Then after 2-3 days boy starts saying that he did nikkah with proper procedure and 2 people are witness but girl was unaware of all this and she also do not accept it. is their nikkah done?
Answer
Wa’alaykum as Salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu,
If the girl did not utter anything verbally, the Nikah is not valid.
And Allaah Ta’aala knows best
