How should a committed young man act when a female doctor—who is on her way to divorce because her husband prevented her from wearing the hijab—offers to marry him to help her with her religious commitment, and is there any good in accepting her invitation?

If the woman is still married, one must be careful not to corrupt her against her husband, as this is Islamically forbidden. If her husband has divorced her, do not rush to marry her until you inquire about her religiosity and character. If trustworthy people praise her highly, then seek guidance from your Lord and propose to her. If it is easy for you to marry her, then praise be to Allah; otherwise, look for someone else.
