shamsia said:Can someone please tell me what rukhsati is? I stay in Hyderabad, India, and havent really seen many of those. Yes we do have cases where the nikah is done and after some time (could be months or years) the valima takes place. Does rukhsati mean the valima? Or maybe we have a different name here for it. Just curious. Thanks!
Ruksati is a spiritual act of two souls not soles meeting in heavens, angels shower their blessings on you .......... on that auspecious day the bride's family depart her but then from the back door she has to return home because embassy wont give her visa for approximately 24 months ..............this holy event is closely monitored by our super intellectuals desi's working at CHC-ISB by sightseeing the rukhsati pictures over a cup of tea, goras are also invited and then all of them see the angels in watermarks on those pictures ........... without this watchful and mindful or mindless if I could say "incidence" if not an EVENT, the marriage is not considered complete .......... CHC-ISB staff has been obsesed with making sure that all the girls get some personal time with their husbands before the spouses depart to Canada ......... and without rukhsati that cannot be promised .......... rukhsati is a bond that unites two worlds which are set apart by few oceans and mind numbing 12000 km and you know what two worlds i am talking about ........ you can just have a nikkah and ruksati and you are still geniune marriage.......... otherwise they will have your babies attend your ruksati ........ rukhsati is an emotionally charged, financially economical, procedurally required, morally needed and physically compentent life saving or threatning event ............ ok I gotta go back to work now
