Question:
This man asks: What is the ruling on attending a wedding feast if it contains religious prohibitions, or poetic recitations, or other such things?
Answer:
The default ruling is that it is obligatory to accept the invitation to attend a wedding feast. The default is obligation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sunan Ibn Majah 1435Hasan (Darussalam) He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan ad-Darimi 8:45 and one who wants to attend it is prevented from doing so, or as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said. Then he said: Sunan Abi Dawud 3741Da'if (Al-Albani) But if you know that this gathering contains wrongdoings and you are unable to remove them, then it is not permissible for you to attend, so that you do not endorse the wrongdoing. It is not permissible for you to attend. This is a barrier that prevents accepting the invitation of the one who invited you. Yes.
