A contract in a place where there is no authorized official and taking the daughter's consent

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. People asked me to contract the marriage for their son, because no legitimate mu'adhdhin was found in that place, and after the marriage they go to the court to register the contract. What should I do? Do I ask the daughter, or do I suffice with the witnesses to the consent?

The Shaykh:
No, no, you must ask; you must ask the daughter whether she is willing or not. You must take her permission and consent. Yes.

The questioner:
I say: Honorable Shaykh, and Honorable Shaykh.

The Shaykh:
Witnesses; it is necessary to take her consent in the presence of witnesses so that they do not deny it later. Then you found yourself in a dilemma; you must find a way out of this matter. Yes.
