What is the ruling on the wife's guardian concealing her nervous illness from her husband before marriage, and what should be done about it?

Concealing a defect as a type of illness is not permissible in Islamic law, and it is a form of deception against which the Prophet (peace be upon him) warned. Defects are divided into two types: a type that alienates the other spouse and grants them the right to choose to annul the marriage and reclaim what they paid if they are not content with it. The other type does not establish this right. Therefore, if the illness mentioned in the question—given that the husband's unawareness of it throughout this period indicates it belongs to the second type—does not affect the marriage and does not grant the husband the option of annulment, while emphasizing that not concealing it is preferable.
