Question

A woman once tried to make a man fall in love with her. She said a dua, blowed into water and then gave the water to a man to drink to make him fall in love with her. She understood that she has done a wrong thing. She repented. Now whatever she has done, does it make marriage between the above man and woman prohibited?

Answer

The marriage is valid.
