The Guardian of a Woman from the People of the Book in Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner says: If a Muslim man residing in Western countries wants to marry a woman from the People of the Book, who is her guardian in the marriage?

The Shaykh:
Her guardian is her relative, her guardian is her 'asabah (residuary male heirs). Her 'asabah are her guardians. Yes.

The questioner:
And everything.

The Shaykh:
Or if they are disbelievers, they are her 'asabah. Yes.
