Nikkah is MARRIAGE

Re: Nikkah is MARRIAGE

Do you see how slightly ridiculous the bit in bold becomes. Even if you’ve not moved in with husband permanently, the marriage can still be consummate. And then the opposite, you could be living together and not consummate.

So there is no point to the rasm given that nikkah as you say, makes consummation fully permissible. The rest is not really anyone else’s bsuiness.
