The claim that the silence of a virgin when asked for permission to marry is a fabrication invented by the proponents of this view
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : He says, may Allah guide us and him: The claim that the silence of a virgin when asked for permission to marry—yes, is this a fabrication? Yes, yes, they invented this fabrication. And because some long-bearded men have invented this fabrication, it ultimately stems from the subjugation of masculinity.
In any case, it is a foolish word. He says: If a woman is asked for permission to marry and she is a virgin, her permission is not her silence. He says: This is a fabrication. The truth is that this is a very serious word! To say that the ruling of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) is a fabrication—I do not know how this is published in the newspaper, and how this writer’s pen runs wild with such things! Unless he is ignorant. We do not know; perhaps he is ignorant and does not know. May Allah guide us and him. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward our father and our shaykh with the best reward, and benefit us all with what we have heard. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. And may Allah send prayers and blessings upon His servant and Messenger Muhammad.
