The Ruling on Children from a Defective Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

If the woman is forced into marriage and we say: That the marriage is defective, so what is the ruling on the children?
If the husband knows that the marriage is defective, then his intercourse is forbidden and the children are not his; because he believes that they were born from what is forbidden. But if the husband does not know about this, then his children are attributed to him because they are from a doubtful intercourse.
