Your ceremony will be presided over by our Resident Imam, who will be given your application form’s information to check in advance. Our Data & Privacy Policy governs how we handle your data.
You must designate an alternative contact at the time of booking, and you may also designate them as the main contact for concerns pertaining to your booking, to whom we will communicate on the day of your Nikah Ceremony.
In addition to their legal marriage, many couples desire real Islamic acknowledgement of their union. This straightforward service, in which the bride and groom freely consent to an Islamic marriage and the husband presents the bride with a dowry, can be performed at Masjid Ghousia.
Before setting up a Nikah, a person must examine a variety of factors, including:
1. The Nikah must be performed with the bride and groom’s consent.
2. There will be two male adults present as witnesses.
3. Mahr – (The Marriage Gift).
Only once the proper steps have been taken can the marriage-gift (Mahr) Nikkah/Marriage be performed.
Documents Needed For An Islamic Wedding (Nikah) Booking:
