Q: I have a divorcee woman with 3 teenage kids that wants to marry me. She is very adamant. I do not see her as suitable life partner but I worry that I might sin with her or someone else as I am not yet married. I have been told she does not need a wali, but can we conduct the nikaah ourselves as we are both reasonably old. What is the simplest way we can do nikaah just for ourselves.
A: These types of decisions must be with the consent of her elders, her father or brother, etc. It is not at all appropriate that these decisions be taken independently without her guardian and elders etc.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
