Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: A man pays a sum of money to another man so that he will marry his wife, who has been divorced three times. The man entered into a marital relationship with the woman, but he did not divorce her. Is this marriage forbidden in its origin?
Answer:
By Allah, this is brought before the judge. I am not a judge. This is a valid contract that must be brought before the judge to look into it. Yes.
