Husband living abroad

Question

I am a married woman 24 years old. My husband is abroad and due to passport and visa issues, I have to wait till I get over there. I pray salah five times. Now for the time being I masturbate secretly without the knowledge of my husband. I am justified. I can't fast as I have health issues.

Answer

Insist on your husband that he should visit you in closer intervals as it is becoming unbearable.

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