Re: haq meher
TLK, Niksik and shay,
i recently had my nikah i enquired about this. the answer from the elders in my family who know fiqh in detail from a hanafi pov was thus.
mehr is a gift the husband is instructed to give and cannot (should not) be refused by the wife. there is one mehr amount given on the pakistani nikkah nama. the next question in the list is what amount was paid immediately (if any, it can all be deferred) and what amount is deferred (so in my case it was all deferred). this is not deferred until/in the case of divorce but to a time decided by the wife which she should let the husband know after the nikah e.g. when he can afford it/in 2 years time/on his first wages...... but this is not mentoined on the nikah nama unless of course the wife wants a record of it.
