Yes, in Islamic marriages, specific permissions and acceptances are necessary.
Muslim marriages require the acceptance (qubūl) of the groom and the bride. Furthermore, the consent of the bride's wali (custodian) is also essential. According to the provided reference, the wali is typically a male relative, preferably her father. Therefore, while direct permission isn't the only factor, consent and acceptance from the bride, groom, and the bride’s wali are crucial for a valid Islamic marriage.
| Requirement | Description |
|---|---|
| Groom's Acceptance | The groom must willingly accept the marriage. |
| Bride's Acceptance | The bride must willingly accept the marriage. |
| Wali's Consent | The bride's wali (custodian), typically a male relative like her father, must consent to the marriage. |
| Qubul | Qubul which means acceptance. |
In essence, while not framed as needing explicit "permission" in all cases, the wali's consent is indispensable, acting as a form of approval central to the marriage's validity under Islamic principles. The bride and groom must also accept the marriage.
