- Is one of the maternal uncles of the girl entitled to marry her off in the event that her father refuses due to stubbornness or his setting impossible conditions, and is there a religious ruling that confirms this? - What is the religious ruling on a father who severs ties with his daughters and neither sees nor spends on them?
A man cutting ties with his daughters and abandoning their financial support is a dereliction and neglect of his duties. He must repent, reconnect with his daughters, and fulfill their right to financial support. The mother will be rewarded for her upbringing, and she can take the matter to a judge to demand her daughters' right to financial support. The father's guardianship (wilayah) in marriage is established and does not cease due to non-maintenance. If the father prevents his daughter from marrying a suitable man without a legitimate Shar'i reason (idhal), then the girl or her representative can take the matter to a judge to nullify his guardianship.
