The hymen may be broken without any immoral action taking place

Praise be to Allah.The hymen may be broken for

various reasons, such as jumping, insertion of fingers, heavy periods, and

other reasons that the fuqaha’ have mentioned.

See: al-Mabsoot

(5/8); Kashshaaf al-Qinaa (5/47) and al-Fataawa al-Kubra

(3/88).

A strong jet of water could

also break the hymen.

Whatever the case, so long

as you are chaste, you should not worry about that, and you do not have to

tell the husband about it.

This has been discussed in

the answer to question no. 84364.

And Allaah knows best.
