The matter of informing the suitor about the fiancée's infectious disease is referred to specialized doctors. If they determine that it is infectious, then it is obligatory to disclose it, and concealing it is deceit and fraud. If the suitor is not informed of this until after the marriage and consummation, then he has the choice to remain or separate, and he has the right to reclaim the mahr from those of her guardians who deceived him. However, if the disease is not infectious, then there is no obligation to disclose it, and the husband does not have the right to annul the marriage, and he must pay the wife's full rights.
