The answer

You and this man have committed a grave sin by disobeying the command of Allah and His Messenger, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should not be alone with a woman who has no with her, for indeed the third of them is Shaytan (Satan)." The fiancé is a stranger to his fiancée, so it is not permissible for him to be alone with her or to touch her. Therefore, you both must offer sincere repentance ( nasuh) to Allah. If you repent, Allah will accept your repentance and forgive your misdeeds, as Allah Almighty says: (And He it is Who accepts repentance from His servants and pardons sins, and He knows what you do) and (Except for those who repent, believe and do righteous deeds; for them Allah will change their evil deeds into good ones. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful). If repentance occurs, then marriage between you two is permissible.
