No band, baja, baraat as affluent Muslims solemnise nikah in the holy city of Medina

IndiaTimes Sunday, 3 December 2023
A growing number of affluent Muslims choose to perform the nikah ceremony near the Prophet's grave in Medina, seeking divine blessings. The cost of the ceremony is minimal, with no need for lavish decorations or a grand feast. The families of the bride and groom simply engage a local kazi for the solemnization, offer prayers, and have a simple meal. The opportunity to perform Umrah in Mecca is an added bonus for those who choose to marry in Medina. These weddings also provide an opportunity for hidden charity and allow close friends and relatives to visit the holy sites.
