The most important part of a Muslim or Malay wedding is the Akad or the solemnization which is presided over by a kadi or a Muslim marriage solemnizer. The groom has to make a declaration correctly and clearly to everyone present.
After this, the bride and groom will sign the marriage contract, which is sealed with the mas kahwin or dowry, in cash or kind that symbolizes the beginning of the groom’s responsibility towards his now-wife in fulfilling her everyday needs.
However, some grooms do get nervous and can mess up the things that they were saying!
Recently, a video went viral of a groom who messed up the statement of his dowry, which amused Malaysians.
In the video, the groom can be seen reciting the terms of the Islamic marriage contract, also known as the Akad, and as he tries to remember what he had memorized, he accidentally states the dowry for his wife is RM500 million in cash.
Wah, that is a lot of money!
Meanwhile, the marriage officiant and witnesses can be seen facepalming as they realized what the groom had said. Others in attendance were also seen laughing after the groom’s declaration.
Book of record, mas kahwen paling mahal 😂😂 Selamat Pengantin Baru. Semoga berbahagia hingga syurga.
