A daughter’s disagreement with her mother regarding marriage to a suitor
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man of religion and good character proposed to a pious girl, and she accepted, and her father accepted him as well. However, her mother refused on the grounds that this suitor has a harsh temperament, saying, “How can you marry him when I have not approved of him?” Her question is: Will this girl be undutiful to her mother if she goes against her will and marries him?
Answer:
She should try to persuade her mother and reach an understanding with her, and soothe her feelings. I do not think she will object, if Allah wills, for the sake of her daughter’s benefit. As for quarreling, that is not appropriate.
