Bringing Gifts When Attending Wedding Feasts

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: It is our custom in our town, when responding to an invitation to a wedding feast, to bring a gift and give it to the wife or the husband. Is what we do correct according to the Shari'ah?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. This fosters love among people. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Give gifts to one another, and you will love one another." A gift removes resentment. So this is good.
