Muslim marriage is a moral binding contract between Muslim man and women or we can define it more preciously as it is a sacred institution of faith. When we used to do Quran Recitation daily then we come to know that Muslim marriages are performed according to the rules and regulations of Islamic sharia. In Islamic marriages mostly parents have the duty to make the final decision.
The marriage proposal is made by both sides but usually it comes from the girl’s parents. Once both parties agree on that decision then the engagement ceremony is made which further comes toward marriage. The consent of bride and groom is very much important in Islamic marriage. For this purpose a priest used to ask both parties and both bride and groom sing the marriage proposal. There is also the need of witness so 3 witnesses are required from both sides. After signing the marriage contract, sweets and dates distribution stats with grand feast.
In Muslim marriages, the Dowry or (Mahr) is offered by groom to bride at the time of marriage or may be after some days. It is just for the safe guard of women for certain incidents. It is the main duty of husband to take care of her spouse and support her in every good act. The major difference between Muslim marriage and non-Muslim marriage is the practice of Polygamy in which Muslim men are allowed to marry up to 4 women.
The purpose of this polygamy is not to create problems of conflict but the purpose of it should be to protect and support women who are widow or poor. Muslim women are not allowed to marry more than one man at time. Islam permits to marry a Jewish or Christian women but when she accept Islam.
Marriages are the building blocks of Islamic societies and Islam mentioned all the duties and rules regulation of husband and wife that we may come to know through Quran Recitation. Muslim marriages ultimately welcome the healthy growth of families that further preach about Islam.
