The Father’s Rejection of the Young Men’s Proposals to His Daughters
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Many young men come forward to propose to his daughters, but my father rejects this on the grounds that it is not a matter of religion. Is this one of the matters of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance (jahiliyyah)?
Answer:
You and your father will be reconciled when we intervene in a dispute between you and your father; they will reconcile, if Allah wills. Yes.
