The ruling on a father marrying off his daughter against her will
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for the one in authority to marry his daughter to whomever he wants against her will, when she does not consent?
Answer:
No, this is not permissible. If she does not consent, the contract is invalid. Mutual consent is a condition, as you have learned. One of the conditions for the validity of the contract is the mutual agreement of the two spouses, where each one is pleased with the other, and there is no coercion.
