So I want to marry her but we dont want to tell her parents about the nikah and will tell them later. Please advise me. Should i marry her withot her parents consent? Is it right and after nikah we have decided that the girl will live with their parents until we tell them about our nikaah.
Answer
The nikaah will be valid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
