I have a hypothetical situation.
Let's say you're a young Somali Muslim woman and you get married. From the beginning of the marriage, he makes his intent clear (that you have to help his family). You stay married to him and have four children and live the role of a loyal housewife. His family makes it evident that they don't like you and your husband doesn't support you and even joins in as they talk shit about you and your family.
Over time, he becomes more verbally and mentally abusive to you.
The thing is you and your children are dependent on him and you don't have a way to financially support yourself or your children. You are also physically isolated from your own family.
What is the best solution to take? Would you divorce him or stay?
