Is it permisicible for a man who doubts his ability to beget or is partly impotent to marry?
Answer
According to Shariah, a wife has the right to annull her marriage if her husband is impotent. The judiciary will grant him one year's respite for medical treatment to overcome his impotency. Therefore, a man should not marry if he is impotent until he undergoes medical treatment and overcomes the impotency.
