Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammadis His Slave and Messenger.
We have already clarified with evidence the permissibility for a woman to look for a righteous husband to marry provided the Islamic limits are observed, and this is in Fatwa 82471. The most important thing a woman should look for in the men who propose to marry her is religion and moral conduct. However, it is permissible for her to wish for other good traits.
Nonetheless, she should not be so stubborn about such traits that the marriage ends up being delayed and she stays unmarried and has regrets. For more benefit on the qualities of a pious husband, please refer to Fatwa 84221.
The parents – let alone other people – have no right to force an adult daughter to marry someone she does not like, as this is a matter pertaining to her life. She is the one who will taste the sweetness or bitterness of marriage, especially as married life is a long journey and not a temporary matter.
Allaah Knows best.
