Re: Marrying a Pakistani man …
**It’s only personal preference if the couple themselves choose to stay apart till rukhsati, not when parents (or anyone else) force them to, **that’s more like oppression..
If couples want to live together/not together it should be** their** choice. This so-called tradition is slightly different from a lot of others in that it’s blatantly trying to turn something halal into haram.. (unlike for ex an engagement ring which in itself isn’t generally considered haram by a lot of scholars, those things are more about ‘personal preference’ than forcing ur son and dil to live apart after nikah)..
