Is a guardian required to complete the marriage to my divorced wife after I divorced her twice, knowing that her father is deceased and her brothers are young, and I wish to take her back after a divorce that lasted more than two years?
A woman who has been irrevocably divorced does not become lawful for her former husband after her waiting period has ended, except through a new marriage contract, a new dowry, and a guardian (wali). The guardian is a condition for the validity of the marriage. If the father is not present, then the grandfather is the guardian. If the grandfather is not present, then her adult brothers are the guardians, even if they are younger in age, and the guardian must be a legally responsible and mature individual. If there is no guardian from her relatives, then the judge undertakes her marriage. As for legal registration, it is not a condition for the validity of the contract, but it is important for the preservation of rights.
