Listening to one's parents

Question

I got to know a person with a rare illness who is bedridden for years. I am willing to marry him but my parents consent is doubtful. Can I marry him to help him to protect his chastity? Please advise me on this.

Answer

If your parents are not willing then I suggest that you leave this idea.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
