Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Often the two witnesses testify to a marriage contract, and they do not know about the wife's consent; is she consenting and pleased, or not? So is the testimony of the two on the contract, or on the consent of the two spouses?

Answer:
On both, on the consent of the two spouses and on the contract, and that this contract has fulfilled its conditions.
