May consider the book idea as my Mum was saying it’s nice to have the resource to consult rather than asking strangers questions which may make a new bride go a bit red in the face.

I like the clutch idea b/c it’s something she can use for a long time and it’s not something MIL/BIL etc. can pick on. As for the book…it’s not a bad idea to include 1 or 2 books on a Islamic rights of a wife etc.

But to be honest…I feel very sad for this girl. Even if she’s fully aware of her rights…given her young age…I’m not sure if she can or will do anything to stand up for herself. If you, at the age of 30 living in UK, haven’t been able to do anything to change your situation…I’m not sure if a 15 year old (17 at the time of marriage) living in Pakistan will have much luck. :hinna:
