If a relative of yours asks you to sign off a document merely out of fear that you could potentially cause legal problems for him/her in the future.
a) Would you sign off the document thinking his/her concern is legitimate
b) Would you get pissed off cuz you see lack of trust.
c) None of the above
nai i wudnt mind waghera, id jus sign it
When it comes to business matters, keep everything legit and don't trust anybody based on the fact they are family.
Irem, wouldn’t you question the sincerity/love of your relative? Obviously he/she is questioning yours
Mehnaz, how are relatives different from friends when it comes to business matters?

Fayz
nai i wuldnt perceive what they r doing as questioning my sincerity/love
[wont that be my fault for doing shak on their niyat?]
so i wudnt question their sincerity/love either
err ok :-)
Let me ask you this..would you sign a prenuptial agreement?
Fayz what have you done this time?
I choose (a) by the way.:o
prenuptial agreement?? whats that?? 
^ hai meriay poliay mujay...google it. I'm off for a meeting...looking forward to read your reply in an hour :-)
MQ, it's just a general inquiry..people's perspectives...general psychology....nothing personal.
Business: I would definitely sign.
Marriage: Again I would sign if requested to do so.
Personally I think a pre-nup is a great idea and in our male dominanted society it gives women an edge in legal issues over land and the like as a great deal of dowry is handed over which the male automatically gets ownership of when he shouldnt.
what?!?!?! EWW xCuse me stop calling me polio mujay and all that 
anyways i cant be bothered to google it 
i’ll ask my dad i guess, if he says yes i’ll sign it 
here you go irem:
FROM GOOGLE :D (define: prenuptial agreement)
A legal agreement arranged before marriage stating who owns property acquired before marriage and during marriage and how property will be divided in the event of divorce. ERISA benefits are not affected by prenuptial agreements.
wealthcare.org/glossary.htm
A written contract entered into by a couple who intends to marry but want to establish, before the marriage, their rights in the event of death or divorce during marriage. Such a document generally limits a spouse’s rights to property, support, or inheritance upon divorce.
www.divorcechoice.com/glossary_full.asp
An agreement a couple signs before marrying, in which they set up the terms of property distribution in case they divorce.

Ansoon thanks 
lekin itni lambi explanation 
ok lemi read :halo:
ok parh lya
hmm
i wudnt care abt this prenup thing but islamically in the nikah contract u have to specify certain things like dower [amount husband gives to wife i think] and haq mehr [amount husband has to give to wife incase he divorces her] i think
the female can excuse the dower if she wants to but it has to be part of the nikah contract
these rules r mentioned in i think Surah an-Nisa, 4th surah of Quran Paak, in detail..
ur welcome :)
I'd sign both.

If they ask this, I would treat it as I would any document I sign. Read thoroughly, question what I am unsure of, and not sign if I don't agree. If there is nothing in it that I would disagree with or that will harm me, I would sign.
But I would also remember who it is that thinks that I have no character or credibility and deal with them accordingly. Usually the people who cannot trust are not worthy of it themselves.....
yeah i'd sign it - its really their problem that they don't trust you. If you're secure with yourself, why should you care. Just be sure they're not up to some mischief - read the document carefully and if its something serious, dont be afraid to get your lawyers involved. If they want to start something, then they had better not get offended by the consequences.

Ahh, missed this. No. Again it has to do with trust. If you cannot trust who you are marrying, you shouldn't marry.
But this is my personal viewpoint, others may disagree. It has worked for two marriages though (1st husband passed, current still living).
However, if there are children involved (like a 2nd marriage, etc) it is a good idea to have someone else you trust appointed as the administrator of the children's money. I appointed my mother along with my 2nd husband. I trust that they both have the children's best interest at heart and will balance each other's decisions. They fact that they get along so well also helps.
I also think that if there are kids involved, a pre-nup may be a good idea.
id provide anyone and everyone with my autograph :)
So what I gather from the replies is that there is room for signing contracts without worrying that it will affect the relationship between relatives. Quite a western mindset but nothing wrong with it.
I will check out Surah Nisa’s translation.
p.s. Miss Mohabbat, can I get yours on my collar.
