As far as political views, I wouldn't care too much. The only that will get to me is if they are gung ho on wars or something, or have the view that the USA is the absolute best country EVAR and everyone else's lives take second fiddle to American ones...then there might be a personality disconnect that I couldn't break through right there that I think would affect a person's character.
As far as religion...I care quite a bit. The "label" of a religion is absolutely useless IMO. Being Muslim means nothing unless you practice what you preach - same goes for Christians or any other followers of a religion (ALLLLTHOUGH I think I would make an exception for Scientology
I prefer not to spend so much money on a scamm...errr cult...err religion
). I've also met MANY people who carried ALL the good traits of religion but were not necessarily into organized religion themselves or particularly religious. I've also met people who were much more spiritual rather than religious in a dogmatic sense...and it made me think that God will know what is really in our hearts as he ultimately judges us...thus one who MIGHT have picked the "right" religion but cares little to none should clearly should not be given an advantage over someone who actually cares about God and wanted to pursue God but ended up picking a "wrong" religion. If God is supposed to be about Justice, then there is no reason for God to ultimately shun those who actually interested in him and tried to learn more about his magnificence.
Basically, I would look for the embodiment of a good Muslim. They don't have to be Muslim and I realllly wouldn't care because there was a point in my life where I discovered a lot of guilded behavior among people I knew and it made me realize a label means nothing. Christian, Non Religious, Atheist...its all fine. So I guess -- I'm interested in someone who finds God interesting, and chooses to learn or pursue more about it through any facet possible.
Of course the kicker is that if we had kids I'd want them to be raised as Muslims~ they can make their decisions later in life, but I would at least want to educate them about Islam because I would want to make sure that even if they weren't Muslim they'd call out the B.S. on 90% of this current trend where people bash Islam based on erroneous facts.
As for dating...I know for many people dating is entirely fine, but marriage is a massively different issue. To me, I'd rather date to marry so I'm not too interested in casual dating...
I wouldn't want someone to share my views exact though...I'm interested in debate, and talking and learning about other ideas and cultures (Well so as long as I don't need to drink or eat pork
) and to find a "Yes Man" (or should I say "Yes Woman"
) would be a little boring
