See the paternal family line
The Wali view uses recorded paternal relationships, sex and life status to organise family priorities. A father and paternal grandfather appear in their respective groups; open the details to see how each relative connects to the selected woman.
Understand the priority numbers
Badges distinguish a recorded Wali candidate, Later priority, deceased relatives and connections that need details. Relatives in the same group share a number. Missing earlier groups do not renumber later groups, so the family order stays consistent.
Family priority and individual circumstances
The chart describes family order. Personal eligibility, consent, availability and the appointment of a wali require individual review. Jalin does not collect or assess every personal condition, and a numbered relative is not an appointed marriage guardian.
