Marriage after committing fornication (zinaa)

Question: 649

Can a man/women who is sexually
involved before they are married, atone for their sins by getting married to the same

Answer

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

If both partners repent to Allaah, and the woman is not pregnant, then they are permitted to marry one another.
