Consummation of marriage

Answered by 

Q: For consummation of a marriage to take place, does the hymen of the woman have to break or is it sufficient that the man’s private part went a little inside the woman’s private part? 

Bismillaah

A: It is not a requirement.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
