Closing Marriage Halls at 10pm is a good step by the government
Wednesday 17 July 2013
One of the positive steps by the government of Punjab is the decision of
closing all wedding halls at 10 pm. Before this decision, marriage ceremonies
lasted till dawn that affected the routines of the participants on one side,
and increased overall cost on unnecessary wedding rituals. Marriage is a Sunnah
of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) but we have made it an event full of rituals which
are generally taken and borrowed from other nations. We feel proud of excessive
outflow of money on our wedding functions regardless of the fact that we are
harming others.
Our pride is extravagance on marriages in society breeds many problems. This
show off of lavish expenditure on unnecessary rituals leaves others in
inferiority complex. Wedding halls were reserved till late at night and dance
parties and singers were invited to entertain the participants of wedding. Restricting
marriage hall and closing them at 10 pm has checked this lavishness a great
deal.
