Jahez

Re: Jahez

@coffeegirl

I always thought that Islamically this was wrong and that there is no such thing as Jahez in Islam. This totally goes against the lesson **I have been taught at school of Jahez being wrong, being an Indian tradition **etc.

@Decent_6Chora

how about the fact that there was no wedding, mehndi, mayoon, chauhti, dasween etc functions for Fatima (RA) and there was only valima for close family from Ali (RA)? Ask you father if he is ok with practicing that too?

Yea but the argument could be made the other way too. If OP is so against jahez b/c its Islamically wrong and a Indian tradition…is she also against having a mehndi, mayoon, various rasams and most things that desi weddings include, but that really was never a part of Islam and are actually Indian traditions?
