What is the worth of culture when cultural traditions which are wrong, override Islamic traditions?
Celebration is not the problem but the problem lies within the format.
Change the format to fit Islamic traditions, and forget culture!!
I hate the culture of Arab weddings (not every wedding, but the ones that are haraamm!)
Lately I have been seeing a lot of pictures and videos of weddings that are disturbing, because when you see a picture of a hijabi without a hijab on her wedding displayed to thousand of viewers on FaceBook, or now we have Instgram, you see everyone commenting "beautiful mashAllah" "wow!" I am just thinking where is your hijab?!! Why are there men and women dancing together?
Why are you smiling, are you not embarrassed? And why are people encouraging you and complimenting your sins?
When a sin is done publicly then remember the hadith:
"All of the sings of my followers will be forgiven except of the one who commits the sin openly to the people".This hadith makes sense (ofcourse!) think about it, once one bride sees another bride take off her hijab in a mixed wedding then it will become common and eventually a trend.
Taking off your hijab and hosting a haram wedding, then displaying it on FaceBook is definitely a popular Arab trend that has become acceptable subhanAllah.
Her life time hijab that she wore to preserve her beauty for that one man she is marrying, but then he allows her to remove the hijab to display the beauty to him and the world, why? Its culture! I think the man who allows and encourages his wife to remover her hijab and beautify herself in front of hundreds of men is an idiot!!!
Culture teaches Arab girls that its okay to remove your hijab on your henna, wedding, and whatever other party these Arabs be hosting but God forbid you go to college without your hijab, people might talk, but its funny that no one talks when she is removing her hijab on her wedding.
Its ironic that the same people (family) who forbid her and even the groom from attending any haram gatherings such as parties, or clubs actually foster this haram environment on their wedding when they invite over 300 people to join them in celebration....
It is not okay to have men and women on the same dance floor, and mind you the women are dressed in tight dresses, lots of makeup, ohh its okay its a wedding we must do this. Oh and you got a nice singer who is singing provocative songs buts its okay these are cultural songs!
One of my favorite parts is how much gold the bride receives and how much it is showed off, like there is a whole part of the wedding and even henna dedicated to this showing. Its supposed to be a sign of wealth, and richness,but I think it is embarrassing and low class as you are only showing off a characteristic that is disliked the characteristic of showing off.
Mind you the bride cannot make any of her salat on her wedding because she might ruin her make up and she cant cover her hair with a scarf then she will ruin it!!
Looking forward to seeing more weddings that are based on the best culture, the culture of the Propeht.
So far the only blessed wedding I have been to is that of my best friend Diana. She is the first bride I know whos wedding was at the ICPC masjid, she wore full hijab , the white dress fully covered, no music just the sheikh making duaa, and the best part of her wedding was when she, the bride prayed! I never see brides pray on their wedding...how can they make wudu with all that makeup looool what a bad problem! Everyone left her wedding saying how it was one of the best weddings they have ever attended, because you felt the Baraka, and the angels were probably there upon us. The angels wont go to a wedding in a haram environment...
