Is it permissible for a father who curses the Divine Being to be the guardian (wali) of his daughter in the marriage contract?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the aforementioned father insulted Allah Almighty, neither under duress nor excused by ignorance, nor overcome in his mind, then he has exited the fold of Islam.
