Conditions for the nikaah to be valid
Question
What are the conditions for a Nikah to be valid for a Sunni Muslim girl?
Answer
The nikaah has to be performed in the presence of witnesses to a boy that is compatible to her in deen (piety) and family and social standing.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
