NomiCA im starting to think you have somthing against people who can afford to spend on their weddings…are you jealous or somthing because a second thread on the same topic is a little weird…

@Sohni649

this topic is unfair and unjust to those who just happen to have money, who probably pay their zakat (at the end of the day each person will be questioned) and who just happen to come from a good family…

@somegroovychick

agreed! the assumption that spending money on a wedding/the people who spend money on their weddings = irresponsible, unnecessary, excessive, bad, etc. is ridiculous and very judge-y.

hmm…let me decode it..(correct me if i am wrong)..you think because i opened two threads on this topic…that somehow i am very poor and could not have a fancy wedding and i am here criticizing ‘spending’ because i am insecure, jealous and resentful of the ‘rich’ people who have such weddings…

I appreciate your responses which stem from your inability to discuss the topic without making personal remarks about the poster who presents a different viewpoint than yours… and honestly it does not surprise me at all

P.S…Good luck with your ‘Crores’ and ‘2 Lakh dresses’…i hope it keeps you motivated

But how does discussing an issue which effects society equate to judging/having problem who happen to have a lot of money??

Do you think i care how much some people spend…whether they shoot themselves on their foot…or do anything for that matter?
No i don’t give a damn about it…and in case anyone thinks that…i refer to my original post (which was probably blurred out and not visible to some people due to some issues they themselves have)..

@NomiCA

Would the society be better off with simple weddings or these?

and i do admit…it was a mistake i did by posting it in weddings forum…which hurt some fragile personalities.

^I think there may be some misunderstanding here. I don’t think NomiCA is necessarily has anything against “people who can afford to spend on their weddings.” And how do you guys know that NomiCA isn’t loaded?

The fact remains that the hadith on this topic encourages us to stay level-headed during wedding planning. Terms like “lavish” or “frugal” are relative. Someone from a lower-income home may get caught up in wedding fever, and spend beyond their means, but they may still spend less than a wealthy family who cuts back on wedding expenses. However, the intentions of the wealthy family would probably be more respectable.

Thank god some people do have a clear mind.
