The answer

There is no sin upon a woman if she refuses to marry a righteous man, for marriage is based on choice and psychological comfort. However, if her dislike for him is due to his religion, then she sins for disliking a believer whose love is obligatory. Yet, she is not obligated to marry him even if she loves him for his religiosity if she does not feel psychologically inclined towards him.
