There are two points in your issue. No.1 is your marriage problem No.2 is putting your MMS on net. No.1:--The marriages done in Arya Samaj are valid one nobody can question it. It is equivalent to registered marriage. Even if the marriage certificate is with you, your husband can obtain another certified copy of the same from Arya Samaj. So, you cannot deny the marriage and you have to accept the same. If you want to get divorce, you have to file a divorce petition on the ground of cruelty and desertion. It will take a long time 3 to 4 years. Other alternative is to file mutual consent divorce, you will get divorce very easily. No.2—He is threatening you to put your MMS on net and he is also hacking your facebook. It is a very serious offence under of IPC. It is cognizable and non bailable. He will get a punishment of imprisonment of up 3 years. Immediately file a police complaint before the Police and tell them he is having in his possession your MMS and hacking your facebook. They will arrest him and collect your MMS from him and file a criminal case against him.
As per the facts furnished by you it is clear that you are already married. Hence, there is no question of you 'wanting to not to marry him'. You should know that arya samaj marriage is a valid marriage for all legal purposes. Your husband may obtain 100 certified copies of the marriage certificate from arya samaj notwithstanding that the original is with you.
The only way out is to apply for divorce as the conduct of your husband amounts to grave cruelty in as much as he has questioned your character and threatened to release your MMS. If your husband does not agree to mutual divorce then you may unilaterally apply for divorce. You may also file a police complaint against your husband for threatening to release your MMS whereupon he can be booked and arrested under non-bailable provisions of law. Police will recover the MMS from his possession.
No doubt you deserve a better life and life partner, in order to get which you need to liberate yourself from this relationship. The path to liberation necessarily passes through an adjudication by court.
