The validity of a marriage contract witnessed by the non-Muslim brother of the wife

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: A Muslim man married a non-Muslim woman, and the witness to the marriage contract was her brother, who is a non-Muslim. Is this contract valid?

Answer:
By Allah, this is a matter for the court, my brother. We are not asked about contracts; these are matters that follow the courts. Yes.
