Thank you for the advise sister.

It's just that I would be very disappointed if she suddenly quit wearing it.

bro not even married and already thinking of circumstances that could prompt a divorce...slow down. technically you could issue divorce for the dumbest of reasons by saying talaq three times and your marrigae would be over. but should you, of COURSE NOT.

There are a lot of things that must be considered first of all divorce is such a serious thing.

next as brother Abu Fatimah rasied the issue of niqaab and its status in shariah being viewed differently by different groups and scholars, I'm not advocating for or against just raising a point.

brother revert though you think removing niqab would a serious issue (no doubt) issueing a divorce over it would be very serious indeed. instead of divorcing it would probably be better to try to change the individual's action and influence them refer to this lecture: http://www.sacredlearning.org/audio/...ing_people.mp3

if the individual was adamant that they would never again take up the niqab, i think you would have to try to understand their circumstances and what opinion they followed ont the matter (i.e. if it had changed etc.). regardless you should by no means make an intention from day 1 that if your future wife takes off the niqab then you'll divorce her, you can be right to feel uncomfortable by such a thought but actually considering a divorce even before you've met a girl...it seems that you havent thought through the issue very much. remember that hasty decisions are from shaytaan.
