Legal Question in Family Law in India

child custody-muslim couple

hi. We are a muslim couple.we have a daughter who is 2 yrs old. and is US citizen( not indian citizen). I want to know can muslim law which says that child's primary custodian is mother till the age of 5 only, applies to my daughter also or not? my daughter is with me (mother)since our seperation and i dont intend to give my daughter back to my husband even if he files the case for custody ever in l ife. But i fear this muslim law, is there any way where this can be avoided. I am a good mother and take care of my daughter very very well. My daughter has a congenital heart disease also which is getting treated in a very good hospital. I want to know that can US citizenship of my daughter come in the way of this muslim law? can it prevent my daughter going to my husband? Second thing, i wanna know i have my daughter but i hv not court order or document which says tht im her primary custodian and she is in my sole guardianship. I fear that when my daughter goes to school my husband should not be able to take her away or meet m my daughter viz school means. What should i do in order to make sure that he doesnt take her away from school and doesnt meet her without my permission or court permission in my presence. Please answer all quer
