Narrated Ibn 'Abbas (RA): The Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: "A woman who has been previously married has more right over her person than her guardian, and a virgin must be consulted, and her consent is silence." [Reported by Muslim] . Another narration has: "A guardian has no authority over a woman who has been previously married,; and an orphan girl must be consulted." [Reported by Abu Dawud and an-Nasa'i; Ibn Hibban graded it Sahih (authentic)] .
