Influence Of Religion To Arab Dating

By Rebecca Bell


After puberty people start developing some different attraction towards an opposite gender. This makes one to get attached and start liking another person. This makes people to get committed into relationships. However being that no oath is taken many people do not take it seriously . Influence of culture on Arab dating is great. Their tradition does not allow this kind of relationship before marriage.

Faith is a building block of this community . Many of them follows Islamic beliefs . This restricts any form of relationship between male and female. But if it is a modest relationship no conflicts arise. This is mainly done to make people avoid adulterous relationships.

One can get a partner in two ways . One is by suggestion from parents. This does not mean they have to marry a suggested spouse . If they do not like the partner chosen for them they reject such suggestions . Another way is by meeting someone you like and you ask for their hand in NIKHA which is marriage . After this agreement they both inform parents about their decision . This is done so as to ask for blessings.

When parents have no issues they bless that union. Sometimes they fail to bless them . That ends to a bad marriage life according to their beliefs. That union ends up failing . In extreme cases people may divorce . Many people when denied blessings they do not marry. Those that are blessed start planning for a wedding immediately.

First marriage advice is given to them before finagling a weeding. This is to prepare them for their next step in life. Wedding is done inside a mosque but different rooms. Ladies and males are usually in different room they only meet during the final day. Islamic teachings are followed in this process. This is because it is a holy function. Music is not allowed in such ceremony as it is against Islamic teachings.

This ceremony should be simple as possible. It should not consume much money. Marriage is considered as a praise ceremony. That is why it is done in a humbling manner. In some cases this whole presses takes place in a conference hall. After three days they start their relationship having blessing from God and parents. Most relationships last till death separates them.

Marriage is adored by many people . Everybody in these culture dreams of marrying. This is why people do not build such kind of relationships before marriage. If a girl is involved in such a relationship she might lose her virginity before marriage. When that happens she is likely to miss someone who can marry her.

There is a harsh punishment for unmarried people who are in illicit affairs this include adulterous people. These punishments serves as an example to others making them to wait till they get married.
