Brilio.net - To marry a woman, of course the man must prepare a dowry. A dowry is a gift in the form of property or material values as part of the marriage process. Dowry is often seen as a form of responsibility and goodwill towards the woman.

The value of the dowry may vary, depending on local traditions and customs. Apart from having symbolic value, dowry can actually also function as a form of security or economic protection for the woman . That's why the more established the man is, the dowry is usually at a fantastic figure.

Like this bride and groom, in a video they can be seen carrying out the dowry handover procession. However, many people gawked when they saw the process. This moment was uploaded by the TikTok account @vierunicha123marlina.

In the video it appears that there are many people in the wedding tent. The tent is decorated with dominant white cloth. A bride and groom were seen among the crowd. Both of them were busy counting money.

But here's the unique thing, instead of counting manually, this process must be assisted by a counting machine like the ones in banks. Of course this is intended to be easier and more efficient.

To the right of the bride and groom you can see a bunch of red. It was all dowry money from the man. From the video alone it can be seen that there are many. This unusual action at the wedding moment also made many people amazed, and at the same time their eyes lit up because there was quite a lot of money in front of the bride and groom.

This story happened in Pangkalan Banteng District, West Kotawaringin Regency, Central Kalimantan Province. One of the guests who took this video could only say "Masyaallah" because of the amount of money. Apart from that, he also offered prayers for the bride and groom.

"Masyaallah tabarakallah, congratulations to Uncle Nedi," he wrote in the caption.

The bride's expression looked normal looking at the money in front of her. It is not known the exact amount of the dowry because there is no explanation in the video. This also makes many netizens confused because they see that much cash.

"How come people get so much money from? Work? Why do I always get this much money, sometimes there isn't any," wrote a confused netizen in the comments column.

A study written by Muhammad Shuhufi in 2015 stated that dowry is indeed one of the pillars of marriage in Islam. However, as time goes by, there are many traditional dowry practices that are not in accordance with Islamic law and therefore tend to be burdensome.

In the hadith of the Prophet it is also stated that "Indeed, among the greatest blessings among women is the one who is easiest and cheapest in determining her marriage dowry." However, this can also be subject to multiple interpretations because it is cheap for different people depending on their economic level. So it doesn't matter if a man is capable and doesn't mind giving a high dowry to his wife.

The video went viral and attracted the attention of netizens. Many responded jokingly and there were also those who responded seriously. In essence, this incident has drawn pros and cons from netizens.

"Be careful, after getting married, pay the KUR installments," said the account @ittaitoll

"I, who was given a dowry of a set of prayer tools and 1 million in cash, can only listen," wrote the account @risma_amalia866

"For those who ask why you use a machine, it looks like the dowry is hundreds of millions, use a machine so that the money is right and there's no fake money because if the dowry money has to be right," commented the account @moaldinamian84

"If I'm honest, I'm afraid of a big dowry, afraid of reckoning and it will be a problem in the future, I married first with a dowry of 500 thousand," said the account @aaram06.
