The best marriages, the Prophet (peace be upon him) taught, are the easiest. You do not need a large budget for a blessed beginning.
Keep the Nikah simple
A Nikah needs only the essentials: consent, offer and acceptance, a modest Mahr, two witnesses and du'a. A masjid ceremony keeps costs low and blessings high.
A modest Mahr
Choose a Mahr that is meaningful but not a burden — this is itself part of the Sunnah.
The walimah
The walimah (wedding feast) can be small and heartfelt. Inviting family, neighbours and those in need brings barakah to the celebration.
