Is this corrupt husband proof of God’s wrath upon the questioner and that she is among the wicked women, especially since she repented to God from a previous recklessness and asked Him for a righteous husband?

If you are repentant, then you are among the good women, and your marriage is not a sign of Allah's wrath, for repentance erases what came before it. We advise you to strive diligently to reform your husband and help him repent, maintain prayer, and avoid prohibitions. If he insists on committing evil deeds, then it is better for you to seek a ’ (divorce initiated by the wife), because it is recommended for a woman to seek khula’ from her husband if he abandons the rights of Allah Almighty.
