I also learned something about a
rukhsah only allowed in the Hanafi
fiqh. If the husband is agreeable and there isn't a valid reason to reject him, but the father insists on being difficult, the judge will act as a
wali, and the woman can marry without her father's permission. Marriage valid.
I told my mother that, and she said, "I don't care. We're Shafi3i
"
