Join our “Let’s Talk” session this Tuesday where we will be discussing the hotly debated issue of Mahr prices. How much should a woman ask for? Is there a limit? Is it better to ask for something small rather than something big? Does your family decide how much you get?
These are all the questions we aim to discuss and debate in this week’s safe space session - can’t wait to see you there!
Let’s Talk sessions are safe spaces created to allow the discussion and debate of taboo issues in the Muslim community. These sessions have 3 parts to them - first is where we discuss and debate the chosen topic. The second part is where we look at what Islam specifically says about the issue - this is important to clear up any misconceptions or ideas that are often imposed by culture and not religion. The third and final part is where we discuss individual and communal solutions to issues brought up. This helps us have an objective approach to the problem and gives a sense of hope and change.
