Is it permissible to marry a girl who does not know much about the teachings of Islam and refuses to wear the hijab for family reasons, while her father opposes the marriage because of the young man's commitment to the Sunnah and a beard?
First: Relationships between foreign men and women are forbidden.
Second: A religious woman should be chosen for marriage, for the world is a provision, and the best of its provisions is a righteous woman.
Third: The girl's family must be aware of your religious commitment, and that it is the foundation of your life, and they have no right to control your religious privacies.
If the girl's father refuses your marriage to her because of your commitment, or if the girl follows her family's commands and refuses to commit to religious practices such as the before marriage, then we do not advise you to proceed with this marriage, due to the problems it may cause.
However, if the family accepts you as you are without conditions, and you know that the girl will help you in your religion, then there is no harm in marrying her.
