عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «لا تُزوِّجُ المرأةُ المرأةَ، ولا تُزوج المرأةُ نفسَها، فإنَّ الزَّانية هي التي تُزوجُ نفسَها».
[صحيح، دون الجملة الأخيرة (فإن الزانية...)] - [رواه ابن ماجه]
المزيــد ...

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "c2">“No woman should perform the marriage of another woman, and no woman should perform her own marriage. It is an adulteress who performs her own marriage.”
Sahih/Authentic. - [Ibn Maajah]

Explanation

This Hadīth proves that a woman does not have the authority to perform her own marriage, let alone someone else's marriage. Any marriage performed by a woman is void. As for the sentence: "It is an adulteress who performs her own marriage", these are Abu Hurayrah’s words. By this he meant that only adulteresses perform their own marriages, so a chaste woman must not marry without a guardian.
