Meher is financial protection for you and your future offspring

Your financial security

-When you're pregnant, your career will take a backseat somehow, even if it's due to maternity leave.
-This means you will be in financial trouble should there be a divorce, or your husband drops dead/loses his job/gets injured.

Wedding party vs Meher + Marriage plans
I strongly urge sisters to think of a decent meher payment. If the man you are talking to is middle-class or poor, trust me, his family and friends give him money gifts anyway. So, get strategic, and ask for a good sized meher and instead, don't have a large wedding. These wedding halls costs THOUSANDS.
Also, you can use the money intended for the aroos, to buy a car or invest in something for your marriage.

Selfish men
If a man acts greedy and tries to short-change you, he is a selfish fool, who doesn't think ahead. Any normal man will want you to be secure, even if you don't end up working out.
Stay away from financially abusive fools.


Always think ahead, and saving for your future, your family's future. If something happens (divorce, death, injury), you have a savings account to fall back on. It's possible you can get injured or die before your husband or children, at least you will leave something behind for them. Instead of a CAT or some other bullshit.

For your sake, the sake of your children and your marriage, never combine your romantic feelings with financial decisions.
