CHAPTER: DEFECTS IN MARRIAGE

530—If either spouse discovers in the other a defect of which they were unaware before the marriage contract—such as insanity, leprosy, vitiligo, or the like—they are entitled to annul the marriage.

531—If she discovers that he is impotent1, he is granted a period of one year. If the year elapses and his condition remains unchanged, she is entitled to annul the marriage.

532—If she becomes fully emancipated while her husband remains a slave, she is given the choice between remaining with him and separating from him2. This is based on the lengthy hadith of Aisha (concerning the story of Barīra)3: “Barīra was given the choice concerning her husband when she was emancipated4.” Agreed upon5.

533—If the annulment occurs before consummation, no bridal gift is due.

534—If it occurs after consummation, the bridal gift becomes fully due, and the husband may recover it from whoever deceived him.

(1) An *innīn* is a man incapable of sexual intercourse, although he may desire it. (2) Her right of choice is forfeited only if she waives it or knowingly allows him to have intercourse with her, as the Shaykh established in *al-Mukhtārāt al-Jaliyya*, p. 105. (3) An addition from “T.” (4) In “B” and “T”: “when she was emancipated while married to her husband.” (5) Recorded by al-Bukhārī (9:404) and Muslim (no. 1504).

بَابُ العُيُوبِ فِي النِّكَاحِ ٥٣٠- إِذَا وَجَدَ أَحَدُ اَلزَّوْجَيْنِ بِالْآخَرِ عَيْبًا لَمْ يَعْلَمْ بِهِ قَبْلَ اَلْعَقْدِ، كَالْجُنُونِ وَالْجُذَامِ وَالْبَرَصِ وَنَحْوِهَا، فَلَهُ فَسْخُ النكاح. ٥٣١- وإذا وجدته عِنِّينًا١: أُجِّلَ إِلَى سَنَةٍ، فَإِنْ مَضَتْ وَهُوَ عَلَى حاله فلها الفسخ. ٥٣٢- وإذا عتقت كلها وَزَوْجُهَا رَقِيقٌ، خُيِّرَتْ بَيْنَ اَلْمُقَامِ مَعَهُ وَفِرَاقِه٢؛ لحديث عائشة الطويل (في قصة بَرِيرَة) ٣: خُيِّرَتْ بَرِيرَةُ عَلَى زَوْجِهَا حِينَ عَتَقَتْ٤. مُتَّفَقٌ عليه٥. ٥٣٣- وَإِذَا وَقَعَ اَلْفَسْخُ قَبْلَ اَلدُّخُولِ فَلَا مَهْرَ. ٥٣٤- وَبَعْدَهُ يَسْتَقِرُّ، وَيَرْجِعُ اَلزَّوْجُ عَلَى مَنْ غَرَّهُ.

١ العِنِّينُ: العاجز عن الوطء، وربما اشتهاه ولا يمكنه. ٢ ولا يسقط خيارها إلا إذا أسقطته، أو مكنته مع علمها، كما قرر الشيخ في "المختارات الجلية، ص: ١٠٥". ٣ زيادة من: "ط". ٤ في "ب، ط": "حين عتقت على زوجها". ٥ أخرجه البخاري "٤٠٤/٩"، ومسلم "١٥٠٤".
