♥ A Muslim marriage is not a sacrament. Rather, it is a covenant, solidified by either verbal agreement or signing a written contract. Whether oral or written, the marriage contract (nikkah) is legally binding, and at a minimum should confirm:
- the couple's consent to marry
- the approval of the bride's guardian
- the presence of two Muslim witnesses
- the specification of a mahr, or gift to the bride ♥
