Ask Qul - QA

Question : #592

Subject:	Fathers permission for marriage
Question:	If my father does not accept me - as his son - getting married, is the marriage still accepted by Allah?
Answer:	Your fathers acceptance does not affect the validity of your marriage since it is not mandatory for the son to have his fathers permission in getting married but try to convince him of your decision since the father has a great position of respect and appreciation from his children in the Islamic point of view.
