In fact this all life is �ibaadat� Regarding the word �yabodoon� in below ayat Imam Ghazali said that this word contains ten things like Ibaadat(prayer),Social (Muasharati), Moral (Ikhlaqiat), Business (Muashiaat), Politics (Siasisaat), Personal, Zikaar, Ihsaan and etc. I will complete this list later. See prayer is only part. Surah Zariat (The scatterers) Ayeh 56: "Va Ma Khalaghta Al gen val Ens Ella le yabodoon" (And I have not created the jinn and the men except that they should serve Me). وَمَا خَلَقۡتُ ٱلۡجِنَّ وَٱلۡإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعۡبُدُونِ
My prayers are with you. Things will be fine. ------------- Never Give up |

Dear naziatabassum, I am not muslim, but woman, and I can imagine the pain you should feel inside.
For me, the first thing that a couple should have is freedom to tell each other whatever they feell. My suggestion is just to open your heart to him, to tell him that you feel bad, and you need his help to improve in your marriage.
One of the reasons of the couples failure is that they get married before meeting each other, and after marriage they discover on the other one lot of things they don't like.
But you have to focus in that he is a good man, as you said. You have the chance to be open with him, to tell him why you are not happy and to tell him how you may be happier.
Sometimes, to spend more time together in a travel helps to become closer to each other. Why don't you suggest him to make a trip to any place for at least 2 weeks? Really, if you are keeping all these bad feelings inside you, both of you will have pain, and your families.
I wish you all the best in your life.
Kind regards
Patricia
