Consulting one's elders with regard to marriage

· 10 Jumada II 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I like a person from my paternal family and I want to marry him. He is the son of my father's own sister. My parents are dead against this and they don't want to let this happen at any cost. They dislike the boy's family very much and also they are taking up illegal (black magic) activities to break this relation and get me back. Please suggest how to convince them or what to do?

Answer

Discuss the matter with your parents or your family elders.

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