Is it permissible to marry a girl with the intention of divorcing her on the same day of the marriage contract, in order to cover her, knowing that she had previous wrongful practices, and that her virginity was not lost because of me?

It is permissible to marry her if her sincere repentance becomes evident. You must conceal her past and live with her honorably, without questioning her about it, for repentance wipes away what came before it. However, if she has not repented, do not marry her; instead, seek someone else from among the chaste and righteous women, for you should seek the one who is religious.
