As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
 
We are sad to note the contents of your email. A wife should never be abused. You need to be made comfortable especially being a mother of three children. Your emotions pass over onto your children.
 
In order for us to offer you appropriate advice, kindly inform us why your husband beats you? Furthermore, what do you mean by beating you? Why would he beat you? You refer to his anger. What leads to his anger and is his anger controllable? Answer these questions and we will advise accordingly.
 
Alternatively, seek the assistance of a senior person in the family. Confide in him and request him to remedy the problem. The local Imam may also be a choice to address the issue.
 
We make dua that Allah guide you to the best solution and grant you peace. Aameen 
 
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
