Shamal, in her video says, “every woman demands gold and money, but since I am a writer, I have demanded books. If being a writer I do not value them, how can I expect the common man to value them? This is the reason why I have demanded books from my husband in my ‘Haq Mehr’.”Shamal, in her video says, “every woman demands gold and money, but since I am a writer, I have demanded books.

According to Islamic laws, the groom has to make a mandatory payment Haq Mehr directly to his wife-to-be upon taking her hand in marriage.
According to Pakistani customs, it is usually paid in the form of money, jewelry or property.
Twitterati have appreciated the young woman’s initiative, with most people speaking in her favour saying that it is great thinking by her and we don’t see such things happening in our culture.
It’s a progressive thought. The couple is lucky enough to have each other and they will definitely enjoy writing in each other’s company. More power to them 🙌🏻!
