Is Marriage valid with the Words 'I make myself over to you'
Question: Will the marriage be valid f, in the presence of witnesses, a 25 Year old woman said to a 27 year old man, "l make myself over to you" and he then says, "I accept"?
Answer: The marriage will be valid in the stated case if the couple are Well matched and the witnesses understand that a marriage is taking place (and not Mut'ah). Although they will be regarded as man and wife). having a secret marriage conflicts with the Sunnah because the Hadith prescribes that marriages be made public.t And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
