Bayhaqi Q14195 — One who contracts marriage unconditionally

قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ: لِأَنَّ النِّيَّةَ حَدِيثُ النَّفْسِ وَقَدْ وُضِعَ عَنِ النَّاسِ مَا حَدَّثُوا بِهِ أَنْفُسَهُمْ.
Imam al-Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Because intention is something said within the self, and people have been excused (from being taken to account) for what they say within themselves."
