The ruling on concealing a defect in the prospective bride from the prospective groom

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Also, this questioner says, may Allah preserve you: If the prospective bride has a chronic or congenital illness, what is the ruling on concealing that from the prospective groom?

Answer:
This is not permissible; it is forbidden and deception. One must disclose any defect she has, just as the prospective groom must disclose any defect he has and not deceive her. Yes.
