I’ve been going through a difficult divorce with my wife for a long time, but nothing seems to be moving forward. I’m a Sikh, and I’m wondering if converting to Islam would make it easier to get a divorce. It’s been very stressful, and I’m hoping for some guidance. I believe in Allah and trust in His help to overcome this challenging situation.

Changing your religion to facilitate a divorce is not permissible under Indian law. A divorce can only be obtained through legal procedures outlined in the relevant personal law governing your marriage, which is likely the Sikh personal law in your case. Seeking legal advice from a qualified lawyer familiar with family law is recommended.
