How to facilitate marriage matters

Reducing the dowry

When choosing a good husband for his daughter, the father must not exaggerate in his demand for the dowry, and he must facilitate the procedures and conditions of marriage, so that he in turn helps protect the young men and women of society from deviation, as this was mentioned in the hadith of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace: (If there comes to you someone whose religion and character you are satisfied with, then marry him. If you do not do so, there will be strife and corruption on earth.)The Islamic religion did not stipulate in marriage anything other than the ability to spend so that the new family could live with pride and dignity and contentment, without stipulating wealth and extreme wealth, as the Messenger, peace and blessings be upon him, said in another hadith: (O young people, whoever of you is able to do so, let him get married, and whoever is not able to do so, let him fast, for it is a reward for him.)،

Religion has obligated the man to provide the dowry to the woman in appreciation and to preserve her dignity, so it should not become an obstacle to completing the relationship. Because a large dowry is incompatible with achieving the goal of marriage, which is the chastity of both parties and the preservation of the purity of society. The Messenger also mentioned that reducing the value of the dowry is a reason for blessing, as he said: (The most blessed are the women who have the easiest friendships)The pure Sunnah called for facilitating marriage matters in every possible way.
