The Ruling on Preventing Daughters from Marriage to a Suitable Match

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A question was put to your eminence: What is the ruling on preventing daughters from marriage when a suitable suitor has proposed?

Answer:
This is a major sin, one of the major sins. It is preventing a woman from marrying a suitable man whom she has accepted as suitable. She has accepted him under two conditions: that he be suitable for her, and that she has consented to him. It is not permissible to prevent her from marrying him. This is a major sin, one of the major sins. The right of the one who prevents her is dropped, and it passes to the one after him. Yes.
