Salam wailaikum.

My wife became muslim, we got married, 10 years later she left me for a non muslim. There has been no talk about divorce but she is living with another. Please tell me what to do regarding islamic ruling. Thankyou. Jazakallah


In the Name of Allah, the Inspirer of Truth.
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh

From what you have told us, all you can do is move on and seek to marry another. She is still legally married to you and is living in a state of perpetual sin.

If there is no chance of reconciliation, issue one divorce in writing to your wife.

And Allah knows Best
