The Ruling on the Marriage of a Divorced Woman to Someone Other Than Her First Husband

Question:
Someone other than her first husband, and her husband proposed.

Answer:
She has the choice. If her first husband wants her, she should not prevent him. If she wants to seek a new suitor, there is no harm. She is not to be forced except with her permission. She is not to be forced except with her permission, until she is consulted. Yes. Huh? If a man had intercourse with her from behind, he has committed a sin and must repent. She is not to be divorced, she is not to be divorced from him, and it does not become forbidden for him. But he must repent to Allah. If he approached her from behind, he must repent, and she must repent if she was willing. Both of them must repent to Allah, feel remorse, and resolve not to return to it. It does not become forbidden because of that, and she is not to be divorced because of that. So she remains in his marriage bond.
