Re: Dry fruits distribution after Nikah??

@sweetequation

but why, i mean how this all started. Its kind of silly thing if you think about it, sweets (methaie) i understand but dry fruits and they are kind of must to distribute right after nikah i really dont get the concept. In one of my sister marriage, which was all planned by me, i dint included this and i was told by my relatives that i should make quick arrangements for that, i asked them to give sweet but they said “nahi patal yeh nikah k choharry hain” they should be dry fruit. since then it stayed in my mind, why why why and is this tradition followed in only India and Pakistan ???

as i said, traditionally, it’s looted after nikaah by dulha’s friends and young kids so miThaaii will not be a good idea because a lot will end up smooshed and will fall on to the ground…it’s a tradional thing…it has no religious value whatsoever…the only thing i can think of is that Khajoor has a special place in any Muslim Culture…since it’s sticky so it’s distribution will be difficult so they chose chhohaaraa instead…khajoor/chhohaaraa is a sunnat!
