Is it permissible for a Muslim woman who has entered into a "white marriage" with a non-Muslim man in France to marry a Muslim man while retaining the first marriage until its term expires?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is forbidden for a Muslim woman to marry a non-Muslim, and such a marriage is null and void, not permitting the non-Muslim to enjoy her. The Muslim woman is not required to wait for the expiration of the term of this invalid marriage. It is permissible for her to marry a Muslim with a valid, lawful contract that fulfills all conditions and pillars.
