Is it prescribed to shake hands between the woman's guardian and the husband at the time of the marriage contract, and likewise to recite Surat al-Fatihah?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on shaking hands between the woman's guardian and the husband at the time of the marriage contract? And what is the ruling on reciting Surat al-Fatihah?

Answer:
Reciting al-Fatihah has no basis in the marriage contract. This is what the common people say: "If you don't recite al-Fatihah over you, it means you haven't married." This has no basis. What is it and what else is there? Shaking hands for the sake of greeting after the contract is completed is fine; shaking hands for the sake of greeting is not a problem. At the time of the contract, it is not a problem if they consider it part of the contract or a necessary consequence of the contract. However, if they consider it part of the greeting, there is no harm.
