The answer

A marriage is not legally concluded except in the presence of the woman's guardian (wali), two just witnesses, a dowry (mahr), and a formula indicating the marriage contract. Therefore, your agreement to the girl's statement "Will you marry me?" is not considered a legally valid marriage.
