Is a woman's marriage valid if the marriage contract was concluded twice: the first time in court with the phrase "I marry myself to you" in the presence of the guardian and two witnesses, and the second time with the guardian saying to the groom "I marry my sister to you," but without the presence of the original two witnesses? And is it necessary to repeat the contract?

The marriage is invalid if a woman marries herself, according to the majority of jurists, even if it takes place in the presence of her guardian (wali). However, if the marriage is conducted in accordance with the Maliki school of thought, which does not require a guardian and permits a woman to marry herself, then this marriage is valid and should not be annulled. If it is possible to renew the contract fulfilling all conditions and pillars, that would be more cautious. As for what occurred after leaving the court, it is not valid due to the absence of witnesses, and among the conditions for witnesses is that they be male. Thus, the testimony of women is not accepted in this matter, according to the preponderant opinion.
