The answer

The legal marriage is not constituted by the aforementioned verbal exchange between the man and the woman, nor does she become his wife thereby. For a legal marriage contract has conditions and pillars without which it is not valid, including: the guardian (wali), witnesses, and the offer and acceptance. And the marriage of a woman without a guardian is an invalid marriage according to the majority of scholars, whether the woman is a virgin or previously married.
