Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: My sister has reached forty-five years of age and is not married, and I am striving to be dutiful to her and treat her well. What do you advise me to do?

Answer:
Treat her well, be dutiful to her, and protect her until Allah grants her a husband to marry. Do not be too strict in accepting a husband as long as he is upright in his religion; then accept him. He is upright in his religion, so accept him. Yes.
