The questioner:
He asks: Is it obligatory for a man when he wants to get married to mention that he has such-and-such an illness?
The Shaykh:
Yes, indeed. Yes, he should make it clear and not deceive or trick. Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
If they already know, if the wife or her guardian knows this, then he does not need to say, "I have such-and-such." But if they do not know this, he makes it clear to them. Yes.
