: Perhaps he is unmarriageable due to childhood, impotence, following another religion, etc. Actually, I fight this term wherever I face it. Sorry for this. Best Regards!

Those in state of Ihraam
In a footnote, Ihraam is to be explained that any one going for pilgrimage or umrah should first undertake some steps to be in state of Ihraam so as to be able to perform the hajj and umrah.

Mohamed Gaafar
: state of Ihramm is totally different you can be married with your wife and in state of Ihraam/ on a second thought yes husband is ok but he is a male guardian still more general

Saleh Dardeer
: It should be taken into consideration that there are male guardians who are permitted to marry the woman. Your suggestion still needs further modifiers! Best Wishes!

unmarriageable kin
here we should use this expression for the very precise translation and i think when we say unmarriageable person still there is something missing cause we did not make clear which kind of person and what is his relative category .
