Divorce & Separation
Ref. No. 1279
In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful
The answer to your question is as follows:
One should admonish his disobedient wife first; if it fails then her family members should try to rectify the situation. If all goes in vain, one can divorce her. Nevertheless, if, after all, he puts up with and does not divorce her, Allah will reward him much. Quran says: “And if you fear a separation between the two of them, appoint an arbitrator from his family and an arbitrator from her family” (Quran: Surah Al-Nisaa ).
And Allah knows best.
Divorce & Separation
Ref. No. 1005/41-175
In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most merciful
The answer to your question is as follows:
The woman must always obey her husband as much as possible, and try never to avoid when he calls for bed. If a woman is really sick then you should arrange a better treatment for her. How can you obligate her beyond her capacity if she is not in good health? You should try your level best to maintain your married life with good conduct. If you are still not able to overcome on your desire you can keep fast to control your passion. Divorce is not a solution for the problems.

Divorce & Separation

In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful
The answer to your question is as follows:
After one divorce, when the three menstrual periods have passed, it became irrevocable divorce and your marriage is no longer obtainable. Hence, she became a stranger to you. Nevertheless, if the woman wants to marry another man, she can do that. And if she is ready to marry you and both of you agree to get married again, then you can get married and live together, but it should be kept in mind that in the future you will have right to only two divorces.
