Questions & Answers
Can I claim compensation from my husband for emotional and physical abuse?
Good day everyone.
We got married under Sharia Law in Dubai Courts and it is now 3 years with no kids.
I have been suffering and enduring physical and verbal abuse throughout the marriage. But I just continued to stay in the hopes that my husband would change.
I never thought of divorce because I was blinded by love and the concept of keeping our marriage sacred and with respect. Now, my husband has filed for divorce and his reason is our marriage will not work because of what he did last year (adultery).
I felt so blank because I am jobless at the moment and can't work as I am suffering emotionally and mentally. He will just leave me like this. My last resort is to be compensated for the damages I got, emotionally and physically.
For proof, I have WhatsApp messages, a police report of the physical abuse (case closed), and a paper that shows a booking with his name and a woman when he traveled to a different country (to which I found out about the adultery).
Please help me.
