Question:
We have heard in some books of Islamic jurisprudence that the father may force his son or daughter to marry if he sees a benefit in it?
Answer:
That is not correct. The son or daughter is not to be forced into it.
However, if the child is a minor under the age of nine, he may marry him, and he may marry her if she is a minor and he is a minor under the age of nine, specifically the father.
