Should I obey my parents and marry the girl they chose for me?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
My parents are forcing me to marry a girl of their choice against my likeness. I tried to obey them and got engaged with that girl. But, I am not satisfied and don’t want to marry her. This thing keep me disturbed all the time that how would I spend my whole life with a girl I don’t like. This is urging me for bad behavior with parents and others that would cause the wastage of my virtues. In this case should I obey my parents? and when I have got engaged with that girl?

If you do not like that proposal then you should cancel it before nikah in any case, because the situation gets critical after nikah and it brings far reaching wrong outcome. You should terminate this proposal yourself or by anyone else wisely.
