India is rich in culture and
heritage and so are its people. It is a land of diverse cultures and
traditions, though being a Hindu nation it has given equal rights and
importance to Muslims. In fact next to the Hindu majority Muslims are second in
population count. Muslims are also very traditional and culturally active.
Compare to Hindu wedding, Muslim weddings are mellowed and softer in rituals
and customs. Muslim culture is very quiet and humble, the religion doesn’t
allow wastage of money in lavish ceremonies, and the bride party is not
burdened with any formality. Muslim marriage is accomplished only in a silent
tradition of Nikah (exchanging vows according to the Islamic law or Shariah).
But now-a-days due to the amalgamation of different cultures and traditions
even Muslims have adapted Hindu cultures in their marriages. The Muslims also
hosts Sangeet, Haldi, Mehndi and a grand Marriage ceremony hosted by the
Bride’s side, which is compensated with a more grand reception by the Groom’s
family.
Just like their weddings the Muslim
wedding invitation cards are also very catchy and beautiful. The cards are of
different styles and patterns but one thing is common in all Muslim wedding invitation
cards is the name of
Allah, the most beneficiary and merciful and Bismillah (it is a sacred
testimony which Muslims reads before start of any work). The Muslim wedding
cards are made beautiful by carving of Urdu calligraphy, this enhances the look
of the card making is very authentic and beautiful.
