Should divorced people be given a fair opportunity to remarry?

Yes. Divorce or widowhood should not automatically make a person socially unacceptable as a future spouse.

What Islam teaches

Islam permits remarriage and does not define a person's worth solely by marital history. People should be judged with justice and honesty.

What you can consider

Evaluate the person on current character, circumstances and compatibility. Discuss relevant previous-marriage matters honestly without humiliating the person.
