Re: Haq Meher & Nikkah Nama
Long time ago, in combined indo pak, shara;ee mehar was 32 rs and 50 paisa. That was the price of just under 7.5 tola of gold. The reasoning was so if grils gets it, she does not have to pay zakat on it..
that was just to save her from extra burden ..
(or maybe the reasoning was the other way around)
1200 dollars might be that amount now
but in reality, there is no Shara'i meher
ask Imam sahab the history and logic of Shara'i meher
