Salam,
Inshallah every one of us plan on getting married, I don’t know if it will be a traditional Islamic wedding or it will be an American dream wedding……
But i wanted to talk about the benefits of getting married at the masjid or (MAS GID) as the Arabs say.
Well first of all I’m not here to say that it’s wrong to get married at a hotel or nice hall, but recently i went to my cousins wedding at the ISNA center in toronto, canada and hands down the brides side threw a straight memorable halal wedding. Click on the picture to the left to see the center.
Not only because the ISNA center is huge, a multi million dollar project, but also because it can facilitate events such as Islamic weddings and other events but having a life changing event at the masjid like a wedding, imagine the blessings, more simplicity, you revive Islamic spirit between the wife and groom.. Yea Yea!
So any how’s every Islamic wedding has a nikkah (legal marriage ceremony done under the ways of the shariah law), and what better place to have it then at a masjid that’s big and clean, also it was completely separate, so automatically it was far less fitnah, again im not saying that weddings that are combined are haraam, but we are here to be on the safe side right??.
And besides that if the masjid looks nice, inside out, and the one i went to recently was beautiful, it had the whole dome, crescent, tower, it was amazing mashallah.
So i realized that while i was there i caught my prayers in jamaat, the bride and groom should both be happy they got the rewards for bringing people to the masjid and reminding them that marriage shouldn’t just be marriage, but as the quran says getting married is completing half of our deen.
The food was real good, the imam gave a short, funny talk on having an Islamic marriage, that automatically put the newly married couple in perspective on how marriage should be. And of course all of us who plan on getting married 
I believe that these type of marriages definitely are memorable they revive the sunnah a bit more and have a lot of blessings, my own sister had hers at the masjid, it was real nice, but more importantly if the masjid has these services we should support the masjid and the Islamic center, some people argue that a masjid is to pray only, not for weddings, but mashallah it makes life easier when getting married there, its the straight sunnah package…..especially for the groom who saves money!!! =P
So inshallah if you want get married at the masjid, there are far more a benefit to this life event and this is just another chill yo islam yo post! Ameen na i mean!

nice site!
Eh, the masjid looks pretty big and peaceful. =)
And, Insya Allah, I would like to get married in a masjid too because it will be so much easier to perform ablution and prayers, especially for the guests, as compared to having it in a hotel or a hall.
So, I give 10 thumbs up yo!
Bedtz

Salam sister,
just wanted to let you know mixing of men and women at any place that is avoidable is haram.
@Ayesha,
Salam, what daleel states that mixing of men and women are haram. There were no partitions in the masajid during the time of the prophet.
@KR

dear saad,
assalam alaykom,
i've been reading your blog lately, and i seriously can't quit! i mean i'm reading everything!
jazaka Alah khayran
"but as the quran says getting married is completing half of our deen."
that's not mentioned or implied to in the Quran… unless you can get a quote for me…
and yes, mixing men and women in a marriage is haram and could risk putting people into fitna by the other sexe… the proofs are simply too many.
w assalam alaykom
