Is it permissible for a girl to marry with the consent of her brothers and the refusal of her paternal uncles, knowing that her father is deceased and her brothers are adults?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The brother has more right to marry off the woman than the paternal uncle, unless there is a legitimate religious impediment. If her brother marries her off, the marriage is valid, and the uncle has no right to refuse it unless there is a legitimate religious justification.
