When a friend gets married, many of us would consider giving them a red packet (angpao/ang pow) to help pay for their wedding expenses.
One group of friends though decided to plan a group present for their friend at his wedding, which has since riddled them with backlash from netizens.
In a video shared on the Inforoadblock Facebook page, the group can be seen showing off and giving their newly-wedded friend condoms, to which the groom bashfully accepted. The video showed the friends lining up and taking turns showing off the condoms before handing them over to the groom, while his new bride politely sat next to him while friend after friend passed along the condom gifts.
This incident is believed to have taken place in Kelantan.
Based on a report by Harian Metro, preacher Associate Prof Datuk Dr Mohd Izhar Ariff Mohd Kashim condemned the act as it is disrespectful in the eyes of the Prophet Muhammad SAW not only towards the ceremony but also towards the bride and her family.
“Prophet Muhammad was quite fond of giving gifts to people, especially those who are getting married to please the host. Because of that, Islam advises us to respect the bride, the bride’s family and the ceremony that is celebrated,” he said.
And netizens agree with the preacher, taking to social media to share their disappointment with the group.
“Doing stupid work. Ruining people’s celebration. If I was the groom, I would chase all of them out.”
“Just kick them out of the ceremony. Like people who were not taught manners.”
“Because of (wanting to create) stupid content, they’re willing to attend the ceremony without their brains. You are trash, brothers.”
“Pity. That’s why elderly people tell you to pick your friends wisely. If they’re not addicts, they’re sh*t like in this video. They’re even queuing up to do stupid things.”
Datuk Dr Mohd Izhar has since urged the younger generation to be more respectful in such situations.
“When attending weddings, I advise young people to be courteous, present gifts, and have fun. I’m concerned that this will become a bad habit among young people, especially since it’s extensively shared on social media and prominently showcases the bride’s face,” the preacher went on to say.
Considering condoms and other forms of birth control can help with family planning, perhaps the group could have wrapped the condoms in gift paper instead of openly showing it off in front of the other guests.
“(Use) wrapping (paper) la, it should be fine.”

Jangan beri hadiah tidak senonohKuala Lumpur: Pemberian hadiah tidak senonoh kepada pasangan pengantin seperti yang tular di media sosial baru-baru ini hukumnya haram dan berdosa kerana menjatuhkan aib suami isteri, keluarga pengantin dan tetamu yang hadir.Pendakwah, Prof Madya Datuk Dr Mohd Izhar Ariff Mohd Kashim berkata, amalan itu sepatutnya dihentikan kerana Nabi Muhammad SAW sendiri sangat memuliakan majlis perkahwinan."Nabi Muhammad cukup suka beri hadiah kepada orang, lebih-lebih lagi mereka yang melangsungkan perkahwinan untuk menggembirakan hati tuan rumah."Malah ada riwayat Rasulullah menyuruh para sahabat yang dijemput ke majlis perkahwinan yang sedang berpuasa sunat untuk berbuka puasa, sampai begitu sekali Rasulullah memuliakan pengantin dan keluarga."Disebabkan itu, Islam menyarankan kita menghormati pengantin, keluarga pengantin serta majlis yang diraikan," katanya ketika dihubungi, hari ini.Mohd Izhar berkata, selain menghadiri perkahwinan, amalan memberi hadiah untuk menggembirakan hati pengantin baru dan meraikan hari bersejarah mereka sudah menjadi satu kebiasaan."Hadiah berkenaan mestilah bersifat memuliakan perkahwinan, bukan menghina dan menjatuhkan maruah pengantin, hukumnya adalah makruh jika perkara itu tidak menjatuhkan aib mana-mana pihak."Contohnya beri hadiah tidak sepatutnya dalam bentuk tertutup, hanya pasangan pengantin saja yang tahu, hukumnya makruh."Bagaimanapun ia akan menjadi berdosa dan haram kalau perbuatan seperti itu dilakukan di khalayak ramai sehingga menjatuhkan aib suami isteri, keluarga dan majlis perkahwinan itu sendiri," katanya.Menurutnya, disebabkan itu, anak muda sekarang perlu berhati-hati kerana Rasulullah menjelaskan, Allah SWT sangat suka kepada orang yang menutup keaiban."Saya nasihatkan anak-anak muda supaya menjaga adab ketika menghadiri majlis perkahwinan, beri hadiah dan berseloroh."Saya khuatir perkara ini menjadi amalan tidak baik kepada anak muda, lebih-lebih lagi ia dipertonton secara meluas dalam media sosial yang terang-terangan memaparkan wajah pengantin," katanya.Sebelum ini, tular video berdurasi dua minit 15 saat di TikTok memaparkan situasi di majlis perkahwinan di sebuah negeri di mana rakan pengantin memberikan hadiah tidak senonoh kepada pengantin.Menerusi video itu, dapat dilihat rakan pengantin secara bergilir-gilir memberikan hadiah iaitu kondom kepada pengantin lelaki di atas pelamin ketika majlis.Perkongsian itu meraih perhatian orang ramai dan rata-rata netizen terkejut dengan tindakan rakan pengantin terbabit yang memberikan hadiah tidak sepatutnya.▶️Harian Metro
