Is a proposed marriage valid where each party studies in their own home and they meet when needed, especially with the girl's sponsor rejecting it? Is this rejection by the sponsor considered an act of preventing an act of worship? Does the verse apply to it: "And if they should strive to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, then do not obey them, but accompany them in [this] world with appropriate kindness and follow the way of those who turn back to Me [in repentance]. Then to Me is your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do"? Who is the girl's guardian from whom her hand should be sought, her father or her sponsor? Does the sponsor have the right to make such a decisive decision in the girl's life?

The relationship between a man and a foreign woman under the guise of love or for marriage is a forbidden relationship and often leads to failure. A marriage built on such relationships may lose its luster after its completion. The proposed scenario for marriage here is unacceptable rationally and Islamically, and it is not a basis for building a family. The sponsor's rejection of it was correct. If you are unable to marry, then you must practice chastity as Allah has commanded, and you must sever your forbidden relationship with the girl. The legal guardian of the girl is her father, and he has the right to approve or reject based on the suitor's ability to provide financial support and his competence. The sponsor has no role in legal guardianship; rather, her role is to prevent her from forbidden acts and "the mischief of minors."
