@Reha

I think the concept of Jahaiz is evil - full stop.

If my parents gave me or my husband or both a wedding gift, I can appreciate that.

If my parents are under pressure to give certain items or a certain amount of cash because of the in-laws…I won’t let that happen.

Its the “layn dayn” in our culture that gets out of hand at times.

It treats the marriage like a business transaction… Or like old school bartering.
