The answer

We have not found any statements from scholars regarding taking compensation in exchange for marrying a woman to conceal her [sin]. It is not permissible for someone who knows of her adultery to marry her except under two conditions: repentance and purification of the womb. The intention of concealing her [sin] does not justify marriage without the fulfillment of these two conditions. Furthermore, it is forbidden to take compensation for a prohibited act.
