Pearl of Wisdom

'Pilgrimage is of two kinds: the pilgrimage [performed] for Allah and the pilgrimage for the people. So he who goes on pilgrimage for Allah, his reward is upon Allah and will be Paradise, and he who makes pilgrimage for the people, his reward on the Day of Resurrection will be with the people.'

Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as]
Thawab al-A'mal, p. 74, no. 16 .

Question : #770 Category: Marriage - Nikkah
Subject: Shia-Sunni marriage
Question: As-Salamuu Aleykum!

A married Muslim couple are writing you to ask a question.

We entered into marriage, and our religious contract was made by a Shia akhund (imam) without any witnesses present. He claimed that no witnesses were needed as it wasn't the first marriage for us (we both were divorced individuals), and afterwards we just needed to declare everyone that we got married. I was Shia at the time of the marriage, while the lady whom I married was (still is) Sunni.

Later on I decided to become Sunni, and am now Sunni.

The question is: is the above-mentioned marriage lawful according to Sharia? If not, what steps should we take?

We will appreciate your prompt response.
