Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it obligatory that the permission of an unmarried woman be sought in the presence of witnesses?

Answer:
Seeking the permission of an unmarried woman at the time of the contract concluded for her is considered her consent if she remains silent and the contract is concluded for her.
