Why is it defying the HC ruling on removing “kumari” from Kabinnama?
The concept of marriage has persisted through the millennia in several civilisations and countless societies. Through the ages, lots have changed the idea of unison and have been amended to allow both husband and wife to coexist without any bars holding them back. Nowadays, marriage is considered a legal contract, making Kabin-Nama (also referred to as Nikah Nama) the rule book. The Kabin-Nama form is drafted so that a couple can set the terms and conditions of the marriage according to their preferences.
The High Court yesterday ruled that the word “Kumari” (virgin) cannot be used before the bride’s name in “Kabinnama”, the Muslim marriage deed.
