In the Nubian Language, a Bride is called ARUS*
Marraige among the Nubians,until recently was arrangement between families of the bride and that of the groom-with negociations carried out by intermediary elders.Mahr is the bride price paid by the groom at the Nikkah solemnised before a Kadhi and Wakils.The Bride's side provides house-hold items known as "Sela" escorted by maids and elderly relatives a day before the Nikkhah.Marriages are happy Occasions in which Duluka is danced and much food is served to guests. |
