Islam ask me a question
I'm am an arab girl who is 16 I still go to school and I want to go to collage. I am 3 quarters arabic and a quarter english. I really need some help with something, I fell in love with a boy that I love and will do anything for, he loves me as much as I love him. Within 3 days of speaking to each other on the phone he told his mom that he wants her to come and ask for my hand so she did the following week. My dad replied after 9 days and said yes as iwas happy with it then they come the next day and the discussed the money and jewerllery and wedding and everything the women was not able to pay the moneyt straight away. As she had a son that was waiting to get married in yemen so she had to pay for his wedding fist but she was willing to pay half of it. Basically my dad asked for 14 grand and then took it down to 11 he said he wanted 6 grand within 3 months so he could go and get the jewerlley before the price goes up but as much as the women wanted to to make me and her son happy she couldn't as she never had it. My dad is asking for too much money and making her pay for the wedding and being really confussing about it he's asking for too much and not thinking. I don't no what to do bcasue wallah I love this boy to bits can you please give me some advice:) thank you so much

If you are 16, how old is he? Girl I understand wher you come from. But, if his family doen't have what it takes to help their son with his marriage. Then, get engaged for now. You both can go finish your education which is way more important then getting married. Trust me engagement time is so much fun. Once you get married, all the fun that you had in your engagement time will stop. Don't rush you guys. Wait for him to get a job and then he can pay all you ask from him. He will not need his family financial support. Wouldn't it be a interisting to see the one you love working hard and sweating to win you heart. Baby girl l[what comes easy goes easy.]. Fahmtyni yasminn!!

Is it possible to give this more time, as I see no hurry for you to get married, so no hurry to collect the money. Given the circumstances, the gift of TIME to reconcile the financial arrangements would be a blessing to all. It also allows the relationships between families grow.
Is this possible, or is there a time limit? I mean in 3 years, it should be better then, right?

No because I have the type of family that will rush me well my dad he has never mensioned EVER force marrige and he will never do that to me but I love this boy with my heart and my soul and I trust him with everything he will never do anything to hurt or upset me, I don't need any gold buit my dad don't understand that. His moms lovley and so respectful and love her to bits. I'm going to finish collage and his going to finish university in 3 years and that's when we will defentally have everything ready but I no my dad will reck it for me AGAIN. I don't want to do anything stupid but I will if I have to for this boy. If you're a muslim you would understand but god knows.

Then answer my question - are you asking about Islam or something else?
I don't understand what you are trying to sort out. It appears your father is making the decisions in your life. You can either respect him and conform to his wishes or disrespect him and go off on your own.

It is the husbands families responsibility to pay for the wedding.
The girls parents are supposed to offer to pay half. And the husbands parents can accept or decline.

Good this was moved from weddings - and thank you, Jennie.
Jennie, what jewelry is OP asking about? Is there some jewelry that is required that the husband's family pays for and the wife's family chooses?

LOL, don't get all upset, maybe this is your dads strategy to slow things down, because he knows they cannot meet the requirements he puts on them, and it's a good one. So instead of fretting over this, see how things progress, and re evaluate the situation in 3 years, plenty of time to save for a wedding.
You are only 16, and a good parent will find ways to protect his young daughter from her own young impulses. tell this to your boyfriend and his mother, instead of all this panic, and anxiety you have.
Fathers do these things and its from a place of love and protection, and when you understand that, then you will calm yourself, and get about doing the right thing for yourself. I mean what parents just give there 16 year old daughter away for cheap, to a young unproven kid! I would not, and agree with your parents handling of this situation.
It is wise and loving and smart as hell!!

I don't know if you are on AMHD to argue or to ask a question.
What I mean is - either do it your father's way, his rules, his money OR do it your way - your rules, your money.
I am unfamiliar with a culture where you pay for a bride, so the question is foreign to me.
I don't know what advice you are looking for. No one here is going to lend you the money.

I don't think even Talaniman is going to give you money.
Have you ever met your boyfriend face to face?

You have twice said you are asking for money. I thought you meant you wanted/needed money from AMHD.
If you have never met this person you love so desperately I understand your father's concern. This sounds very impetuous.
How many boyfriends have you had in the past? (And, yes, I realize you are 16)
