what a bunch of crap

Just my opinion
Name: Duaa	2005-08-16
I'm not so sure about the word "obedient" remaining in the vow. Respectful is a better word.

My opinion on the vows
Name: Graine	2005-11-30
I think these vows are very sexist and it makes the bride sound more like a dog rather than a women. The bride seems to be commiting herself a lot more than the man does and the way the bride says "obedient" and the man says "helpful" completely backs up the way men and women are stereotyped.

vows for crazy people
Name: Fergal	2005-12-28
these people should convert to Paganism, they would have a kinder version of God if they did and wouldnt be so nasty and hurtful. A muslim wedding? Id rather eat glass

just my 2cents
Name: becca	2006-01-15
yea thats exactly as i was thinking. i do not like this vow. it sounds like it makes the man in complete control, and the woman has to follow everything he says, or tells her to do. an obedient wife. sometimes theres a line, and this vow has no lines. respecting each other is more like it. this is all i gotta say abt this.. so called "vow"

islam is a divine religion, all u snooty opinionated idiots should shove ur bloody opinions up ur ass.

MY VIEW
Name: LadyInDemaNd	2006-06-25
well u bunch of people just dunnoe wat muslim wedding is all about... this vow is not sexist at all. the man is in charge of the family and we as a wife has to respect that. if u tink its a crap,than just get lost and may u rot in hell..

This is all made up... there are no such vows in a muslim wedding ceremony..

...
Name: echo	2006-07-17
there's really no such wedding vow in a muslim wedding ceremony. and for those people don't comment on something which you really doesn't know anything about.

And...
Name: mr punch	2007-09-05
...What exactly? What gives you the right to pass judgment on these vows? For a start, a lot of the traditional Christian ones are the same ('To love, honour and obey' anyone?). For another thing, sure it's stereotypical but unfortunately that's the way some people like it. But hey! You don't like it, here's an idea: don't use it!

um..

I guess we can truly judge a society by how they treat their women. Earth has a long way to go...

Make qulaified statements

Name: Noor

2007-02-20

In the Current climate Islam is synoymus with extremism. This is very sad. There are extremists in every faith. they just don't get the attention of the media.
what is sadder is People actually beleive the negativity that they are fed and make unqulified statements such as these on this site.

Junior and echo are correct in that there are no muslim vows.

The ceremnoy consists of prayers and the bride is asked 3 time if she wants to marry the groom. to make certain that she is a willing participant and that she really does want to get married.

There are arranged marriages in the w

Please for the sake of humanity, please qulaify your staments before making ones that will inflame and create more hatred in the world.

The vows
Name: E.T.	2007-03-01
These vows made the man sound in control! I don't like that. I think when you get married both people should have a fair say in everything that is going on. If I were getting married these vows would not be on my list.

Respect each other

Name: Anosha Syeda

2007-03-01

In the Muslim religion the man is in charge of the family, where as in Christian family things are generally run by the two, TOGETHER, as one. There is not equality for man and woman in the Muslim faith. It is clearly reflected with these vows. (whether there are vows in a Muslim marriage or not)Also, I think it is extremely immature to condemn people to hell and throw out insults, over something as silly as this. Please people, try to respect each others opinions.

think before you comment
Name: i respect	2007-08-21
to those who give comments be respectful. if you have nothing beneficial to say just keep your hands off the keyboard. never insult other people's religion or culture. you think you're so good?

You people speak of which you know nothing. A muslim husban can loves his wife, the mother of his sons. It her responsibility to provide sons, if she not fulfil that responsibility, she not worthy of marriage and deceived husban! Were she to do so, she is dog, Holy Quar‘an and the Holy Prophet condemn her. You cannot understand because you not Muslim, we can love our dog, wife, truck, but no where are we commanded to love anything in Holy Quar‘an!

I believe in order to understand a certain something you need to learn much more about it. I have study many religions and it is islam that women get the most respect for what they do..Islam is away of life rather than a religion..both man and women are treated of equal..So before judging this subject or anything in life ask yourself how much do you really know and how much do you choose to base your opinion on.....In conclusion i understand how this may be mistaken as being stereotypical or biased when indeed its not... Have a fantastic day...

This is my opinion
Name: Layaly	2007-04-26
please no one of us Muslims said anything about your wedding vows although that after a while u forget this vows and start to disrespect your other half .. its not a crap and its for sure not a sexist

I am a Muslim, married, woman and this is not the vow I made. My husband and I said the same vow, the same length and obdiance was not part of it.

not the true faith

Name: David

2007-05-27

I have heard many Muslims make many statements about their religion, but not one of them has ever come forward to prove that theirs is the true faith. Is there a Muslim anywhere who is willing to step forward and actually prove that Islam is the real faith? Where is the historical accuracy? Where is the concrete evidence? Religion is not just about what you want to believe in, it is about what's true and what's not true. Can anyone please step forward, at the risk of denouncing his or her faith in public, and actually prove Islam to be true? I didn't think so.

The height of bigotry

Name: GJR

2007-06-04

Firstly, there is no such thing as a muslim wedding vow and the comments posted on this site are extremely rude - clearly only because they are written by ignorant bigots.

Secondly, Islam was the first religion to give rights to women and affords them great respect.

Thirdly, should you want proof that Islam is the true religion, than read up on it and educate yourself. God has provided all the information to aid in searching for the truth. Instead of remaining ignorant and intolerant, why not try a little respect for the unknown and educate yourself - if nothing else you may become a slightly better person for it.

Under Sharia law a husband can divorce his wife simply by telling her, "you are divorced," three times, while women seeking separation must navigate a multitude of legal hurdles that usually take two years to complete.

As noted in a comment above, we look on Islam as an extreme relegion..... so, if you are not, then were is the voice of reason from your relegious leaders, where were they after 9-11, where are they now in East Asia as Muslims behead Indue..... the list goes on....

This is why their is war

The ignorance that is out there.

So everyone hates muslims now?

Please Don't bring up 9-11 because if you really want to talk about that you should ask your own government. I'm sure they have some answers and probably a blue print of it all!

Why can't people just be respectful of other peoples beliefs?

Everyone has their own Culture and own way of life.
DEAL WITH IT!

alot of woman do it, They let the man be the man and be HEAD of the House... that is being an obidient wife. Making sure Dinner is cooked and kids taken care of, laundry and dishes are done!

A LOT of White Bread American women do it! Alot of woman want their man satisfied...

isnt that considered Obidient?

No wonder they blow themselves up... It's the holy Quar'an that sucks the holy profit out of their miserable existance. It's easily fixed with a quick trip to America to see what civilization can be, the good and the bad. Civilized nations don't kill for religeon... that's why it rhymes with "pigeon."

"Islam was the first religion to give rights to women and affords them great respect." I guess that´s why I see all Islamic women covered up from head to toe, while the men go about in supertight t-shirts and gold chains.

"Everyone has their own Culture and own way of life. DEAL WITH IT!" Yeah, let them suppress and abuse women all they like. It´s their way of life after all. By "DEAL WITH IT", I assume you mean: The next time you see the victims, just turn off your television and pretend it´s not happening.

2008-02-25

that's what you call "being prejudice". staright away assuming that the vows is trying to put down the women. why do people always look at us and judge us like as if Islam has taught all the men to treat their wives very badly??? you can find other men with different nationality, different background and religion whom treat their wives unfairly. you've got to realise that religion was never there to teach bad, its the people. so next time before anyone says anything negative about certain things, do your research initially so you know what you're saying and you can stop your mouth from talking sh*t.

who ever posted this as muslim wedding vows should do their research before they post wrong information. These are NOT muslim vows and for the people (such as above) who believe this to be true is STUPID! Learn and educate yourself before you start to JUDGE!

I also believe this is very sexist. I mean, whats up with the whole ovedient thing.

Never heard of this one

Name: Roslan

2008-04-16

I apologise but I find a need to clarify. I'm a Musllim and there are no specific vows. What happens is that the solemniser will seek permission from the woman whether she wishes to be married to the man. Only when her consent is obtained can the marriage take place. This is the true Muslim practice. Even if a marriage is arranged, the decision is still up to the woman.
The vow above appears be a tribal or community-based. What I did vow to my wife was to honor her, protect her and entrust her with my love and property. On her part, she promised to honor me, be my confidant and share our lives as one.

no kidding

In a religion where the women are forced to wear clothing that covers them completely from ever feeling the warmth of the sun on their skin, where women are abused in the name of "the holy prophet", and men are permitted to cheat on their wives, not to mention the female circumcison that makes it physically impossible for the female to enjoy sex, is it really all that suprising that it would sound like they wre trading dogs? Yes, their religion is sexist... men do what ever you want with out consequences, women, on the other hand, step out of line and you will pay for it. Yes, again, the woman commits a lot more in a muslim marriage than the man... he gets to live to his hearts contentment and she gets the pleasure (*hint of sarcasm*) with cleaning, cooking, rearing his children, have a horrible sex life with a man that probaly has multiple partners, and trying all of her life to make a lost man happy. And this, apparently, beautiful thing(*hint of sarcasm*), is the fastest growing religion in the world... in stead of the religion/ relationship with a savior, who loves you and laid down his life for you and your husband to do the same, without thinking. YOU CHOOSE.

I feel sorry for the women

Name: Gloria

2008-05-14

Oh, sure - a Muslim woman attending her ARRANGED marriage gets asked three times if she really wants to get married, and she is able to say NO? To the same "man" who will kill her is she is raped? By his own relatives??? The father turns over his innocent daughter to some pig who treats her like crap for the rest of her life - she's got to stay covered from head to toe, she can't drive, work, wear makeup, have fun, laugh, be her own person or anything good. She must work like a dog, look like a dog and act like a beaten dog! I am so glad I was born in this country - I never would have made it under those rules! Yuk!!
I feel sorry for all those women - I don't care if they SAY they are happy, they don't know what it is to be happy or free, so until they have a taste of freedom and respect and true caring, they are miserable! Pray for them.

I feel that these vows are very sexist, why is it that the wife has to be honesty and with sincerity, to be for you an obedient and faithful wife.” and the husband has to be honesty and sincerity, to be for you a faithful and helpful husband.”

Real Muslim Wedding Vows

Name: Hamid

2008-07-16

The "vows" on this page look nothing like any Muslim ceremony I've been to... including my own. I'm not sure of the source of these words is, but its clear this page is not an authority.

In Islam the man symbolically proposes to the woman. There is no pledge of obedience from the woman that I've ever heard of. Also:

1) The husbands makes his pledge first.

2) The husband must offer a gift or dowry (mahr). This is Sunna, i.e. MANDATORY.

3) In some traditions, the man must propose three times before the woman answers.

4) In many traditions, the man must provide a "pre-nup" sum of money that the woman keeps in case of divorce.

5) The woman has to provide... NOTHING!

All of this is according to the Prophet. And personally, I'd believe him before this website, which doesn't reflect Islam at all.

Re My opinion on the vows

Name: Max

2008-09-07

Yes, I agree, they are sexist, but I challenge you to find 1000 year old vows that do not place the man in the position of leadership and the woman in the position of follower/servant/whatever you want to call it.
Compare it with the christian vows on this website. The man promises to be headship/to guide/to lead, etc. The woman promises to serve/to submit/etc.
Unfortunately equalism is a recent phenomenon and nowhere in the world 1000 years ago were vows spoken which put the man and the woman on equal terms.
I, too, don't like these vows, but my greatest complaint is that they lack poetry, an unfortunate consequence of translation.

Well.

Wow! I guess everyone so far disagrees on these vows! Its the obedient part thats got me fired up. But i agree, it does make the woman sound like she's a dog.....this is crap! I sure hope both man and wife are muslim and agree with these vows because if one is of another relgion then they may not end up getting married.....especially if its the woman who's not muslim.

Repsect it
Name: Jackie	2008-11-08
The Quran does state that a wife is to be obedient and most Muslim women in the world are very comfortable and self-confident enough to be able embrace the idea of obedience to their partner. If we cannot understand it as modern Americans, at least let's try to respect it.

2008-11-14

u all really should just get over this.. Wats up with ya'll.. Listen up, u people who thinkgs that they know islam,and that all this with women beeing untreated well, y do u bother talking! Cause is u really knew the religion u'll know that such thing isnt true. This vows are only traditionally, not everyone says them! And for u who says women are not free? Excuse me i guess u've only heard about women with Burkha!! Wake up and face reality, havnt u seen islamic women feelin more free then urselfs.. And mostly arnt covered from head to toe! Seriously, which planet do u live in.. Thailand, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Dubai, Turkey etc are all muslim lands.. Tell me how are the women treated there, how do they look like? Just stop harrassing other peoples religions even though they have to b that strict, and those who compare terrorrisme with islam dont know nothing at all too.. cause a terrorist isnt muslim, and a muslim is never terrorrist, cause according to islam this is not allowed! So face up and dont be judgmental to others beliefs, n if so, dont share! I dont want u guys to love Muslims, but if a person havnt done anything wrong to u, y hate it cause of its religion! just look up and continue to walk, cause these unnecessery talk shouldnt've started at all!

Translation
Name: nnn	2008-12-04
One thing to keep in mind is these vows are translated from another language, often Arabic. Some words that can be interchangeable in translation can actually change the connotation of the phrase as shown here. Using another word, like ones brought up: repectful or helpful, would be more appropriate so as to not convey an alternate, unintended meaning.

The Koran specifically allows men to beat their wives if they are disobedient. Argue your way out of that, you naive apologists. Is there another religion in the world which declares all other faiths to be heresy, and promises paradise to mulims who kill 'infidels'?

My opinion on the vows

THIS VOWS IS VERY GOOD FOR MUSLIMS NOT FOR NON MUSLIMS IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE VOWS DON'T GIVE BAD COMMENTS FOR MUSLIMD VOWS OKK..........................

These are short.

Name: Amanda

2009-03-03

These vows are quite short, usually ive heard longer.

And to people leaving rude comments, not all women wear Burkas ((Head to toe covering)) not all women wear Hijabs ((head scarves)) but a lot of women like myself choose to wear it for modesty, please understand I am white, and i live in America - i do it on my own free will, as well as MOST women.

We are not oppressed, we wear it willingly and with pride. Please, instead of hating the religion, go research on it.

Hmm, obedience verses helpfulness?

I agree that respectful is a better word. In fact our Christian bible requires (asks?) a woman to have respect for her husband and little else. The husband is supposed to love her more than anything, to the point of laying his life down for her.

The greater expectation lays upon that the man than the woman.

Is it sexist? Such ideas have been overlooked for nearly the last hundred years, hearkening back to an age of life long marriage, before our era of a 50% divorce rate.

Cheers!

These are very old tradtional vows. All old vows are like that, it was the way of things back then. Write better ones if you don't like it!

No vows are taken in a muslim wedding. The bride is asked 3 times if she is willing to marry the groom. Believe what you like, but its true.

What do you expect
Name: Christian	2009-07-29
These vows are in line with the teachings and practice of Islaam. That is why they are what they are. These sentiments are all through their teachings and practices. Yes, they are one sided, they are meant to be.

it makes the woman out to sound like a servant rather than a bride. i cant believe women actually recite those vowes.

Dont butt in
Name: The Muslim	2009-08-06
I am a Muslim; I know Man and woman are not equal. Even in other societies they are not. That is why in their wedding Father brings the bride to groom, she does not come on her own and husband. She wears the veil not groom. But some peoples are in denial. Any way Thanks for non-muslim trashy opinions. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS AND LIVE IN FOOLS HEAVEN.

Pretty much what I expected. The woman is bound by religion and tradition, whereas the guy's vows don't appear to bind him at all. He says "faithful", but that means nothing when you take on multiple wives. Thank goodness I was born in a place with religious freedom.

Respect
Name: Star	2009-10-21
These are cultural wedding vows. Don't like them? Don't use them. It is called respecting others culture and customs.

Take it or leave it...
Name: Tash	2009-11-04
This is only an EXAMPLE of one particular faith's vows. You don't have to like it, or use it, but to say that it is "crap" or anything along those lines is just being ignorant. That's a really rude to say. You should respect that this is another religion's custom. Take it or leave it.

Quoting Nour
Name: Zak	2009-11-27
"Name: Nour 2007-08-08 I am a Muslim, married, woman and this is not the vow I made. My husband and I said the same vow, the same length and obdiance was not part of it."

correction
Name: sara	2009-12-28
There is no such thing as "vows" in a traditional muslim wedding. The bride and groom are asked if they will take each other, then everyone present recites the fatiha, a surate of the curan. The bride doesn't pledge obedience to her husband nor the groom "helpfulness", whatever that means. Now who invented this supposedly traditional vow and why??!

No surpirses here
Name: Bill	2010-01-06
it's very evident that the muslim faith holds little respect for women.as a male of no faith I find this disgusting and denigrating this is something emanating from the stone age

waste of a life
Name: Bill	2010-01-06
Religion what a waste of a life! Dedicating your whole life to something that isn't even real. It only seems real because you have been taught it all your life and you don't know any better. It feels good to have an open mind and to be objective and rational and not to live a life of falsehood.

no wedding vows in islam
Name: moe	2010-01-07
there are no wedding vows in islam, the imam just makes a speech, they ask the bride three times, if she wants to get married, and the groom once, when they both say yes, they get married.

My opinion
Name: Siera	2010-01-14
How comes the woman has to read a longer piece than the man. Thats not fair is it?

Typical

allah must have hated women when he was alive, the man does as he wants and the woman is just a baby churning machine with no rights

vows

Jeez u people are bloody ignorant. Islam has no wedding vows like this. plz do ur research properly. and before u ignorant people diss Islam and it's women... clean up your own back yards bcoz the highest rate of divorce, infidelity and abuse is found in the british and american societies. islam respects women, that is why so many of your women are converting to Islam.

stupid
Name: nas	2010-01-22
PLEASE LEARN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RELIGION AND CULTURE!! DONT BE SO DAMN IGNORANT! THESE ARE CULTURAL VOWS THAT SOMEONES GRANNY MADE UP, ITS GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH ISLAM

This Is Not Appreciated

Name: Miss

2010-02-13

First things first... Allah is God not the prophet Mohammad. From what I have read in here this all makes me very sad that there are so many people who are uneducated on what the Muslim faith consists of... Many people have said that this religion is the first to provide women with rights... so here are a few examples... Back in the day when this religion began, women everywhere, not just the future Muslims, were set in the role of the homemaker not able to go out or work because in those times men could literally "do" whatever they wanted. By covering up the women this freed them to be able to go outside of the home and not be objectified. The cultures where the women walk behind the men, well that is for their protection as well. Islam is the first to provide women with rights actually allowing them a divorce. And if anyone brings up the violence that has been in the news, first do your research and know that those people are not really Muslims in the same way the KKK are not really Christians, Just so you know Jesus was a Jew from the Middle East(an Arab). I know this isn't going to change the mind of any of you who are so set in your ways of hating, just try remember that Jesus brought a message of acceptance and tolerance, not of violence and hatred, so even if you don't feel what they are doing is right remember what Christianity is about.

Ownership
Name: Eros	2010-02-20
This is a vow of ownership where the woman has subjugated herself to the man as required in a man's point of view. Any person who is a convert must be asking themselves why would I agree to this.

some respect
Name: jenny	2010-02-22
eros...and the rest of u, u know nothing about Islam. There are no such vows in Islam, this is made up by some chancer. Guys dont be so intolerant especially if you know nothing about another religion, rather ask a proper muslim!

Think for a second
Name: Common Sense	2010-05-10
This vow is not a traditional vow of a Muslim wedding and its just what someone has stated as their opinion of it. The Equality in love and respect between a man and woman is very important in Islam.

why
Name: Tracy	2010-05-18
Why are people upset about these vows. Christains vows are just about the same "love and obey till death do us apart" only thing differant is most christains are lying, divorce rates prove that.

This is correct
Name: Pantel	2010-05-27
I like it completely. Face it women are dogs and need to be instructed on how to act. Its just a formality that serves to show them what is to be expected before the beatings must start. Keep up the good work Muslims!
