Recently I got some new info about infidelity and Islam.
My roommate told me that if a woman cheats on her husband and then gets divorced she cannot marry the man she cheated with because he is haraam to her.
This really didnt make any sense to me. Also, can someone give the actual Islamic view about this.
Greatly appreciated!
Re: Infidelity
The english word for the woman is slut. BTW, if she gets a divorce she has to marry someone else and get divorce from this guy before she re-marries her ex-husband- thankfully I have never been in such a weird situation but I believe Asif Zardari is in such a situation.
Re: Infidelity
It’s the truth what your room mate has told you, in Islam the lady can not marry her husband, until she marry’s somebody else then she can re-marry her husband. This conjunction is put in place, so that the man & women really think deep about talaaq (divorce), marriage is not a joke:clown: . This is one halaal thing that Prophet Mohammed ‘PBUH’ really got upset over and did not like it when they heard this happening between married couples.
Re: Infidelity
Guys,
She's wondering if the woman can marry the man she cheated with..not the husband she just divorced.
Re: Infidelity
thankyou Maniac!
Re: Infidelity
She cant marry the man she is sleeping with cuz he is haraam to her yet sleeping with him is not haraam- what a pathetic joke! Seems like a gori who converted to Islam but cant get rid of her "amazing" high school days.
Re: Infidelity
In my humble opinion, this place is ABSOLUTELY not a right place to ask questions concerning Islamic Rulings. I agree with Sadiyah that Neem Hakeem Khatra-e-Jaan! Neem-Mullah - Khatra-e-Imaan
When you ask for Islamic point of view at such places, remember, most of the people who logs on here have knowledge of Islam and its ruling based on a confined 'Read-a-few-books-and-understanding-of-them-by-one's-own-common-sense-than-understanding-based-on-quran-and-sunnah' ...
I think there is hardly anyone who studied Fiqh and various rulings and also ahaadeeth for that matter with that deepness under the supervision of a knowledgable teacher.
Here, you will get a 'Islamic Ruling' by various people. You may find the correct rulings too but you will find it very hard to know which one was correct. You will find Munkareen--e-Hadeeth singing their own songs. You will find Barelvies bashing Wahabies/Salafies and Wahabies giving fatwah for a barelvi being Kaafir.
Shias and Sunni will have their own one-and-half brick mosques somewhere...
In between, some Ahmadies will try to come in and then argument over them being Kaafir will take its toll and thread will eventually be locked.
Ask a Faqeeh.

It can be true ONLY if the person she cheated with was some immediate relative of the man (like nephew etc.) but if the person is not related then she can marry him.
Re: Infidelity
Who says sleeping with him is not haraam ?
Re: Infidelity
i dont see any reason why the man wud be haraam to her....
Re: Infidelity
I have heard that too 
Re: Infidelity
what a pathetic joke that when a man is sleeping and cheating on his wife, he can easily say Ohh I plan to marry her and then marries her as a second wife. Does that mean his Infidelity will be forgiven? 
these men should be called whores.
Re: Infidelity
Jal Pari and Mulz, you two need to take a chill pill and stop putting words in peoples mouths :)
Cheating is a sin equally bad for man or woman. Forgiveness is in the Hands of Allah and those they cheated upon. And Allah is fair.
Re: Infidelity
Maniac 
my comments were rather towards general thinking in the thread. When a man cheats on his wife it is never looked upon same way. He always gets away with saying Ohh I can do it becuz I will marry her and wash away my sins…becuz i am allowed to marry 4. But when a woman cheats she is literally labeled as slut and stoned to death in some countries. Please show me one example where the man was stoned to death for cheating on his wife. No doubt this word is ruled by men.
Re: Infidelity
So I guess there isnt any ruling on this matter that atleast GS is aware of
Re: Infidelity
I submitted the question posted and following is the response that I received:

It is unlawful for a Muslim to marry a person who is in the habit of fornicating and who is unrepentant. It does not matter if the other party to the marriage is the same person who committed fornication with that person in the first place or someone else. The fornicator or fornicatress must repent before anyone can marry that person.
Allah says: “The adulterer cannot marry anyone but an adulteress or an idolatress, and the adulteress cannot marry anyone but an adulterer or an idolater. To the believers, such a thing is forbidden.” [Sûrah al-Nûr: 3]
He also says: “Women impure are for men impure, and men impure for women impure and women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for women of purity.” [Sûrah al-Nûr: 26]
True and sincere repentance takes either party out of the ruling of this verse.
Therefore, someone who used to commit fornication and has repented cannot marry someone who either continues to commit fornication or is simply unrepentant about having done so.
Only in case both of them have truly and sincerely repented for their sinful deed and thereafter abstain from it will it be permissible – merely permissible – for them to marry one another.
And Allah knows best.
And may Allah’s peace and blessing be upon our Prophet Muhammad.
