My friend has been trying to leave her husband for about a year now. And everyday hakuri ake bata + invalidating her very genuine reasons for wanting to leave. People forget that Allah ya ba mace daman demanding saki if she doesn’t want to stay married.
She’s threatened to go to court and both parents and husband think her incapable of such. And have refused to take her seriously. They’ve refused to hear her out. A couple of weeks ago, she went to court and the husband was given a date to show up.
Only then did her parents ask her to come and talk. And only then did her husband feel fear. Before now, he’d tell her she can’t leave and there’s nothing she can do about it.
She had a talk with her parents 2 days ago that almost ended with her being disowned and later turned to let’s have another meeting with your Waliy during the week and we’ll sort it out.
She didn’t want to go back to the husbands house while they were waiting. But they insisted. So she went back. Telling herself that if her parents didn’t listen, the court will.
He seized her car keys yesterday. This morning, their daughter woke up with a fever and she had to take her to the hospital. She had the spare key and took their kid. They were asked to return later for the results. Upon returning home, he took the car out.
When it was time to go back to the hospital, she tried getting into his room to get his car key but it was locked. She broke the lock. Took the key. Took their kid to the hospital. And came back.
She got home and he asked her to pack and leave. Why, you ask? Because she broke the lock, took his his car key that’s a Benz and took their sick kid to the hospital. He forget that’s all she wanted all along. He even dropped her off at a relatives.
Here’s the fun part: he texts her father that he has to return his daughter to him because she broke down his door and took his benz out and she’s become uncontrollable and is dangerous to everyone at him.
Men are scum.
He’s tried so many ways, for so long, to incapacitate and discredit her but didn’t succeed. And now he’s using the crazy card.
Dear [Arewa] parents, stop allowing your kids to be humiliated in the name of staying married. Listen to your children. Stop acting like they’re less than they are.
Auren nan fa Ibadah ce. Kuma ibadah ana yin sa cikin natsuwa da kwanciyan hankali ne.
Ku dena yiwa Mazajen ya yan ku unnecessary kara. They think of it as weakness, they think of it as you selling off your kids. They don’t deserve it.
