Navigating Love and Marriage in a Pakistani-American Family

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I’m a 23 year old female, living in USA, I belong to a Pakistani family, and due to that my parents want me to get married to a person whom they choose for me. I have met this guy on the internet, and we’ve been talking to each other since a whole year. I really want to get married to him, but I want my parents to accept that guy as well, so I could have my parents blessing and live a happy life with that guy. Can you please advice me, what should I do? Any type of wazeefa?

Bismillaah

A: It is wrong for you to meet up with any person before marriage. The right procedure is that you speak to your parents and let them make a proper investigation of the person and thereafter you should proceed.

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