Is it permissible for a mother to stop her daughter from marrying a respectable, God-fearing young man because he didn`t go to college ?

Answer:
It is impermissible to deny a woman her right in getting married except for a lawful reason, and problems can be solved through dialogue. However, she can file a suit in order for the judge to have a say in that regard.

This answer was collected from the official government Iftaa Department of Jordan.
