Mehar - The Sweet Dowry

-
Image
Assalamoalaikum Warahmatullahi wabarakatahu 'Mehar' (also pronounced as dainMehar) which means dowry in the Islamic tradition is an  important Right of a wife in Islam,which becomes the responsibility of the husband to pay, soon after the Marriage, even if it is not mentioned in writing ,  It is an essential aspect, and it is assumed that there is an intention on the part of the bridegroom to pay Mehar and intention on the part of the bride to receive it.  Cool Right? A Marriage becomes annulled if the couple foregoes it, whatsoever it should be paid by the bridegroom and demanded by the bride!!!! In Islam, Marriage is a contract and Mehar is the name of that 'Right' which a wife gets from her husband. Qur'an says:  "Pay off the dowry of women willingly"(Verse No.4, Surah al Nisa)   Allah has ordained that you should pay Mehar toy our wives in lieu whereof you have legitimized sexual relations with them".

Halal and haram are universal terms which not only encompasses food and...

I was born in Manchester and moved to London when I was seven years old. I was raised in a moderately religious Muslim family, all of whom observed hijab. I therefore decided to observe hijab myself when I was eight years old and I continued to wear a headscarf (though not in the most modest of ways). I had just started work at a law firm and so began my “westernised” lifestyle; “drinks after work”, “birthdays”, “Christmas parties”, “events”, you name it- I did it. I justified my participation as just doing what was necessary to integrate with my peers, and because I didn’t drink and I didn’t engage in what was strictly and very outwardly “haram”, day by day I found myself becoming numb to the situations I was being exposed to. Soon enough they became normal; what seemed like a big deal at first, became normal and what became normal, became instilled in my life. For about a year, I got worse and worse, until I eventually reached what I thought to be a “balance”. I call ...
