Q: Salam
My mother got me engaged to a Muslim guy and we got on really well and understood each other even though we were in separate countries but my mum wanted to get money for him while in the engagement period and then call everything off I went against her and told her I want to marry this guy and I went to his country which is my mothers native country she followed me and took me to court and the judge said he didn’t see anything that would object us getting married she stormed off in the court and then started sending women to through us black magic at our door trying to separate us even though she knows that I have a child with this man and he treats me the way a proper husband should treat his wife etc . Was what I did wrong I mean by getting married to this guy even though I know she wants to in a way make me a source of income by playing guys and I want to settle down and have a family not in the haram way as she wants and what can I do to try and make the black magic have less of an effect on my family and my in laws jazak Allah khayran

A: Your marriage is valid.

In no way should you ever disrespect your mother, however, if what you said is true, then in order to protect your marriage and child, it would be best to distance yourself from your mother, until the situation is remedied.

May Allah give you the strength to continue doing the right thing, amen

Allah Certainly Knows Best.
