Haqemeher is purely for woman’s financial security. Islam has a logic behind everything and if you read regarding Haqemeher, you’ll see how much sense it makes. As for moon dikhai, it is a sweet gesture, especially in arranged marriages it can serve as an ‘icebreaker’. Gifts make everyone happy. When I didn’t know about moon dikhai, I always thought that I would give my hubby a nice present on our wedding day and vice versa but then I found out that it’s a tradition I find it really sweet.

Here ya go…

I jst dont understand the concept of moon dikhai? I mean both people have seen each other on the wedding so whats so special about it?

Its like saying, that if you want to look at my face..give me some cash…

@Femme_Fatale

please don’t put such a materialistic twist on it. That is the first time they are face to face in such a setting so giving a little token of love is actually a sweet gesture.

I find the haq mahar that is supposed to be paid upfront the way you find moon dikhai Sorta strange that you would have to pay your wife before you get up close and personal, hehe. The deferred one seems better.

@Sara516

That doesnt’ maek sense, haq mehr is Islamic, moonh dikhaye is cultural. they’re both the same thing… by not putting a materialistic twist on moonh dikhaye, why shdnt the same apply for haq mehr? just b/c its cash?
