Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, is His Slave and Messenger.
If your husband harms you by abusing you physically or insulting you or not spending on you or not providing you with a separate accommodation, then you have the right to seek divorce from him through the judge. For more benefit, kindly refer to Fatwa 131953.
If he does not harm you but you hate him and are not able to live with him and fulfill his rights anymore, then you may free yourself from him by Khul’ )i.e. divorce at the request of the wife who pays a compensation(. If he does not agree, then the judge, according to the opinion we adopt here in Islamweb, should force him to do Khul’ and not force you to return to him.
Allaah Knows best.
