«الثيب أحق بنفسها من وليها والبكر يستأذنها أبوها في نفسها وإذنها صماتها»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"A previously married woman has more right over herself than her guardian, and a virgin should be asked permission by her father regarding her marriage, and her permission is her silence."
