Islam started with Arabs? I thought only Orientalists propagated that myth.

Many people born in Muslim countries to Muslim parent and also having names like Muslims but what are they we can judge easily by their deeds.

May I ask as to why you feel the need to answer a year old posts yet ignore my brand new one?

Maybe he hasn't seen it yet?

I don't think it's because he doesn't like you

As I understand, Misyar is a slang term used by such people. There is not such name in Sahria Terminology. A husband and wife may set any conditions for their marriage within the basic framework provided in Islam.

Allah Knows Best

Interesting, I had never heard of this before.

I don't understand why people made such a big deal of it.

Your point of views is appreciable. May Allah grants us more understanding of such matters.

Can any one tell what is in someone's heart. If some person have some hidden agenda then what can be doen.

I had a friend who entered a 'Misyaar' marriage contract. The woman he married didn't take a maher, lived with her parents and was financially independent of him. Once he finished his education and got an income, he began to fulfill his duties just like any other marriage contract.

Had 'Misyaar' not been allowed (ie. the woman or man not allowed to waive certain rights bound by a marriage contract) then my friend would not have been able to marry and maybe this could have led him in the wrong direction.

Alhamdulilah there is an accommodation for people who would like to get married but do not have the financial means at the moment.

But didn't one of the Nabi SAWS's wives (Umm Salma, I think), waive her right to time spent with him in favour of Aishah RA because she was old? And didn't all the wives agree to give up their turns when the Nabi SAWS was in his last sickness? I think that if the wife agrees to give up her right of time or support, then the husband is not obligated.

I believe it is the true spirit of Nikkah. Which is being achieved through Nikkah Al Misyar.

It is given in Quran ;

[ An'Noor: Ayat32 (24:32)::Marry those among you who are single, or the virtuous ones among yourselves, male or female: if they are in poverty, Allah will give them means out of His grace: for Allah encompasseth all, and He knoweth all things.]






Mean, Nikkah has least concerns with one person's financial well being. If s/he is poor the Allah will make them rich.

The case you presented here is exemplary for other Muslims and [non-Muslims too] who want to lead a life free of sins and immoralities.

Here it is necessary to elaborate that in present day life, it is much easier to have premarital or extramarital relations than having a bonafide wife. People are even resorting to CSW. But not marrying properly just because of the fear of the unknown or customs / society's restrictions.

Only Allah Knows best.

It is based on mutual understanding...

In Misyar, it is a bit complex to understand and explain.

In Islamic society a man is responsible for his family in all respects i.e. financial, social etc.

But it never means that a man must be richer [or elder] then his wife.

Due to a number of reasons a man can marry a woman richer then him,,,, or in other words a rich woman may marry with a man who has less financial fortune then herself.

Here one more thing need to be understood... a man can not refuse to give a gift [here in Pakistan it is commonly known as Mahar or Mehar] to his wife to be at the time of marriage [Nikkah] but it can be adjusted to his specific situation.

For example it is common to give jewelery of gold [of certain value] to wife at the time of marriage. But a man may give something else which he can afford to give. it can be anything from a flower, a lesson of Quran or a dress etc.
