Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I got married and did not hold a wedding feast, so is there a sin on me for that?

Answer:
No, those who leave it are leaving a sunnah (recommended practice). Whoever does not hold a walimah (wedding feast) has left a sunnah, and there is no sin on him, but if he does it, he will have a reward. Yes, hold a walimah, even if it is with just one sheep. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This is part of announcing the marriage; this is part of announcing the marriage. Yes.
