—the stipulation is void, yet the marriage itself remains valid.

If he stipulates that she must be Muslim and she later turns out to be a woman of the Book, or he requires her to be a virgin, attractive, of noble lineage, or free of a defect that would not on its own invalidate the marriage, and the reality proves otherwise, he may annul the marriage.

Should she be emancipated while married to a free man, she has no right of choice, whereas if her emancipation occurs while she is married to a slave, she does.

Section
If a wife discovers that her husband has been castrated or that so little of his organ remains that intercourse is impossible, she may annul the marriage. When his impotence is established by his own confession—or by witnesses to that confession—the judge grants him one year from the day they litigate; if he consummates within that period the marriage stands, otherwise she may annul.

If she herself admits that he has had intercourse with her, he is not deemed impotent, and if at any time she says, “I am content with him though he is impotent,” her option lapses forever.

Section
An imperforate vagina (ratq), a fleshy obstruction of the vaginal canal (qarn), offensive genital odor (ʿafl), hernia (fatq), chronic involuntary emission of urine or stool2, continuously discharging sores in the genital area, hemorrhoids, anal fistula, castration, consumption (tuberculosis), crushed testicles, the clear3 presence of a hermaphrodite condition in either spouse, insanity—even for a moment—vitiligo, and leprosy: every one4 of these defects entitles the other spouse to annul the marriage, even if the defect appears after the contract or the other party suffers from the same defect. Whoever accepts the defect, or whose conduct shows acceptance after learning of it, forfeits the right of annulment.
