Default Re: Sisters, would you sign a prenuptial agreement?

Your wife could become a mean of your sustinence and economic downfall as well (just like a natural disaster, theft, accident, etc.).


And I believe with full conviction that Allah swt alone gives and He alone takes it back.


Then why the .... fuzzle?
"white stuff?" You do realize that the nikkah contract is very similar to a prenup. People just don't use it that way anymore because, in my opinion, they don't know what they can do with it and people don't know their fiqh.

And yes, only Allah gives and takes but we are still responsible for the means. As the proverb goes, trust in Allah, but tie your camel.
