Assalamu Alaikum warahmatullah
I have a question.
Assume that if a Muslim man had sexual intercourse with a virgin from Ahle kitaab and the man repented it after sexual intercourse will she become Halal for him
Because Allah says chaste woman from Ahle kitab.

wa alaykum as salaam wa rahmatullah!

Thank you for your question! According to Zaydi fiqh, women from the Ahl al-Kitaab are not permissible to marry. There are various proofs for this and our imams have elaborated on the verses. According to our imams, the verse does not permit Muslims to marry chaste women from the People of the Book. The verse actually says: {Today all good things are made lawful for thee. And the food of those who have received the Scripture is lawful for thee, and thy food is lawful for them as well as the chaste women of the believers and the chaste women of those who received the Scripture before thee...} (Q. 5:5) Some Muslims believe that this refers to Jewish and Christian women. However, our imams say that this verse refers to those former people of the Book who became Muslim. Allah says similarly in another verse: {And verily amongst the People of the Book is one who believes in Allah and that which was revealed unto thee and that which was revealed unto them—being wholly submissive to Allah—who hath not sold the signs of Allah for a paltry price. They art those who hath a great reward from their Lord. Verily, Allah is swift in account} (Q. 3:199).

It may seem redundant that the verse in Q 5:5 says {chaste women of the believers and chaste women of those who received the Scripture before thee}; however, our imams say that this verse was revealed to assure the Muslims that those Muslims who converted from the pagan Arabs and those who converted from Judaism and Christianity were permissible to marry.

There are many other proofs I can mention but inshaAllah, this is sufficient.

And Allah knows best!
