First Of All

The nikah is the traditional Islamic marriage ceremony. The nikah has 3 main components: a willing couple, witnesses, and a mahr, or gift that the groom gives to the bride. Once you have these things in order and find an imam to perform the ceremony, you will be well on your way to having a successful nikah.

Agree to get married. The cornerstone of a nikah is a mutual agreement between two people to get married. Prospective spouses should fully discuss getting married before making any arrangements. If you want to be traditional, you may also have a formal proposal of marriage and consult your parents to make sure they approve

• Some mosques and imams may not perform nikah without the presence of parents or guardians, so parental approval may be especially important if you want to perform nikah in a more conservative mosque
