Marriage to One's Brother's Fiancée After He Waives His Claim

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you. This brother, the questioner, says: My brother, Honorable Shaykh, proposed to my maternal aunt's daughter, but he did not contract the marriage. After the proposal, he said he no longer wanted her, so they transferred the proposal to me. Is it permissible for me to marry her?

Answer:
There is no impediment to that if he waives his claim to his fiancée for you, and she has consented. If the fiancée has agreed to this and her guardian desires it, there is no impediment to that.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
