Abdur Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera – Stop Competing at Weddings

Wedding season is coming.

Just don't do something because it's going to

look good and it's going to look as

as good as somebody else because somebody else

did that.

That's not what we're doing it for.

If you're doing something because you want to

match up to somebody else, there's no satisfaction

in that.

It's just a competition.

And why the competition?

You're not going to win a prize afterwards

and any praise you're going to get is

going to be short-lived.

Nobody's going to remember your wedding for the

rest of their life.

You know, nobody's going to remember your wedding

for the rest of their life unless you

do something really weird.

Then people will remember it.

But you don't want to be remembered for

things like this.

So just because somebody else did a wedding

of this nature and they had this type

of thing and they had this type of

food or whatever, doesn't mean you have to

do it.

If that's something you liked and you felt

people would enjoy that and you've got the

ability to cater for that, then go ahead

and do it.

That's different.

Don't do things just because somebody else.
