Nikaah & Marriage IssuesConditions for the validity of Nikaah

Question

I am a Muslim but I suffer from homosexual feelings. As per advice from many renowned scholars, I got married. I never disclosed this to my wife before marriage. I still have homosexual feelings. So I kept having these thoughts that I have deceived my wife. So I disclosed it to her and she is ok with it as she loves me a lot and I want to stay with her too. I would like to know if this marriage is valid in the eyes of Allah since I hid this truth from her.

Answer

Yes, it is valid.

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