Question:
As-Salâmu ‘alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa barakatu
I would like to ask in shaykh for the authorization to get married and I would like to know how can it be done ?
I’m Sorry but my english is very little :)
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
There is general permission to seek marriage. It is usually done via your family seeking a suitable partner for you from among the marriageable young people in your area. Their criterion should be first piety, then other considerations. Once you have found a suitable match it is important to get permission from your Shaykh to proceed with the nikah (marriage).
