The ruling on the guardianship of sons over their paternal cousins
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
In some Bedouin tribes, they exercise guardianship over the daughters of their paternal cousins. If a suitor proposes to her and then takes possession of her, a son of her paternal uncle comes and says:
The Shaykh:
No, the guardianship is not valid.
The questioner:
But this is your ruling.
The Shaykh:
The guardianship is not valid; this is a sin and injustice.
