indian muslim women cultures

one day my friend sends me message, she said to me to help her to give her information about indian culture especially about muslim women in india which concern about the custom of indian muslim women in marriage, actually she needs it for her friend who works in one muslim magazine in Indonesia.Then i decide it try to help her ask some questions about these, i give some question to some of my friends who are my classmates in my colledge, They explain that there is some of cultures in india especially muslim people which is still exist even they are living in the middle hindu culture,there is nothing like strong hindu/muslim culture! all cultures in india survive simultaneously without affecting each other.This is the fact atleast for the current time. Everyone is allowed to practice whatever religion they wish to. India is open to all religious, thus, challenges are not much expected. According to islamic rules and norms, women have a very broad and liberal way to follow. it does not, in any way express women.
There are same limitations, but their limits everyone should have. As for comparison with hindu women, even they are very liberal, and exceptions all always there, so they too exist in all religions. In a marriage they do have the liberty to choose their husbands, Islam gives the permission to a woman to select a life partner. Family has an important part to play too. Marriage affair is a co-ordinative process, where the family and the girl should agree at a mutual discourse. When muslim families faced by domestic problem or conflicts generally solved by the family themselves, without any interference of the outsiders. as for the women, they have an equal right to say what ever they like to, in course of solving. just this, thatnobody should/misbehave. There many problems that can take place in the world that depends on the nature of the problem.
They have some process in wedding ceremony in India like putting henna on the bride's hands and feet. another function consists of applying turmerie paste on the bride(the boy's side may also do it). there functions do not carry a hand in fast rule to get applied. the important event is the 'nikah ceremony'. there the holy priest reads some verses and asks the bride and groom to say 'yes' if they agree to the marriage. they are asked seperately, but in presence of three witnesses. the bride and groom along with other important people sign the nikah 'papers'. thus, they are declared married after their process. after that, a reception takes place from the groom's side, where all the relatives and friends gather to bless the newly wed. About divorcing, indian muslim culture take place according to the islamic law. the couple might go the indian law, if they wish to. but islam does not except any other law in this case. there is no category of muslim women who may define 'love' in a different light. even they define 'love' their way others do. there's nothing different in their defining love.
