The ruling on cutting the wedding cake for the bride

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe and guide your steps. Is the bride’s obedience to the cutting of the cake on the day of the wedding considered a religious innovation (bid'ah)?

Answer:
No, this is among the permissible customs, unless they believe that cutting it for her causes harmony between the spouses, or causes blessing. In that case, it is not permissible; this belief is defective.
