Description:
"Marriage
is
called
?Nikah?
in
Islam.
The
Arabic
word
?Nikah?
literally
means
marriage
or
matrimony.
In
the
view
of
law,
marriage
or
?Nikah?
implies
a
contract
which
objects
the
legalizing of the sexual relationship and procreation of the children.
Islamic
marriage,
?Nikah?
is
under
the
authority
of
Islamic
custom
because
it
is
recognized
as
a
social
contract
in
Myanmar.
No
special
rite
and
official
are
needed
to
be
a
valid
marriage.
Traditionally,
most
of
the
marriages
are
performed
as
the
religious
ceremonies
at
the
religious
places
by
religious
priests.
There
is
at
least
a
Mosque
in
almost
every
town or
almost
every
Muslim
community
which
has
the
marriage
register
book
that
Government
recognized.
Each
Mosque has
to
maintain
its
register
books for
long
term
except
from
the
natural
disaster.
There
are
three
kinds
of
marriage
recognized
in
Myanmar.
They
are
valid marriage, void marriage and irregular or invalid marriage..."
