Mother getting the daughter married without the permission of the father
Question
I have a lot of proposals for my daughter but they are not good. They dont pray and haram income. One good proposal came, he prays and is always attending the masjid and halaal income Masha Allah, but her father refused him because he is not from Yemen, he is from Libya and half Egyptian. Can I marry my daughter by force with out my husband's consent in this situation because he would rather give her to a zany as long as he is from Yemen then a practicing Muslim from a different country. What can I do in this situation.
Answer
As long as he is an Arab the nikaah will be valid.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
