New Recruit
...
Yeah and if all that doesn't work out, avdi maa nu siday haat naal chantaa maro.First of all let's call it what it obviously is i.e. physical abuse and would amount up to a battery charge in the developed world and is without a doubt condemn able act...
However, we don't know all the variables at play here. With the talk of "moral annihilation" at play any reasonable person has to be forced to see it through the lens of both parties i.e. the girl and her mother.
So this is the usual scenario,and let us customize it to our culture
1- The girl fell in love with some guy, her family protested because they had some other guy in mind for her and she wanted to marry the guy she fell in love with because she saw some inherent characteristics, a good personality and a great work ethic etc etc.... In that case, I don't know who I'd side with, because if I'm putting myself in the shoes of the lover, I have a very strong emotional reasoning that I can also rationalize ...
However, in the same scenario If I put myself in the shoes of the parents I might see some very rational thinking and reasoning on the part of the parents ..... So I think it depends on the case in this scenario. Maybe someone with a deeper understanding can share their reasoning ...@Moonlight @Zibago @Spring Onion @Akheilos ... Your input would be appreciated ...
2- The second scenario is more clear where a girl might have fall in love with a guy because he's a good looker and stuff like that. Qualities that don't merit to much once you step in to the real world. On the other hand the parents have a good guy in mind for their daughter who belongs to a good family, has a good personality, a good work ethic etc.
In this case siding with the family is alot easier however, the one saying "qabool hai" still has the final decision in his/her hand.
Now if the girl has brought this guy up in her discussion with her family as a potential partner and has asked them to consider him and they completely disregard her opinion and then she goes out and performs a court marriage. Well I do think there are some moral considerations in place speaking from a cultural perspective ---- however it pales in comparison to a girl just going off on her own performing a court marriage behind her folks back without even letting them know anything.
3- The third scenario is the dangerous one ... where the dirty side of our society shows its ugly face. Many times marriages are performed solely for the purpose of gaining wealth. There are observable cases with the culprits belonging from the boy's side of the family and there are also cases where the culprits are from the girl's side of the family. Some times girls themselves are gold diggers. Sometimes boy's get too taken in by a girl's beauty. Just working off stereotypical situations here ....
In this case serious moral issues are there where the ultimate goal is lust for a body or for coin ....
My take on this whole marriage issue as a guy and a bachelor myself is ...
First of all ... don't fall in love before marriage
If you do ... Fall in love with someone with a good heart and a humble personality... instead of someone with a pretty face or a "hot bod" as most immature kids do these days ...
If your sure that you are in love with someone .... as a guy ... then it's time to grow a pair and talk to the folks.Convince them your ready to take the big step. If they don't agree ... (usually cuz they think that our kid is young and immature and its a phase) ... time to become a man and get a job ... start taking responsibility and show them that you've matured ...
Convince your parents ... then you go visit ... Ask her parents ... Give them enough breathing room to clear you and your family by asking around as is common practice. Most likely the decision will be in your favor ... and if not ... no need to hang your head down ... there are 7 billion inhabitants of this planet ... half of them the other gender ... You'll get someone don't worry

what I think is that she exercised her Islamic right to choose the partner of her choice.no matter what her parents have no right to drag her into court.it is situations like this where we have to decide what do we value more our culture or our religion.First of all let's call it what it obviously is i.e. physical abuse and would amount up to a battery charge in the developed world and is without a doubt a condemn able act...

Didn't got the notification for it sry for the late reply now
and this is a terrible suggestion
It is already in the "Social & Current events"
But Too Many Issues are being discussed here which has nothing to do with this being a defence forum
Yeah same thing is happening to me too.
As i said this is in appropriate section and there are so many members who're interested in sections other than defence not everyone is an expert in jets, tanks, guns etc :p and people can always ignore these sections.
webby ko tag krein phr? :p
