Defects in a Woman Being Proposed in Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
A man proposed to a woman, and it is known about this woman that she has a congenital defect, but this defect is hidden and not obvious, and there is hope for its cure, such as vitiligo or albinism. Should the suitor be informed?
If a man proposes to a woman who has a hidden defect, and some people know about it, then if the suitor asks about her, he must be given a clear explanation, and this is clear. If he does not ask, he should be informed of it, because this falls under the category of giving advice, especially if it is something that is not expected to end. As for what is expected to end, it is less severe. However, there are things that may end, but slowly, such as vitiligo, if it is true that it can be cured. Up to now, I have not known that it can be cured. So, a distinction is made between what is expected to end soon and what is expected to end after a long time.
