SRINAGAR: Mirwaiz-e-Kashmir, Dr. Molvi Umar Farooq, solemnized a Nikah ceremony at the esteemed Islamic seminary Darul Uloom Qasmia. Speaking on the occasion, Mirwaiz delivered a heartfelt reminder about the spiritual significance of Nikah in Islam, emphasizing that it is not merely a social contract, but an act of âibadah a sacred act of worship and a fundamental part of oneâs faith.
Addressing the gathering of scholars, students, family members, and well-wishers, Mirwaiz said:âThe most important quality to look for in a spouse is not wealth or appearance, but character, values, and morals. Let us be guided by taqwa and akhlaaq, not materialistic or worldly considerations. Nikah is not a business transaction or a social show it is an act of worship that carries deep spiritual responsibility.â
Mirwaiz reiterated the teachings of the Qurâan and the Prophet Muhammad ï·ș, who advised the Ummah to choose spouses based on religion and good character, as this forms the true foundation of a successful marriage and a healthy society.
He also expressed concern over the growing trend of extravagant weddings, rising divorce rates, and material expectations around marriage, urging the community to return to the simplicity, sincerity, and sanctity that Islam advocates in marital life.
Mirwaiz concluded with a dua for the newlyweds and encouraged the younger generation to embrace the spirit of Islam in choosing their life partners, reminding families to facilitate marriages based on deen, not on wealth or status.
