Am I still married to him as I have had no connection with him for 10 years and I do not know his whereabouts? I want to move on but I have a guilt that I am still married to him but unable to get a divorce as I do not know where he or his family are at now.

Am I Islamically divorced?

I just feel I am being messed around and am not getting a clear answer from anyone. I feel as though I am just a ‘case number’ whereas my life is being turned upside down. All I want to know is that is the verbal and written divorce my husband gave me as mentioned above valid or not?
