Marriage to a woman whose father works in a riba (usury or interest) bank

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A man says that he wants to marry a woman, and her father works in a riba (usury or interest) bank. What is the ruling on that?

Answer:
She owes nothing as long as she does not work in it and does not take riba. If she is a righteous woman, there is nothing wrong with it. Marry her. Yes.
