Divorce of the wife who refuses to wear the niqab

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: My wife refuses to wear the niqab, and I have been patient with her for a long time and advised her to wear it. Will I be sinful if I divorce her for this reason?

Answer:
No, you will be rewarded, if Allah wills, if she refuses to cover herself. It is obligatory for you to divorce her. You are on reward for this, and Allah will provide for you someone better than her. Yes.
