The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. My friend’s sister married for a sum of twenty-five thousand riyals, and my sister married for twenty-six thousand riyals. Is this considered shighar?
The Shaykh:
As long as the contracts have been completed, this is for the judge to look into. You should go back to the court so they can look into it. Yes.
The presenter:
And likewise, he says: Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
If the contracts had not been completed, we would say: No, this is not permissible; this is shighar. But since the contracts have been completed, go back to the judge, because there is scholarly disagreement on this matter regarding the mahr. Yes.
