Question

There is a man who is in love with me but he is married with 3 kids. He does not want to tell his wife about us because he says it will be problem. But he loves me and wants to make nikaah with me. What should I do? Please advise.

Answer

Speak to your parents and elders. You should have nothing to do with him. Let your parents do all these discussions.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
