Is it permissible for a man to divorce his wife with whom he cannot live or be intimate due to an illness her family concealed from him?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If that is the case, then divorce is permissible due to the need for it, given the wife's bad character, poor companionship, and the harm she causes. And if the wife has a defect that prevents intercourse, and they concealed this defect, then the husband has the right to annul the marriage.
