Marrying a daughter before her birth

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it valid to marry a daughter before she is born, if a man says, “If a daughter is born to me, I will marry her to your daughter,” and the other man says, “I accept”?

Answer:
The wife does not exist. This is not permissible. Marriage is not permissible without the identification of the two spouses and their consent. Identifying the two spouses and their consent are among the conditions for the validity of the marriage contract. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
