Six women in their 30s in Madina are preparing to file a lawsuit against their father for not allowing them to get married. The women allege that their father always turns down their suitors claiming that there was no woman in his family to negotiate the marriage terms. In a letter received by Sultan Bin Zahem, chairman of the Advocacy Committee, the women alleged that their father has rejected many suitors despite the fact that they were pious men and of good conduct. The women demanded in their letter that they be given the authority to get married after despair has filled their hearts. Bin Zahem said the women can file a lawsuit against their guardian and the judge will summon him to ask him why he has not allowed his daughters to get married. If his justifications are convincing, the judge would prevent marriages, but if they are not, the judge would use his authority to approve their marriages to appropriate men. The official added that the girls' complaint cannot be considered as disobedience of parents because they are demanding the right to their private social lives.
