What does a muslem wedding looks like?
-
So if I understood it correctly; a marriage has to be known in public.
Does that mean that every relationship you have and is made public is a "marriage"?Short example
Tim is in love with Janet, Janet is in love with Tim. In a couple of days Tim got to know Janet's friends and family and so did Janet with Tim's acquantainces.Does that example pass as a marriage according to the Koran?

Peace,
I believe marraige is completed in the act of sex.
I don't believe this is true.
And if you divorce them before having sexual intercourse with them... (2237)
Wilson
A marriage is a referred to a serious relationship I think.
-
423 - Prohibited for you (in marriage)... the daughters of your wives with whom you .have consummated the marriage- if the marriage has not .been consummated, you may marry the daughter.
Consummated? On paper or a verbal agreement?
I'm curious about how 'marriage' is ended up being an agreement on a piece of paper.

One can write the marital contract (AAuqdata alnnikah 2135) without consummating the union/marriage (intimate relations) .
In 423, the expression dhakhala biha which means word for word he enters with her, in other word they consumme their marriage. It is known that "dukhla" as the first night of the marriage .
2236-237 clarifies what is said in 423.
2236 And, there is no blame on you if you nullify the marriage before you have touched the women with whom you have signed the marital contract, and before you have appointed the marital gift. This would be an unexpected situation involving emotional trauma. Therefore, show compassion by giving her as generous a gift as you can afford. This would be an act of equity and it is a binding duty on all those who wish to be counted among the benefactors of humanity.
2237 And if unexpected circumstances lead you to divorce women before you have touched them, but after the marital gift has been fixed, give them half the amount unless they volunteer to forgo it. If the move for divorce originates purely from you, let her have the whole portion. If you men forgo it, it is closer to righteousness. O People! Never forget kindness among yourselves. This Command is from Allah Whose Law of Requital ever monitors your actions and the motives behind them.

Peace be upon you,
I think a serious relationship is viewed as a marriage. Perhaps the consumation is "dowry" which I still do not truly understand or it is commiting it to writing with witnesses. The God tells us elsewhere to put deals in writing.

This is one of the best versions sung by my favorite Yossi Azulay!!!
It is a song "boi bshalom" = "come in peace"...
And the God is always the very first mentioned!
I've seen many weddings but this one is simply BEAUTIFUL in its poised elegance and religiosity with this marvelous voice flying over the invited guests...
Enjoy!
