We advise you not to separate from your Muslim wife who possesses faith and good character, especially if her Islam has improved and she has committed to Allah's law. Your separation from her may expose her to trials (fitnah) and apostasy from Islam. This would be an injustice to her and a detriment to the reputation of Muslim youth. Strive to convince your family to accept her with wisdom and deliberation.
