Online Nikkah
I met someone(female) online who was very inspired by Islam. She is a national of different country, and when I met her she had gone abroad to another Western country where she is pursuing her studies. Its been quite alot of time since we met almost half an year and now I feel what we are doing is haram and someday stuff might get out of hands and we might commit greater sin, So my question is:
1) As she accepted Islam infront of me online while one of her muslim friend was present on call and I recited the shahadah with her as the mosque near her has a diff school of thought and dont welcome Asians and are not friendly. She prays and watches islamic videos for knowledge. Is her conversion authentic or does she need to contact some imam or scholar for this?2) Can I do Nikkah with her online? and due to external circumstances none of us can tell either of our social circle or relatives about this. I dont want that my love should be the reason for Allahs saddnes and he says I will open doors for you if you take one step towards me.
3)As I said none of our family/relatives can know, do we still need guardians? and do we need imam for nikkah>?
4) Do we need to have paper work for this? as we plan on doing a public nikkah laterwards in our relatives and guardians presence.

To accept Islam is a matter of faith; it needs no formal acceptance from any authority. If she wants to declare it, she can; if she wants to keep it to herself, it is her choice.
Marriage needs to be publicly declared so that a man and woman are now husband and wife. Documentation serves the same purpose. If being a Muslim makes a difference in documentation, then do it accordingly. Informing your relatives is your problem, for which you need to make a sensible and serious decision. For Asian people, extended family matters a lot, so make your decision accordingly.
Hiding marriage from family causes many problems. You may take some more time to make a more mature decision.

for me the extended family do not matter in this case/aspect. At the same time what I have with the lady I want to marry is not halal. and for a fact I know I cannot meet her within a year atleast. Till then it would be haram what we will have and I want to know what are the minimum requirements for a Nikkah. asin the wali, gawah and imam if necessary?
