I want to enquire about nikah in the uae
In the UAE, Islamic marriages (Nikah) are governed by Sharia provisions applicable to both Muslims and certain non-Muslims. Key requirements include registering the marriage contract at a Sharia court, having legal age (18 Hijri years), and obtaining necessary consents. The bride requires her guardian’s approval, while two male Muslim witnesses must be present.
Premarital screening is mandatory for health assessments, covering infectious and genetic diseases. If one party has a serious medical condition, marriage may be denied. The maximum dowry (Mahr) allowed is AED 20,000 in advance and AED 30,000 deferred.
For Emirati women marrying expatriate men, additional approvals from parents and employers are needed.
To proceed:
– Register at a Sharia court.
– Complete premarital screening.
– Ensure all witnesses and approvals are in place. It’s advisable to consult with local authorities or legal experts for specific cases.
