Iris Posted July 16, 2008 LOL @ Rick Astley. You've gone and put the song in my head, nooo Mahr is a big deal for Somali's, someone I know had a relative getting married recently. The whole family chimed in, it seemed to be the event of the year..demanding this and that, they mentioned dahab, all expenses paid trip to Dubai to buy said dahab, ten thousand pounds and belayo kale. I think the man is a university student, no idea how that turned out. I'm going to ask for a private Coldplay concert held in my honour. I need to forget Rick Astley's song Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The wedding gift usually given by the groom and his family, it's cultural and not an Islamic requirement. The mahar is the amount of money stated by the bride and is written in the contract, without it the contract is void. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

- Femme - Posted July 20, 2008 The student loan thing is a brillant idea (one that I had for a while ). What better way to start a marriage than debt & headache free...sounds lovely. *sigh* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
