  1. Assalamualaikum,

    Brother, if she is sincere in her conversion to Islam, then you may go ahead with the marriage (that is to say if she believes in Allah as her Only God and Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam as her guide, Allah's Messenger).

    According to the sharee'ah, you do not need the presence of blood relatives for Nikah, being a man. For a woman, her Wali's permission is necessary. If the girl has no Muslim Mahram, then her Wali would be a pious Muslim man, or even the Imam or Qaadhi.

    But having the relatives is recommended as it would strengthen your relationship with them. Their absence may result in the contrary. Try to convince your parents as hard as possible. It is not impossible, they are your parents. Once she accepts Islam and begins to practice it, they can probably be convinced better. Perhaps then, you could marry her in their presence.

    Respected Brother i'm so Happy hearing about this good news...i mean Nikah. Alhamdulillah you have a good intention because as you already know and Alhamdulillah i'm so happy about it is that Alhamdulillah you are about to complete HALF OF YOUR IMAAN, Masha-Allah!!! But right now one Hadith just pop-up in my mind, that Nabi-e-Kareem (SAW) said thats better to marry a muslim sister who has the lowest of Imaan than a non-muslim. Now, there is something, i don't know your situation. Alhamdulillah you have explained to us whats going on to you but actually its not the whole picture of your situation. Like our Brother Muhammad Waseem said, Subhaan-Allah its nice advice and Alhamdulillah me too i'm Happy hearing someone reverting to Islam.

    So, finally whats need to be said is that make sure she is sincere and ready to practice Deen as taught, thats it.

    So, Brother...may Allah Ta'ala preserve your Imaan and make your Future Wife a Solace of Life, strength of your Imaan. You'll need to work slowly on her Deen, moderate i mean because as you know, she's new but sometime she may learn fast and practice more than you do which Alhamdulillah i make Du'a for.

    So...Congratulation Brother Aamir...Happy Wedding, have a blast on your wedding day but withing limits... 😛
    May Allah Ta'ala ease your way...

    Allah Ta'ala know best...Take Care

    Assalaamu'alaikum Wa Rahmatoullaahi Wa Barakaatuh...
