The answer

This person must offer sincere repentance to Allah Almighty for committing a great sin and a major transgression. If the woman repents and purifies herself from adultery, then marrying her is permissible. However, before repentance, there is a difference of opinion, and the preponderant view is that it is forbidden, which is the position of the Hanbalis.
