Salam, i needed a question answered. Me and my partner are getting married soon Insha’Allah and the suggestion of Mehr Fatimi came when we were discussing mehr. Upon research ive come to find there are two opinions, one states it as 480 dirhams converted to silver tola and one states it as 400 mithqaal converted to silver tola. My question is, why is there disparity and which amount is correct or most acceptable?



بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

الجواب حامدا ومصليا

Mahr Fatimi silver weight amounts are opinions of the scholars and there is no problem in that. However, the most preferred opinion is the 480 Dirham.

٤٨٠
