Minority Development Forum strongly condemned dinner post Nikah, fireworks, orchestra and other excessive celebrations during weddings and decided to raise public awareness among Muslims to make weddings simple and austere.
A delegation of MDF led by Mr. Abid Siddiqui president MDF met Mr. Zahed Ali Khan editor Siasat after he returned from his London visit and told him that all the members of MDF will follow his suit and boycott dinner post nikah. MDF also passed a resolution in this regard in a recent meeting. The delegation of MDF welcomed the bold step taken by Mr. Zahed Ali khan and asserted that the campaign is bearing fruits. They hoped that the tradition of dinner post Nikah will soon die off.
Mr. Zahed Ali Khan told that his decision was lauded wherever he went and several people offered to join the movement. He stated that in a meeting held at Dubai the Hyderabadis residing there formally announced that they will put condition on bride’s family not to serve dinner to the guests after Nikah and will maintain austerity in the wedding function.
