quote="COOL-MAN"][quote="sahYou missed my second post then.
the somali word meher is a misused word like the tartiib word wich means slowly while in arabic it means to put in order.
Mahr in arabic means her value the whatsoever he should pay for her, it stands for yarad in here.
Meher stands for the nikaax for example If you paid her yarad without nikaax it is not halal but you can pay the yarad(almahr) later if she agrees. Nikaax and kitaab are the same terms and the same thing.
glad to share it with you.

well explained. Shukran.
Seems your arabic is bettet than your somali. Its the opposite with me lol
Sahal..
Belive me kambuli is the expert. Better listen and learn from het.[/quote]
Cafwan. as for kambuli, didn't read much of her posts, she hardly visites. Unless that somalis use the same meher term for both nikaax and mahr(yarad) and then the word yarad will be left out of a nothing.
Thus, her assertion doesn't make sense.
