Dear all QL friends,

 

I am male from Banglades and my girl friend is from India. Both we are in qatar and my gf under family visa. We both decided that to marry each other if my gf parents doesn't agree about us. Is it possible to get marry by ourselves only. Please advice if anybody have proper information about it. Any suggestion are most welcome.

NO WAY BUDDY!!! We tried for the same for around 2 years...and it was a BIG MESS....Go back to ur home country or India and get it done...Once u get the certificate attested by the Foreign Affairs Ministry in India & the Indian embassy (Qatar)...u can show it to the Shariah Court here and get the girl out on ur sponsorship (if ur salary is above 4500)...without much problems...

 

I just heard this story...about 2 days ago...but thought it was the other way round...The guy being an Indian..and the girl being a Bangali....

 

Anyway...the Indian court/register marriage laws are quite simple...u can just browse thru the net (check for Special Marriage Act..which is for Indian/foreign marriage) and get the basic info...

 

Let me knw ur girl's hometown ...becoz I knw a lawyer & a registrar in Chennai (India)...

 

GOD BLESS U!!!

The only way is to do it the right way, ask your parents to talk to her parents. Discuss this situation peacefully. Islam doesnt allow u to run away and get married, it doesnt even allow u to have a girl friend. Dont get in trouble by making wrong choices, this is not bollywood. Qatar has quite strict rules about such things. Plus you might not only get urself into trouble, but even the parents, so be very careful at what you do. 

 

It's always the small things that make big differences.

IN Qatar especially. So best solution is  to convince her parents.

First of all I will try her parents to be agreed. If they don't agreed then we will go for another way.

First of all, I would advise you to think again before you do this.Think about the consequences and make a wise decision.

 

Now,the age of majority is 21 (if I am not wrong) and I guess u can marry her. But please consult someone familiar with the laws(preferably a lawyer) to learn the problems you may have to confront.

I am from Bangdesh & under compny sponsorship. I am in 30's my GF in 22's from Mumbai (India). She is under family sponsorship. Both we are muslim. My GF Mom is agreed but her Dad is making problem. He is thinking about our different nationality only. That's why we are thinking to get married ourselves if it's possible. As I am from Bangladesh & it's a muslim country also there any boy & girl can get marry in court if they are over 18 years of age. But I don't what about in Qatar.

which sounds rather romantic; running off to get married without parental permission - I guess in the UK a young couple wouldn't be in fear of too harsh a reprisal to their actions.

 

Not sure I'd try it here, let alone if I was from Asia and Muslim.

 

But, what do I know ....

 

gmail, you sound like either a very young gentleman asking the question, or an idiot! - sorry, but, well - you know .......

 

OK - that wasn't very nice of me, it's just I thought that some situations (like parental permission in this case) were a bit sticky to say the least, and that the children would know that!

All this is subject to the girl getting approval from her parents.

Otherwise you willb e deported and the girl sent back to her parents if you do anything else
