Father Cannot Oppress Daughter
A father may only marry his daughter to a man with the intention of safeguarding her
good. If he intends to abuse this privilege, in order to gain some worldly benefit—at the
expense of his daughter’s well-being—then this is definitely forbidden (haram) in Islam.
Shaykh Salih al-Munajjid declared:
It is forbidden to make deals in marriage, such as saying “Let me marry your
daughter and I will give you my daughter or sister in marriage.” Such reciprocal
deals are a form of oppression and injustice, and haram (forbidden).
In such cases of abuse, then the Islamic court could step in to prevent and stop the father
from this. Under Islamic Law, the court system and judges should be the protectors of
the daughter over and above the father, if he oversteps his bounds.
