Question:
Regarding a young girl, if she is forced to marry?

Answer:
If she is a virgin, she is not forced. As for a young girl under the age of nine, such as when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) married Aishah, the one who married her to him was al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him).
