Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner from outside the country says: It often happens in our country that a man commits zina (unlawful sexual intercourse) with a girl and she becomes pregnant. They attribute the child to him and marry them, and the matter ends there. Is this permissible in the Shari'ah?
Answer:
No, this is an invalid matter. Yes.
