It is impermissible for the woman's guardian to prevent her from marrying a man who is suitable in terms of religious commitment and character. If he does so, he is deemed to be a 'adil (one who unjustly prevents marriage), and his guardianship is forfeited. It is advisable to involve influential people to persuade the guardian; otherwise, the woman may refer the matter to the judiciary.
