You can even go camping or glamping more appropriately cuz you want it bit fancy, but you save on flight and hotel cost. Its the time spent together that matters more than the flight & hotel. Not everything in life has to be OTT fancy

it doesnt necessarily mean a pious women should ask for a really low mahr
or a blessed marriage should have a low mahr
if that was the case then all the prophets صلي الله عليه وسلام wives would have really low mahr but they didnt
i think there are different interpretations to this hadith
i recall one aalim saying in regards to this hadith and mahr
its when for example someone gives mahr and the girl asks for less than what was gonna be given

what is affordable
what is easiest
im just trying to make it clear that this does not necessarily mean cheapest
ie if a person who earns 20k a year wants to get married a women could ask for 2k mahr
now if she asks him for 10k shes making it hard exaggerating not affordable
if for example the person earns 100k and the woman asks for 10k for this man it might be affordable easy not an issue at all
do you get where im coming from
and i havent taken anything from other than quran or sunnah
these ahadith show it can be interpreted in different ways
p.s the mother of believers wived mahr was not cheap or low it was considered quite a good amount in that time

My only point of disagreement is I believe the most blessed marriage is the one with the least expenses and the simplest. Even if you disagree with me there or interpret the hadith differently you will not be able to change my opinion because I will never disagree with the Messenger of Allah alaihi salatu wa salaam and that is what he stated in an authentic hadith with multiple chains of transmitters. The hadiths mentioned above show that even knowing a portion of the quran, a shield, or an iron ring can act as a mahr, because Islam is a religion of simplicity, not extravagance. But that does not mean if a woman asks for more than that she is a wicked woman nor does it mean that if she asks for less than that she is a righteous woman. Mahr like you stated is dependent upon the income of her husband and as long as it is reasonable and not excessive, there is no sin in that. :)

Honeymoons are stupid.
I can see the use in getting to know one another, but newly-weds will not have kids and if they are living with in-laws, then the husband is really at fault here. Hence, buy a house before you marry and that is alone time taken care of.

so the cheaper option is to stay with family
and please dont say dont get married till u can afford your own place
yes its the womens right but if 2 people are ok with the idea of living with family then thats up to them as long as they stick by the sharia
its better then not being married in terms of halal and haram

Yes, if the wife agrees to live with family, but I am just saying that a lot of the marriage problems you hear of are due to in-laws. Personally, I would hate to live with family married and all.Last edited by Morose; 25-02-19, 11:15 AM.
