The father's refusal to marry off his daughters
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This woman says that her father refuses to marry her and her sisters to strangers who are far removed from the family. She says, "We have grown old in age, so what is your advice to us and to him?"
Answer:
By Allah, look, if one of his relatives speaks to him and advises him against this action, this is 'udl (preventing a woman from marriage). If he persists, it is necessary to go to the judge.
