Q: I am divorced and have two children. I had a court marriage in Pakistan but the nikah is not registered online. My husband told me not to tell the imam I am divorced because I didn’t have divorce papers and they needed proof. So I didn’t tell the imam I’m divorced and he wrote that I am a virgin on the papers. Is the nikah valid? I am from UK and my husband is in Pakistan.
A: If the nikaah was conducted correctly, in the presence of two baaligh, Muslim, male witnesses, then the nikaah is valid.
N.B. The nikaah will be valid if it is conducted after the iddat of the previous nikaah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
