QUESTION: There is a marriage proposal for me. He is a good guy, a practicing Muslim, and has good knowledge about Dee. The problem is, our parents want videography for our wedding, but I don’t. Even though the guy knows about it, he didn’t take any step. He said, “I don’t know anything. It’s all up to my family. Whatever they want to do, they will.” What should I do?

ANSWER:
You must put your foot down and do not agree to this.
If he is as practicing as you say, he should man up and talk to his parents rather than being a mommas boy! Such a negative attitude about what is halal and haram should give you a preview of how life would be with him and his family especially if he is going to make you live with them in a joint family.
