The Book of Marriage, Breastfeeding, Divorce, Mutual Oath-Swearing, and Manumission-03a
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: And Ibn Abi Umar narrated to us, and Sufyan narrated to us with this chain of narration, and he said: Sunan al-Bayhaqi 10:1039.
The Shaykh : Here it is explicitly stated, regarding what?
The student: The father.
The Shaykh : The father... of the virgin. This indicates that the statement of some scholars that the father can force a virgin to marry is a weak opinion with no basis. In fact, the Sunnah contradicts it. Therefore, it is not permissible for a man to marry off his ward without her permission or without her consent, whether he is her father, brother, son, or anyone else. Yes.
The previously married woman has more right over herself than her guardian, and the father of a virgin must seek her permission regarding her marriage, and her silence is her permission. He sometimes said: 'And her silence is her consent.'
