Keeping the Proposal Secret and Announcing the Marriage

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Making the proposal secret is what most people do now; they keep the proposal secret.

The Shaykh:
The more knowledgeable view and the validity of the matter: a secret marriage is forbidden. If it is done and then forgiven, there is no harm. Yes, they return it, and the people do not return it; it is not returned.
