The questioner : May Allah reward the honorableThe Shaykh : May Allah raise your rank in Paradise. What is the solution to this problem: there are many young women who wish to marry, but no young men have proposed to them because of the high cost of bridal gifts. And some preachers in the mosques have complained to the men about their daughters remaining unmarried because of the high cost of bridal gifts?
The Shaykh : I believe the solution is easy: the young man should propose, and if the father wants his daughter to marry, he should say: "Give me whatever you wish." It has reached us that some of the successful people give the suitor the bridal gift to present. This is undoubtedly good, great good, kindness to their daughters and generosity to the suitors. The solution to this problem is that Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, should guide a group of people, whether in their tribe or outside it, to announce that they will marry off their daughters for low bridal gifts. And I am confident that if they do this, many suitors will come to them. Yes.
