Q: If a Muslim or Muslimah has contracted an S.T.D. for which a cure has not been found, than what is the Islamic verdict on them when it comes to marriage? Are they totally banned from getting married?
A: To avoid disputes and problems later on in the nikaah, they should inform the family that they intend marrying in, of their condition.
And Allah Ta’ala knows best.
