The answer

The majority of scholars hold that the defects warranting annulment are those that prevent intercourse or are repulsive and contagious diseases, while others believe that any defect causing aversion necessitates annulment. A broken rib is not among the defects that, according to the majority, require disclosure, because it does not prevent the purpose of marriage.
