ISLAMIC MARRIAGE

Nikaah Service (Islamic Marriage):

Nikaah is a great blessing and a form of worship. In Sharia law, Nikah is viewed as a contract by both parties agree to live as husband and wife in accordance with the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.).


Hendon Mosque & Islamic Centre offer the service of conducting a Nikaah (Islamic Marriage) and the English Marriage Registry (Civil Marriage) to the Muslim Community in London.

The Nikaah can be conducted in the Mosque or a preferred venue. If you wish to have the Nikaah conducted at an external venue, you have to ensure the civil marriage is completed in the council prior to the Nikaah date. 

If you wish to have the Civil Marriage conducted along with the Nikaah in our Masjid, please give your notice of intent in your local council and inform them you wish to have the civil marriage conducted via Hendon Mosque. 

Please note it is necessary for the couple to have their civil marriage complete before we can conduct the Nikaah.
