I have married secretly.

Question

I have married secretly. The marriage has not been consummated. Will prolonged secrecy affect the validity of the Nikah?

Answer

Although a secret nikah is valid, it is not advisable. The secret will not remain secret for too long. The nikah will remain valid even if they do not meet for years. The nikah will end only if the husband issues Talaaq.
