Obedience to the Father in Marrying His Daughter to One Who Abandons Prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: My father wants to marry me to a man who does not pray. Is it obligatory for her to obey him in this?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for her to marry him, nor is it permissible for her to obey her father in this. Obedience is only in what is good.
