What is the role and responsibility of witnesses in a Nikah ceremony?

Can girls be the witness in or during Nikaah? (Kya Khawateen bhi Nikaah mein gawaah banai jaa sakti hain?)

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

(Fatwa: 1201/912/L=1431)

If there are two women along with one man then they can become witness in nikah. Only women though many cannot become witness.

Allah knows Best!
