DO YOU KNOW YOU CAN MARRY IN RAMADHAN?

-

In Islam, there is nothing that prohibits performing marriages at any time of the year.

The only restrictions pertain to consummating marriages during certain times. For instance, it is not allowed to consummate a marriage while fasting, or while one is in a state of consecration or ihram for performing Hajj or `Umrah but  as far as solemnizing marriage is concerned, there is no restriction to conclude it at any time even if this would be on the day of fasting as long as the Walimah and consummation of the marriage take place at night.

It is absolutely fine to do so, as long as you plan to do both the Walimah and consummation of marriage after iftar(breaking of the fast) and not earlier during the day.

Allah says in the Qur’an, (It is made lawful for you to approach your wives (in conjugal relations) on the night of fast. They are garments (of protection) for you and you are garments of (of protection for them))(Al-Baqarah 2: 187).

Therefore, there is nothing objectionable from an Islamic point of view if thenikah is done on the day of fast during Ramadan and the walimahand the consummation take place at night.

May Allah bless us with spouses that are good for us and may we also be the perfect ones for our spouses.

May He grant our marriage wishes even in  Ramadan. Amiin.

The Modern Muslim woman and fashion

Now more than ever, the Modern  Muslim women doesn’t have to struggle to fit into the fashion world and trends.   Whatever the occasion is, the Muslima can still look trendy, edgier and let me use a more favourable term, sexier in her abaya and veil. Bear  in mind, fashion doesn’t know boundaries, it is simply how you put the pieces together to achieve a certain look but for a Muslim woman, be careful not to go against what the Holy Quran states about our way of dressing modestly.  For a modern Muslim woman like myself, much as i want to join the fashion trend, I am always careful not to go against the norm. Allow me  to take you into my look book for the EMY’s AWARDS 2018 at Kempinski hotel last weekend.  I made that fashion statement in my beautiful abaya and veil without any stress or time wasting. Most importantly in ways that made me feel just good and beautiful.  I picked a simple bottom patterned black abaya with belt  from my wardrobe. I settled on bla

Why You Shouldn’t Believe Everything Is Black And White On Social Media

A lady here saw me at the hospital and was too visibly shocked  I was holding a new baby. Out of unharmed curiosity she went like “Eh Diamonds so you were pregnant and didn’t tell us.” …your followers.” I smiled and said oh I didn’t tell you people eh? I am sorry. Forgive me. But truthfully, about 90% of the people who know me in real life, didn’t even see me pregnant. When I myself decided to inform them, a lot of them didn’t believe me till they visited to see for themselves. Usually Extroverts are sometimes very Introvert too. I am a mixture of both.  Then she kept wowing and I asked why? She said, “I am shocked because the way you are on social media this is a surprise. So you were pregnant and have even delivered? People will be shocked.”  My words to her: Oh after a month of delivery I myself announced it here so people will be informed. It was only in line I did that so those who felt I wasn’t honouring their invitations to events and interviews for sometime will take note.  But
