Answer:
(Fatwa: 840/840=M/1430)
The Hadith says: ?Nikah does no take place without witnesses.? So, if a boy and girl accept one another as husband and wife, the nikah will not take place between them, rather it is necessary to make proposal of nikah and accept it accordingly in the presence of valid witnesses. The nikah cannot take place on phones too. It is unlawful to perform nikah declaring Allah and the angels as witnesses, it must be avoided.
