A man from Kerala Ijas Hakim has given 100 books as ‘Haq Mahr’ to his wife. This Kerala couple and their mahr went viral on the internet.
The bride Ajna Nizam got 100 books that she wanted to read. Ijas knew her favorite ones because she gave him a list of 100 books that she wants to read. The books included the Quran, Bible and Bhagavad Gita, Constitution of India and Khaled Hosseini’s books and some from Murakami (Murakami is a Japanese writer. His books and stories have been bestsellers in Japan as well as internationally).
Normally mahr is either a large sum of money or valuables or property that a Muslim man gives to his bride at the time of the nikkah.
Soon the couple and their story started doing rounds on the internet. Neither Ijas nor Ajna wanted to end up as a viral couple goal but their friends made that happen.
