Masaail pertaining to the Wali and Compatibility between spouses

Q: My question is regarding intercaste marriage. Me and the girl I like convinced our parents for intercaste marriage and everything was going well. Everyone agreed but a day before our Nikkah her father refused to do so because of her uncle. They convinced his father that its wrong and put trouble for all of us. Now everyone is willing to do this marriage but her father does not agree. Our Nikkah was not done and we faced challenges. We just want to ask if there is anything that we can do to convince her father to agree to this marriage?

Q: My son is 20 years old and wants to get married. We know that we should not stop him. The girl however is not of good character. On the one hand we are taught to choose a spouse of good character and on the other hand we are taught to forgive and assist with reformation of character. Which takes presidence? Do we allow and guide her or do we say no to the marriage?

Q: Can a Muslim girl marry a Muslim boy without her parents consent? They like each otherand both of them study in a well-known varsity. Both of them are aware of their future but their parents will not allow them to marry now because both of them are not established. Recently they got involved in some sort of physical relationship that they cannot resist. So they want to be married to get rid of the sin. Can they marry now if they want to without their parents consent?

Q:

1. Can a Muslim lady who is a widow and has a child from her first husband, enter into nikaah with a Muslim man without seeking permission from her father?

Q: If an Aalimah who wears full niqab and does not intermingle with men or watch tv movies etc. gets a proposal from a doctor whos a hafiz, which means he probably does khalwat with women and he watches football, would you even tell the Aalimah to consider him? He is praised for his akhlaaq. He also visits a female dentist.

Should the Aalimah even consider him. She has hope of doing amr bil maroof but fears marriage problems thereafter. Her grandfather (Allah enlighten his qabr) was a Shaikhul Hadeeth.

Q: I want to ask about the quality of knowing a religion oriented person prior to selecting a spouse on religion features.

Q: If there is a boy who engages in Salaami and Mawlid, but everything else about him is favourable like akhlaaq and deeni consciousness, is not marrying him because of the 'soofie' side of him a legitimate reason to not marry?
