Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

Can you please clarify what is meant by ‘my love’?  Are you separating from somebody and marrying somebody else?  Please elaborate and phrase the question clearly.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
