Girl completing the recitation of the Quraan in front of an Ustaadh for marriage proposal to be accepted

· 20 Rabiʻ II 1442 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My mom said that during marriage, the husbands family asks the girl if she had completed reading the Quran in front of an aalim/muallima/ustaadh.

I find no logic behind this, please tell the ruling about this according to the sunnah.

Answer

This is not a shar'ee requirement for accepting a proposal or for the nikaah being valid.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
