Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: My father passed away, and my mother married through a Shari'ah contract, but without a guardian, even though she has two brothers and children. Is this contract permissible?
Answer:
The contract must be renewed. This contract is defective. Without a guardian, it is a defective contract. So it is renewed; her guardian renews it, concluding a new contract for her.
