Emotional relationships between young men and women outside the framework of marriage are not acceptable Islamically. A marriage conducted without a guardian (wali) for the woman is invalid according to the majority of scholars, and the couple must separate immediately and repent to Allah. If they wish to marry again, it must be done through the woman's guardian. As for the man, the permission of his guardian is not a condition for the validity of his marriage, but he must obey his parents in what is good.
