The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

If the wife is refusing to put Hijaab, is it wrong to divorce her?

Answer

There are two aspects here:
One is I?elaam (to inform) and the other is I?emaal (to make others practice). Informing is merely a means of making others practice. The purpose (to make others practice) should be placed first and then wisdom should be applied in trying to achieve the purpose.
