Hi, I hope someone can help please and translate this sentence and what the tradition is?

allahın emri peygamberim kavli ile kızınızı oğlumuza istiyoruz

My boyfriend said he and his parents would come to see my parents and would they accept? Is this an important tradition? Because I am Australian it is very far for them to come. I tried to translate it but I didn't understand it and he had trouble explaining it to me.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for that and for replying so quickly. That is nothing like the translation I got when I used google translate!!!

Can you also tell me please if it is important that his parents visit my parents for this to happen?

Thanks again.
