regarding the occurrence of two contracts at the same time for the marriage of one woman?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : How does the situation look? May Allah reward you with good, in that it is permissible for the two guardians.
The Shaykh : Together?
The questioner : One, yes.
The Shaykh : Together?
The questioner : Even though it is necessary to seek her opinion, or her permission.
The Shaykh : This is not a problem; each one sought permission and she said there is no harm.
The questioner : She tells the second one, "The first one sought my permission..."
The Shaykh : Perhaps he sought her permission, and she thought he was consulting his brother, and they agreed on the second one. Perhaps she had this assumption, and some women are inattentive. She does not say, for example, "My brother has proposed me to another person." This is not a problematic issue.
The problem is how the two contracts occur together for two people? That is the problem. But it is conceivable, not impossible, such that, for example, each of them is in a place, and one says, for example, "I have married you," and she says, "I accept," and the other does the same in one moment, in one moment. It is possible, but it is difficult to ascertain.
The questioner : If he came... and said... but she did not agree at first, but a man came... and said...
The Shaykh : It is not his right; as long as the husband has entered her, her statement is not accepted...
The questioner : Meaning, he did not enter...
The Shaykh : No, there is no qasamah. Qasamah is for blood cases, O Shaykh. No, in any case, we do not accept it after entry. It is never accepted after entry. If he said... after entry, we said we do not accept it.
The questioner : Meaning, before entry.
The Shaykh : Before entry, it is accepted.
The questioner : Even if it was.
The Shaykh : Even if it was on her honor.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Yes, if there are witnesses to the guardian that she is willing, she cannot claim later that she was not willing.
