Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a marriage contract and engagement?
Engagement is a mere promise of marriage with no legal effects; the marriage contract is a legal commitment that produces financial, lineage, and inheritance rights immediately upon conclusion.
How does a marriage contract end?
By divorce (husband's voluntary act), annulment (judicial invalidation for legal causes), khulʿ (wife's concession), or death (natural termination).
Is the contract valid without official registration?
It is Sharia-valid when its pillars are met but is not legally recognized until officially registered. Unregistered marriage exposes parties to penalties.
