Q: I proposed to a girl who accepted me at first, but after a short period of time she refused to go on with the marriage. Later, she agreed once again and the engagement continued for one year. One day, I visited her in the presence of her brother, and we had a dispute until I became very upset with her. I said to her in the presence of her brother that I was no longer her fiancé and she could consider me as her brother, i.e. I am unlawful to her as her brother. I said this while in a state of anger, and I did not feel that I did something wrong at that time. I really want to marry this girl, bearing in mind that she is a virgin and for the second time I want to propose to her and complete the marriage if she agrees. I hope Your Eminence will tell me if she is unlawful for me because of what I have said, or if I should make Kaffarah (expiation). What should I do if I married her? I am waiting for your Fatwa (legal opinion issued by a qualified Muslim scholar) to determine what I should do in this regard.
