ANSWER:

You must not have any communication with her whatsoever as she is still nonmahram to you. 

A real man doesn’t need the approval of his parents when getting married to a practicing woman if he is financially independent. 

As long as you are going to provide her with a separate accommodation, you don’t need your parents consent but it is highly recommended that you deal with them diplomatically. Approach her father if you are serious about marriage.

QUESTION: My engagement got broken after a year due to family issues but we both still love each other and believe we will be good spouses. Should I keep trying for her and think of ways to fix those issues or just leave considering it’s Allah’s will?
