Are wedding receptions permissible?

Question

Are wedding receptions permissible?

Answer

A wedding reception is not permissible. It has no basis in Islam. Furthermore, a wedding reception in our community is a function of waste, riya, takabbur, violation of purdah and is also accompanied by other haraam activities such as photography, music, clowning and cooning, etc. According to the Fuqaha it is not permissible for women to attend even walimahs.
