Question:
What is the meaning of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) statement: "When there comes to you a man whose religion and character you are pleased with, then marry him to your daughter,"[Al-Anfal 8:73] 'Aridh?
Answer:
A great addition, yes. It is clear that the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) indicates that one who prevents his ward from a suitable suitor whom she is pleased with is committing *i'dal* (obstruction of marriage), and this is not permissible. His guardianship is dropped and passes to the next person among the *'asabah* (residuary male heirs). It is not permissible for a person to prevent his daughter, his sister, or his ward from a suitable suitor whom she is pleased with. Yes.
