The Ruling on the Fiancé's Brother Refusing to Agree to Her Suitor
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: A man came to propose to my sister, and everyone agreed except her brother,
The Shaykh:
a proposal, a proposal, yes, for a proposal.
The questioner:
to propose to my sister, and everyone agreed except her brother. What is the ruling?
The Shaykh:
If she is pleased with the husband and he is suitable for her, suitable for her, and she has accepted him, then her brother has no right to prevent her. If he prevents her, the guardianship transfers to another of her awliya (close friends of Allah); his guardianship is dropped because he is a man who withholds his ward from marriage, as there is no reason for his refusal. She has accepted him and the man is suitable, so the guardianship transfers to another of her awliya, and he becomes one of those who withhold their wards from marriage.
