I say, and with God's help: The term "foreign woman" refers to a woman who is not among the man's mahrams, meaning she is not a mother, sister, aunt, or daughter, or granddaughter. These are the mahrams for a man, and it is not permissible for him to marry any of them. As for the foreign woman, she is not one of his mahrams, so it is permissible to marry her. And God knows best.
