Question

related to fatwa 13964, I wanted to ask, if a girl who is already married(still hindu but will revert to islam) and ask for getting married to me and her husband knows about this and even if he says that i should accept her, then in that case can i say anything to girl? Right now i have said no to girl as i feel girl should try to forget about me after marriage. is it right decision from my side? And when can i accept her or when can i say yes? And what can i do when my parents are not in favour of my marriage with this girl? What is the reward for getting married to a girl after reverting her, being aware that girl reverted to marry me.

Answer

If the girl accepts Islam and her husband refuses to accept Islam, then her marriage will terminate. You may marry her after 3 menstrual cycles.

In principle, whosoever becomes a means of guidance for another person and to accept Islam will be immensely rewarded. Such a person have saved another from the eternal fire and displeasure of Allah.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
