Sahih definition
Sahih which means ‘valid ’can either be ‘Batil’ which means ‘void’ or ‘Fasid’ which means ‘irregular’ but this is subjected to changes as per the different schools under the Muslim Law.10 For Nikah to be Sahih under the Muslim law, three conditions are to be satisfied. First being the ‘propsal and acceptance’ the second being, ‘competent parties’ and the third being ‘absence of legal disability’11. The contract of marriage under Muslim law is constituted by offer made by a party known as ‘ijab’ and acceptance by other party known as ‘qabool.’ The entire process of ‘ijab-o-qabool’ has to be essentially made in a single meeting either in oral or in writing with free will and consent of the parties.12 The capacity to enter into a valid marriage is determined by competencies of the parties and one of them being the “Age of Marriage”. Muslim Laws conveys that, a person who has attained the age of puberty may enter into the contract of marriage.13 The life of a Muslim man and woman is divided into three stages. ‘The very first stage, ‘saghir’ is when the Muslim boy or girl is seven years of age or below where the marriage is void ab inito. ‘Sariri’ is the second stage which consider the age of seven to fifteen and marriage is valid only if done by the guardian and not that child’s free consent. ‘Bulugh’ is the third stage where any Muslim above age of fifteen is major and is capable of having a valid marriage on his or her own consent.’14
