Re: how important is jahez?
***My parents gave my sisters everything imaginable for their jahaiz......complete household furniture including bedroom set , sofa set , dining set , carpets , curtains , cutlery , dinner sets ,tea sets ,bedlinens quilts , kitchenware not only cutlery ,pots ,pans but even food processors etc. In all the hustle bustle of a marriage they forgot to give a centre table .........My sister tells me she still gets reminded about that from her in-laws even after she has had 3 children............
Bottom line is whatever you give , its never gonna be enough !
.........People who will accept jahaiz will continue to expect it and always look for the one thing you forgot to give......Its a sick desi mentality and as long as the guy's side expects it the girl's side has no choice but to give or let their daughter be the target of such taunts.........
