It is permissible to delegate in the marriage contract, and the original ruling is that the contract made through the father's agency is valid. It is not a condition for the agency to be written or notarized in courts, as agency is valid with any words that indicate permission or acceptance. As for the laws in force in the questioner's country, the reference for that is to the specialists.
