He didnt tell me that he had marry that women.

Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

 

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

My husband and I donīt live in the same apartment due to some problems we had. But we love each other and donīt want to divorce. His mother tinks that we are divorced and forced him to marry an other woman,otherwise he is not her son she told her. So he did as she sade(due to, paradise is at your mothers feets). He didnīt tell me that he had marry that women before there marriage and I believe that she dosnīt know about me.

Is it permissible to do like this?

Answer:

 

Marry second wife

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

It is not an obligation in Shariah Law to take the permission or consent of the first wife for a believer to seek to marry another woman, but it would have been only piety and righteousness on the part of the person to have made it absolutely clear to the second wife that he is already married and has a prior wife. If the person chose to practice deceit when seeking to marry again, he will be held severely accountable for his deceit and his dishonesty in the Court of Allah Subahnah.

 

In any case, regardless of whether he informed his new wife that he is previously married or not…… if all the obligatory conditions of an Islamic ‘Nikaah’ were honored, the marriage itself will be considered lawful, legal and valid in the Sight of Shariah Law and of Allah Subhanah.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
