The answer

Informing the woman before marriage about the possibility of divorcing her does not affect the contract, and this is not a marriage with the intention of divorce, because it is one of the requisites of the contract. As for the resolve to divorce after a period, there is a difference of opinion among scholars concerning it. The majority validate it, while some scholars stipulate that the woman should not be informed of the intention. The Maliki school of thought deems the contract invalid if the woman is informed of the intention, and valid if she is not informed.
