How can a مسیار marriage with a widowed woman who has children be concluded in light of her guardian's refusal, and what is the Islamic ruling on this marriage?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Misyaar marriage is valid when its conditions are met. Guardians should facilitate the marriage of those under their care, especially divorced women and widows, and not prevent a marriage simply because the woman waives some of her financial rights, as this is her right. However, the guardian has the right to refuse if the marriage is not declared publicly and exposes him to accusation.
