The woman’s guardian should not marry her to anyone except a man who is practicing his deen and has good manners. If someone marries his daughter to a wrong-doer, Allah will be angry because he is responsible for causing her to loose her Deen. Once a man came to Al-Hasan ibn Ali and said: “I have a daughter. To whom should I marry her?” He answered: “Marry her to a man who has taqwa. If he loves her he will be generous to her and if he does not like her he will still treat her well.” For this reason Imam al-Ghazzali warned the guardian: “Take care of your daughter because once she is given in marriage she will be in the care of another and if he is bad she will be trapped.”
