Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what about the fornicator who had previously been married, but at the time of the fornication he was divorced from his wife?
Answer:
Yes, even if he was divorced. If he had been married for fifty years and then fornicated after fifty or sixty years, and the evidence was established against him, he is considered a married man (muhsan) because he attained the status of being married, he knew the value of marriage, and he knew the value of honor. Yes.
