I went to starbucks Verdun with my friends for coffee and a very interesting topic came through.

FAH: Bu Fareed how much will you give your wife (mahar)?
Bu Fareed: shako?
FAH: I am just asking.
Bu Fareed: I don’t know maybe 500 KD.
FAH: Bes?
Bu Fareed: Yes why should I give her more?
FAH: I don’t know, but I think that Kuwaiti girls need more money. 500 KD is not enough! It doesn’t even cover the cost of her wedding dress.
Bu Fareed: Okay, so how much should I give her?
Bu Anwar: you should atleast give her 10,000 KD!
Bu Fareed: no way 10,000 ib 3ainik. I’d rather not getting married then.
Bu Anwar: Well this is Kuwait and girls are demanding you must titmasha ma3a il 3asur wil ritim il saree3 wil kilimat il mitwathi3a il 3amalt-ha.
Bu Fareed: No seriously, 10,000 is a lot. You are talking about 30,000 dollars!
Bu Anwar : yah I know. In order to get married in Kuwait you must at least have 60,000 KD because you must buy your wife shabka, dibla, and they cost wayed! Don’t forget shahar il 3asal. You must take her to London, Paris, and all expensive countries. What’s wrong with you yabaah? Hay inta imsodan ma tifham! oo ba3dain laish bakheel?
Bu Fareed: It’s not about bakheel ma bakheel. Its about why all that! Girls in other countries don’t demand a lot! They are cheaper.
Bu Anwar: Saa7, Kuwaiti girls must change their mentality and they must know that we are not machines; we can’t just give them what they want. They must understand that there is a limit!
Bu Fareed: 3aleek noor il zawaj bilq8 sar shibh mista7eel.

At the end of the day, they agreed that getting married is not easy. Now what do you think?
