Question

I like a girl and want to marry her but my father doesn't want ... Once my elder sister and her husband went to her home for rishta and they agreed but when the girl's father told to us that our father must also come for rishta with relatives, my father did not agree to go to her home. Please give me a wazifa so that my father will agree.

Answer

The better thing is to listen to you father.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
