Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I proposed to a girl, but her family rejected me. I have the intention to propose to her, so some of my brothers told me not to propose to her, in order to block the means to your brother harboring resentment, hatred, or envy toward you. Is that correct?
Answer:
Yes, perhaps you will find it better to avoid her. May Allah reward you with someone else. Yes.
