What views and issues would that be?

That I totally believe in the Quran, Hadith, and Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

or

Something else??

WOULD they even let her marry you considering your views and issues

Whatever the circumstance brother revert, would trying to reform or influence her not be a preferable option to an "easy divorce" (easy for you at least). remeber the easy option is not always the best one.

it is easy to leave home and abandon your family because there are wrongs going in in there. its much harder to stay, while keeping yourself safe from the fitna, and try to reform them. but hey it's the prophetic example. our prophet did not break off ties with family because they were kafirs, let alone sinners, in such a case your wirfe would be commiting a major sin (i.e. abandoning hijab as a whole) but she would still be a muslim....In our religious tradition it is a major sin to break off ties with family...do you not think divorcing your wife is alsoa very serious issue?

the goal of the muslim should always be to affect change, and remeber when you make an effort for the sake of Allah and strive in his way, he will open paths before you. you yourself have been through rough times, Alhmadulillah allah challenged you with trials but he also gave you the strength and wisdom to persevere by his grace, mercy and will.

if you were to be confronted with such a situation you would should try to reform her by example. even if your wife gave up prayer (much more important than hijab) you should not immediately jump to divorce

let me tell you a story that a local shaykh once told me:

so the shaykh's teacher who taught him Sahih Bukhari or some other book from the sihah sitta (i believe it was bukhari) once wanted to explain the meaning of the hadith

"if you see something wrong change with your hands, then tongue, or at least feel bad about it..."

so he gave an aexample from his own life. when he got married he found out afterwards that his wife was into pop music, she had grown up in the west after all. Imagine the irony a shaykh who preaches about the importance of abstaining from haram while his wife listens to music....did he divorce her outright? NO.

instead what he started doing was taking her walkman and replacing the music casettes with quran and annasheed cassettes, and would put the music cassettes somewhere else,. he would do this every morning before leaving for work etc.

eventually his efforts had an effect and his wife gave up music. this by no means implies that he did not have a good relationship with his wife or did not fulfill her rights, only that he was dissastisfied with a particular habit of hers which wasn't permissible. and rather then ending it he made an effort to fix the problem.

Brother revert while i applaud your commitment to the deen. it must be pointed out that the deen is very complex and often times complicated in certain areas as such, i hope you will not be offended when i say that you have not grasped many realities of the quran, hadith, and Prohet (pbuh). divorce is a last resort to problems that cannot be fixed. your goal should always be to fix the problem. and that change won't always be a quick one it might take time, years even to reform an individual. and while she may have abandoned hijab, you must also be pleased with the several other good qualities she has that you yourself may not possess.

in the hanafi madhab having a beard is wajib (obligatory, so practically speaking the beard is fardh)...yet it would be absolutely absurd to imagine somebody requesting a divorce because the husband shaved his beard. No if the sister was concerned she would try to talk to him and get other pious muslims to spend time with him and influence him towards the haqq. please listen tot he lecture i provided the link for.

i'm also alarmed that when people pointed out or tried to point out the error in your reasoning you said that you were loyal, tot he quran, hadith, and prophet, meaning that you think that somehow doing what you would do in those cicumstances would be the prophetic solution. please educate yourself int he subject and read the seerah.

another point i want to make if your picky when choosing a spouse an dlookign for an individual that meets certain expectations that totally, cool you can be as picky as you want to be. but after having married somebody, you can no longer jump ship whenever something doesn't go exactly the way you want...even if the shariah has been breached. as a wise saying goes two wrongs don't make a right.
