1 min readAlso available in العربية

Parents are not permitted to reject a competent suitor on the pretext that the girl must bear the family's responsibility. She has the right to marry and procreate, and it is not permissible to compel her to forfeit this right. The parents should fear Allah, and the girl should advise them and express her desire for marriage. If they insist on refusing, she has the right to refer the matter to a judge.
