Q: I am engaged to be married. My bride to be is doing her degree from home. She wants to stay at home till completion. So our families decided to hold the nikah soon and let me stay at her place to consummate the marriage. After she completes her degree we bring her home and give the traditional dinner party. Is that permissible in Islam? Please sight hadith for me to prove it to my neighbors.
A: The party is called waleemah. This party is supposed to be done immediately after the nikaah is consummated.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
