Does the current separation between the spouses, accompanied by strange psychological symptoms that appeared after marriage, lead to their divorce?
Divorce does not occur merely by leaving the marital home or by one spouse abandoning the other. Divorce is disliked in Islamic law and should not be resorted to except when reconciliation becomes impossible. It is advised to return home and live together amicably. As for bothersome issues that might be sorcery (sihr), spiritual possession (mass), or evil eye (ayn), their treatment is easy by relying on Allah, maintaining regular remembrance (dhikr) and lawful incantations (ruqyah shari'ah), and persistent supplication (du'a). One may also seek help from healers who treat with the Quran and adhere to Islamic law.
