Need advice on getting married without girl's parent's consent


20-Jan-2023 (In Family Law)
Respected Sir/Mam I (27 Year)want to get married with my girlfriend(23 Year), Both of us are Muslim, but her parents are against. I have tried to convince her family but they denied. My family is ready to accept her. We have no other option left, that's why we have decided to go ahead and get married, we know each other since last 4 year. I have some questions, Please guide me. 1)What is legal acceptability of Nikah or we should go for court marriage? The downside of court marriage is that it require around 30 days duration. 2)Would the nikah be registered later without any trouble? 3)How to overcome false kidnapping case against me and my family. My father is a government employee. 4)Is it better to inform police station/SP Office near her home and what about filing the petition in High Court? 5)How can state women commission help us? and what about Section 506 of IPC. Thanks for reading my question and Please provide me step by step process, to face this situation in Legal Manner.

For Muslim marriage there are some essential points to know for its validity -first, both parties bride and bridegroom should give their consent
Second,there should be atleast two witnesses who would personally enquire them from bride as to whether she is willing to marry or not
In Muslim law, marriage is a contract

(1) Nikah is valid in the eyes of law if performed strictly according to the personal law applicable, i.e. Sunni or Shia, but Nikahnama should also be duly executed. No need for Court Marriage.

(2) Yes, Nikah can be registered later on producing Nikahnama. But Nikahnama is itself the best and strongest proof of the marriage performed.

(3) You can overcome false kidnapping case if your wife gives statement against the case.

(4) What kind of petition you are talking about? Informing police is optional, may be like an extra precaution. There is no need to file any kind of petition in this regard before the High Court.

(5) No need to involve Women Commission in this matter, they can do nothing. Complaint under Section 506 IPC is just an extra precaution.
