Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In some Islamic countries, the bride's guardians (awliya) write a list of the house furniture before the wedding ceremony is held, stating that it is the right of the wife and her property in the event of divorce, and that the ceremony will not be held until the husband signs this list. Is this action permissible from the standpoint of the Shari'ah?
Answer:
The wife is entitled only to the mahr (bridal gift); she is not entitled to the ceremony. It is only the mahr that was made obligatory for her that she receives.
