Does a woman’s signing of the marriage contract indicate her consent, even if she is crying?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... .

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner : A woman’s signing of the marriage contract is not sufficient.

The Shaykh : She may be coerced because she is crying. Signing the marriage contract is an indication that she is consenting, but as the brother who asked the question says: she was being asked about the contract while she was crying, so she was coerced. Yes.
