The guardianship of the marriage contract in the presence of a maternal brother

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: My sister’s husband died, leaving behind a son and two daughters, and none of his relatives are present, neither a father, nor a brother, nor an uncle.

Answer:
Three. My sister’s husband died, leaving behind a son and two daughters, and none of his relatives are present, neither a father, nor a brother, nor an uncle. I am his maternal uncle and their maternal uncle. The question is: Do I take charge of their marriage contracts in the presence of only a maternal brother? This is a matter for the court, because establishing the guardianship for the marriage or anything else must be under the supervision of the judge. Go back to the court, yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you
