TalaaqThose situations where Talaaq does not take place

Question

I got married last year and it was a love marriage. I moved abroad and my wife is still back in my homeland. We fight alot. Before and even after marriage, we beat each other, obviously I am the husband so I beat her harder.

Now, every time we fight, it ends with her asking for talaq, or I tell her to leave me, or I tell her everything ends etc. But recently in messages, we fought again, and as usual she asked me for talaq and this time I said to her that we are separated for 40 days. Then I blocked her from every social media that we keep contact on. I haven't called her or said any words of talaq.

Answer

She is still in your nikaah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
