Yet we see even the People of the Book like Christians and  Jews make rabbis and fathers present in a marriage. It is just a  tradition or is it religious obligation? I heard in one of Javed Ghamidi  Sahib\u2019s lectures that <em>nikah<\/em> is acceptance of both parties. So why do we call clerics, fathers and rabbis to conduct the nikah?<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>In the Islamic Shari&#8217;ah <em>nikah<\/em>  is accomplished when an adult male and female with thier open and free  consent declare in the open that they are entering marriage bond. The  presene of the cleric is not binding. It does not affect the marriage if  two indidividuals gather their friends and family and accounce this.  However, in our culture we try to keep the spirit of the open  declaration and also try to involve the religious scholars to deliver a  sermon and advise the couple and pray for them. This is not necessary  but it is important for us and the elder of the family or another  respectable person advises the couple and prays for them in  congregation. As for the Jews and Christains I would request you to try  to find out their laws in thier sources. You can visit chabad.org for  Jewish law and any other christian site.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2014-12-10<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6181\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wanted to ask what is the role of clerics in <em>nikah<\/em>  because no verse of the Quran is necessary to be recited in the  ceremony.
