Is it obligatory to inform a prospective husband about being infected with the herpes virus before marriage, knowing that the infection did not result from an illicit relationship and fearing misjudgment or rejection?

The suitor must be informed about theps disease before the marriage contract. There is no need to inform him at the beginning of acquaintance, but it is preferable to inform him if he intends to propose so that he is fully aware. The interaction between the suitor and the fiancée should be within the limits of Sharia regulations, because he is a stranger to her, so it is not permissible to contact or speak except to the extent permitted by Sharia.
