The questioner : ... A married woman who knows that a man intends to marry her with this intention, meaning she might refuse, is he obligated to inform her of this intention before the contract?
The Shaykh : No, he is not obligated, as long as custom is established in this regard. However, if custom has not been established in this regard, then yes, he must make it clear to her. But if custom is established in this regard and the woman serves the husband in the household’s interests, there is no need to stipulate it.
