About this deal

The heart of Islam is found in the Oneness of God. Part of this belief is knowing fully well that although one may not physically see God with their eyes, God can be “seen” with the heart and God always sees us. Thus, the faith of a Muslim is encompasses beliefs, devotional acts, and spiritual beauty.

The marriage contract documents are recorded with the masjid and registered with local government, thus fulfilling the civil obligations of the marriage. Without this, the marriage would not be recognised under the law of the country you reside and the legal rights of the spouse, such as inheritance, couples and later their children rights would not be valid.The hadith (pl., ahadith) are formal narrations or reports of the doings and sayings of the Prophet Muhammad based on the memory of his closest family and companions. Hadith are the second most important source of religious guidance for Muslims and often studied alongside the Qur’an. the hadith include what the Prophet Muhammad did, what he said, and what he gave tacit approval to by watching his Companions do or say something without correcting it. The Prophet was not only a messenger conveying God’s message, but also a model to be followed in spiritual and ethical life from the manners of praying, eating and talking to the ethics of business, marriage and war. The Prophet is not considered divine or worthy of worship in anyway. It is his example that is exemplary for Muslims who seek to apply the Qur’an. He is referred to as “the walking Qur’an.” It is traditional, but not a religious requirement for the bride to hold a mendhi ceremony, usually at home, shortly before the wedding. The groom’s family provides the henna, which is applied to the bride’s hands and feet. Following the application of mendhi, the bride does not leave the house until the nikah. Her wedding clothes are also provided by the groom’s family. Hadith conveyed just by one person (such as an intimate companion or one of the wives of the Prophet) may still be considered authentic depending on content and context of the hadith. Yaa ayyahu’lladheena aamanu-ttaqu’Llaaha wa qooloo qawlan sadeedan (O you who believe! Keep your duty to Allaah and fear Him, and speak (always) the truth).’ A man, the bridegroom doesn’t need to have a wali at the time of the wedding contract, rather the man is the one who goes into the wedding contract by himself. It is the lady who needs a wali, since the Prophet Muhammad Peace Be Upon said, based on the hadeeth narrated by ‘Aa’ishah: “Any woman who gets married without a wali, her marriage is invalid, invalid, invalid.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1102; classed as hasan by Abu Dawood, 2083; Ibn Maajah, 1879.

Bumiller, Elisabeth. May You Be the Mother of a Hundred Sons: A Journey Among the Women of India. New Delhi: Penguin Books India, 1990. Carroll, Lucy. Mutual rights of inheritance between husband and wife are established. That is to say, after the death of the husband, the wife is entitled to inherit the husband’s properties and after the wife’s death, husband may also inherit her properties. Muslims will often read hadith on a regular basis as a devotional practice to be connected to the Prophet and his traditions. Hadith serve as great reminders of how to live Islam both internally as well externally. The most essential principle in Islam is the purely monotheistic belief in one God. God is the Creator of everything in the universe and is unique from His creation. Muslims are encouraged to develop a direct and personal relationship with God without any intermediaries. Muslims often refer to God as Allah, which simply means “God” in the Arabic language. Arabic-speaking Jews and Christians also refer to God as Allah. (Read more: Who is Allah?)

A word of advice, make sure you refrain from doing secret Nikkah or without the blessings of the parents or close relatives and guardians. Fixing the Date of Nikah Fasting ( Sawm):Muslims fast during the month of Ramadan, the ninth month of the Muslim lunar calendar, by refraining from eating, drinking, and sexual interaction from dawn to sunset. It is an act of self-restraint and spiritual cleansing that increases one’s empathy for the less fortunate and enables one to consciously control bad habits such as foul language, idle talk, and anger. Fasting also helps people develop strong willpower as they overcome the essential desires of their body and the damaging acts of their tongue. Early Meccan verses focus on the Oneness of God, patience as a response to hardship, the importance of doing good works, condemnation of evil practices, such as female infanticide, in society, and an emphasis on the afterlife as the eternal life with vivid descriptions of heaven and hell.
