How can I get rid of my obsessions and jealousy related to my husband's sexual past, which cause me distress and fear about the wedding night, especially since he has repented and is committed? Should I talk to him about these fears, or should I seek refuge with Allah from the accursed Satan?

If a servant repents with sincere repentance, Allah will forgive his sins, and even transform his evil deeds into good deeds. It was obligatory for the husband to conceal himself with Allah's concealment and not disclose his past. The wife should think well of her husband and not allow whispers to disturb the tranquility of her life. She should not tell him of her baseless fears stemming from comparisons between herself and others, for a chaste woman is not equal to a dissolute one.
