isn't it 16??
in regards to younger brother...I think the person that should stand as wali is someone responsible.

but I don't know if this is true but if a women reaches a certain age eg..60 plus and gets married would she require wali???

If you are financially independent and not a virgin you don't need a wali

If you are financially independent and not a virgin you don't need a wali

That means most feminists don't need a wali then.

Lol @ scholar!!! you should ask sheikh google, if you don't like certain opinion, you keep searching until you find opinion that you want it and goes with your thinking!

Abdiwahab was born in the great drought of 1974 in Somalia. He's going to be 40 this year... or maybe he turned 40 with 1/1/14 already passed.

Oday 252 you better invite me to the meher when you settle down
But don't try to find a way around asking the father's permission

If you are financially independent and not a virgin you don't need a wali

Only the Hanafi School holds this opinion if I'm not mistaken? If it was that simple surely we'd be eating good?

Is this one of those "conflicting yet valid" rulings? Muslims are now a days having trouble swimming through that vast "grey" area between what is permissible and what is not, largely due to the discrepancies of sheik's opinions..

zulaikha, is very hard for academic researcher leave alone random person. original, jamhour "opinions " lost in too much wording issues and linguistic argument. things went to, what, this word, in arabic, of course by imam..X or Y. so now government law placed so we can rule one ruling instead samatic arguments of wording.

in my court by law i need her wali, if not want to approve, we ask his reasoning and comes down to family issues and not religion based.

How can you go to her brother when her father is alive? Even if he's soaking it up in the Bahama beaches he must be informed. It's his daughter.

Would you want your daughters hand to be requested from your son instead of you? It's a dishonour!

Ninkan wa riywaayad socota..maalinba sheeko xariir la imow

salool, AW, thinks he is 18 forever. marki 3azoobi nimada laku raaqu, sida ba lo sa3sa3a.

Colonel,

Of course saaxib. Can you make it to the USA ? It will be a memorable one: dancing, music, a roast, day time affair ! I will show you how odeey AW used to kick it back in the day, Soul Train style.


FAH,

Bingo, I am a couple years older than your eedo.


Marques,

I am just asking out of practicalities. Her brother is a cool man. For expediency, he could step in for his dad if the old man approves (if he disapproves, then its a whole another problem).


Salool,

Sheik Hyperactive,

Adeer, so her brother qualifies. Good news !

AW, 16 is adult if he is mature and sane person. but is legal age where you are?

i always say, respect the law of the land or move.

plus, naag ayaduba kaleged take care of her self, even send her father billkeesa. my motto is, if one responsible their financial affairs can marry and that is hanbali opinion.

hanbali, conciser marriage as business deal/contract, if she doesnt need her father's permission to sale and buy , she doesnt need their permission but she has to let them know.

sheikh hyper,

duqan wuxu raba inu wiilka yar intu nacnac siiyo gabadha iska kaxaysto

Sheik Hyper,

Thank you for the additional information. It has been incredibly useful.
