According to Shaykh ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Nāṣir al-Saʿdī رحمه الله:

  • If a woman is sensible and mature, she does not need to seek permission from her parents for khulʿ.
  • However, if she is immature, young, or lacking sound judgment, then she should seek permission from her parents, brothers, or guardians.
