Father's Permission for Virgin Girl
Issue No. 2037- A virgin girl should obtain permission from her father or paternal grandfather for marriage but if she is rashīdah, (i.e., she is able to decide what is in her interest) and according to the prominent figures of the girl’s family the man and woman suit one another, however, the girl’s father disagrees, then there is no need for his permission anymore. The same ruling applies if a girl had married in the past.
