Question

My wife and I divorced. She went on to marry a Hindu through a hindu ceremony in India and now wants to come back to me. Is this possible Islamically?

Answer

If she is honest and truthful and she is really remorseful of what she has done previously and sincerely regrets then she can remarry you.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
