Answer:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullahi wa-barakatuh.

It is important to note that premarital sexual relationships are Haraam in Islam.

If one is involved in it, it should be immediately abandoned and one should make abundant Taubah and Istighfaar.

In any case, the Nikah to him/her will be valid.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
