Weddings

Congratulations

Congratulations on your forthcoming wedding and are pleased that you seek an Islamic marriage (Nikah) here at Palmers Green Mosque.

In amongst the inevitable stress of organising your wedding, we can offer a service which helps to alleviate some of that stress.

Firstly this is a day of celebration. This first of all involves having your friends and family around you to participate in this joyous occasion. Most importantly though this is an opportunity to give thanks to Allah for the gift of Love he has put in everyone’s hearts.

The only requirement for Muslim weddings is the signing of a marriage contract which includes a ‘Mahr’. The mahr is a gift given to the bride. Marriage traditions differ depending on culture, Islamic sect, and observance of gender separation rules.

At Palmers Green Mosque, we understand that marriages are continuously a work in progress. It doesn’t start and stop on that one day. This understanding is what also guides us at Palmers Green Mosque in always being ready to listen to your anxieties and problems, and to share in your happiness. In short, we shall help you to realise the Islamic ideal of life-long marriage.

The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “O young men, whoever among you can afford to get married, let him do so, and whoever cannot afford it, let him fast, for that will be a shield for him.”

Al-Bukhaari, 4778; Muslim, 1400
