Ibrahim Saleh Al-Husseini: Yes, it is permissible; it was in the old time we differentiate between near and far. But now with the Internet, one can get married on the phone and he can get married by announcing it by phone.

Ibrahim Saleh Al-Husseini: Yes, by announcing on the phone, and this is a long process that needs to be requested, agreed and accepted, and everything should be done.

 This is permissible by just announcing that one married another and the witnesses are so and so. All of these are permissible and now it is permissible to marry in ``Borno'' here and the wife, for example in China, or the dowry is in China, if it could be transferred to her as soon as possible. These all are possible, because, one can contact the registered bank and order them to transfer dowry to wife’s location. Then it is just a matter of seconds or one or more minutes.
