No ‘nikah’ if there is song and dance at wedding: UP cleric

“If a wedding has a DJ, singing and dancing, we will not solemnize the nikah,” said Qazi-e-shahr Maulana Aarif Qazmi, after addressing a meeting of Ulemas and cleric. He told that singing and dancing at weddings was not a part of Islamic culture and amounted to overspending money on the occasion. He said that the Ulemas wanted to rid the Muslim society of social evils and ensure that the girl’s side is not made to bear the additional financial burden.
