Al-Halabi : We say, meaning, a person who is far from obedience and far from adhering to the command of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) wants to get married. How do we help him, or is it permissible to help him? And how, and what are the limits and guidelines for dealing with him? This is like, of course, marriage, or as a general case.

The Shaykh : By Allah, the answer may differ depending on the example.

The questioner : Yes, that is fine.

The Shaykh : In this specific example, if the man wants to get married and it is apparent that he intends to improve himself and to guard his chastity from committing what is forbidden, he must be helped no matter how much he deviates. But if this is not apparent from him, then helping someone else is better.

The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : We say, if he does not have this intention, then someone else is better, meaning, better than the one who has this intention...

The questioner : We will give him a good one... he needs evidence.

The Shaykh : I did not understand what you mean by "he needs evidence." What evidence?

The questioner : I mean, we show him... for this man in marriage. So if we marry him off, meaning... we place him with a righteous woman. If she marries him and says, "He is not committed to the commitment that I am..." she will blame...Abu Layla : Why, oh...Abu Layla : You brought me this husband who is not committed, while you are committed... he is not committed and is negligent in prayer, and so on.

The Shaykh : This is a second aspect of the topic—may Allah reward you with good. I am satisfied. Look, our brothers here...
