Q
Does she have to execute her father’s will that she should marry her cousin (son of her paternal aunt)
A
Praise be to Allah.
You do not have to execute the will mentioned, because the
Prophet (blessings and peace of Allaah be upon him) said: “A virgin should
not be married until her permission is sought.” According to another
version: “The virgin should be asked for permission by her father, and her
permission is her silence.” We advise you to ask Allaah for guidance and
pray istikhaarah, and consult those whom you trust among your relatives and
others who know both people. May Allaah make all good easy for you. End quote.
