6. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Yahya from ibn Muskan from al-Hassan ibn Ziyad who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah , about the case of a woman if she can propose for marriage. He (the Imam) said,

‘She has more control over her affairs; she can appoint whomever she likes to act as her guardian if it is her second marriage.’”
