Significance of Rukhsati
In South Asian Muslim weddings, it often takes place after the nikah or other wedding celebrations, but the timing varies by family, region, and wedding schedule.
How Used In Wedding
Rukhsati involves the bride saying goodbye to her parents and family, often with tears, blessings, and prayers. The ceremony closely mirrors the vidaai found in Hindu weddings, though customs vary by family and region.
