The ruling on a fiancé marrying the woman with whom he committed zina before the marriage contract

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A fiancé committed zina with his fiancée two days before the marriage contract, and then he married her. Is this marriage valid?

Answer:
This marriage is not valid because she is a woman who commits zina, until she repents with a valid repentance and her waiting period ends. That is, with these two conditions: that she repents with a valid repentance, and that he also repents, because the one who committed the sin is also not to be married until he repents. They both repent with a valid repentance, and they wait until she exits the waiting period by menstruating three times, so that it is known whether there is a fetus in her womb. After that, the marriage contract is made with her. If she gives birth to a child, it is a child of zina, a child of zina, and is not attributed to the father. It is only a son of hers from the zina, may Allah protect us from that.
