Jahez, Mehr Aur Mehngi Shaadi Ka Sahi Tariqa Kya Hai? | Allama Ahmed Naqshbandi

What should you do when a Jahez (dahej) list arrives? Allama Ahmed Naqshbandi Sahab from Hyderabad answers directly, and explains what Islam asks of Muslim families when it comes to mehr, the walima, and wedding spending. In this episode of The Growth Mindset Podcast, he addresses a problem many Muslim families face: a Nikah that takes about 10 minutes, wrapped in days of celebration, rented halls and expensive rituals. He shares why Nikah is a Sunnah and an act of worship, and why he says marriage has been turned into a trade and a show. He also covers the mehr, which he describes as the wife's right and a central part of the Nikah, and the role of effort and trust in Allah when a family is waiting for a marriage to happen. He closes with a practical answer to the question every bride's family dreads: what do you say when the groom's side hands you a list?
