The Guardian’s Contracting a Marriage for a Woman Who Has Previously Been Married Without Her Knowledge, Followed by the Death of One of the Spouses

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
My master.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, if the guardian contracts a marriage for a woman who has previously been married without her knowledge, and then one of the spouses dies, does the right of inheritance remain?

The Shaykh:
The guardian’s contract over the lady.

The questioner:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
And he takes her to his house without taking her permission and without her consent. Without taking her permission and without her consent. She has the option. She has the option. But if the husband dies and she has not annulled the marriage, if the husband dies and she has not annulled the marriage, she must observe the waiting period. She must observe the waiting period and she is entitled to the inheritance. But if she annulled it before the husband died, the matter is ended. Yes.
