Performing Nikaah after obtaining permission from the girl

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I just came to the US and I want to get married next year when my daddy goes to Africa, but I would not be there because I will be in school by that time. Is it permitted for the man to meet my parents and get married to me when I am not there?

Bismillaah

A: Yes, after they have obtained your consent the nikaah can be done in the presence of adult male witnesses.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
