Q 3: Are parties that are held in hotels, which cost a lot of money, considered to be a form of extravagance? If so, we hope that you warn against this.
A: The parties that are held in hotels involve wrong acts and many blameworthy attitudes; for they mostly involve unnecessary extravagance and excessiveness.
My advice to all the Muslim brothers is not to hold wedding parties in hotels or expensive halls. Instead, they can be held in either an inexpensive hall or at home; there is nothing wrong in this. Wedding parties must not be held in wedding palaces; holding them at home instead, wherever possible, suffices the purpose. This is preferable and avoids extravagance and wastefulness. May Allah help us!
