The question

What is the ruling regarding a suitor's refusal to put his fiancée's name on the wedding invitation card? Is it permissible for the husband to enter the women's hall to cut the cake and take pictures with his wife in the presence of his family and her family, who are fully covered? Is there a fear of Allah Almighty's wrath if the girl cancels the marriage due to the suitor's commitment?

The answer

The young man mentioned is to be thanked for his zeal and for avoiding sins and intrusive customs, such as the groom entering among women. He is right in refraining from photography due to the difference of opinion regarding its ruling and the possibility of non-mahram men seeing the pictures. Nevertheless, the young man should be gentle, as some of these matters do not reach the extent of being forbidden. He can agree to them to bring joy to his wife, such as her entering to cut the cake, provided that the women adhere to the lawful hijab, and writing her name on the wedding invitation card. The sister should appreciate and preserve a religious young man.
