The groom was very generous on how much he was willing to pay the girl’s family traditional bride price. He said, because he loves his wife very much Her parents did not request a fixed price and left it up to him to pay whatever amount he could afford. The young Chinese man wanted to give 188,000 Ethiopian Birr which is equivalent to approx.US $3,644 but his friend said 150,000 Ethiopian Birr was reasonable: equivalent to US$ 2,600 or 18, 800RMB (Yuan). These are old videos from their Chinese channel ( Douyin) on how they met through a middle man in Ethiopia and got married. The Ethiopian girl is doing pretty well in China. She lives in a nice city with her husband despite their language barrier.
The poor father was motivated by money,so he sold his daughter for money before seeing his religion and customs. It's not unusual to see this kind of thing happening in Ethiopia since they are very poor families desperate for a better life for themselves. The girl was educated and very beautiful but the father instead of saying convert and learn to be Muslim to make sure of HALAL marriage, he just says respect her religion and pay me whatever you can afford. That Chinese man looked decent and sure he would accept to convert Muslim had her father introduced the Muslim religion to him. Chinese culture is very respectful and loving. Chinese men are normally very family orientated and really helpful around children and the house, not like selfish African men. I am sure her religion will be respected by her Chinese husband and if she wishes to bring her kids up the traditional Muslim way, she would have no problem as Chinese culture is all about harmony, peace and respect for one another. I wish them all happiness, health and long lasting marriage ❤
Normally i know from my Muslim families and friends, when men are in side room, they never never sit with men together. Especially they are not married. So why now all men women sit together??? For camera or its when it is for for other country person???? Just curious😊
In this twenty first century it it’s very difficult to pick and choose what and how anyone survives in this world today and this is a hundred percent better than putting them on a boat with the expectation for them to land in an industrial and free from war country.
Mail order brides,there's a market for this,call it passport bro, when you live in countries to developed some woman want rich man or a certain lifestyle, so they come to Africa to look for a traditional bride
@@haniida1827 normalement ça doit se passer comme ça un homme non Musulman qui marie une femme musulmane doit se convertir en Islam mais beaucoup de personnes ne respectent pas ça malheureusement… en Islam on Ne doit pas manger du porc ni boire de l’alcool…
He will not convert. Although, he said his family have agreed to respect her religious practises. As for eating pork, it is a staple in China. He will never stop eating it. She doesn't have to if she wishes to continue practising her religion.
How will you raise your children? A woman should take on the culture of her husband not the other way round….Muslims don’t usually give their daughters to non Muslims
@@mehriban9437 May Allah guide her, her husband, and her family. China is a nation with 26 million Muslims, surely there is at least 1 Chinese Muslim that would have married her so that she doesn't have to compromise her faith.
He hasn't and he will not. In my country, Muslim men and women marry Christians. Neither is forced to convert. They simply respect each other's religions.
@@jessiegopal7286 Gopal are you Chinese? If that’s the case then we can talk. Secondly it’s permissible for a Muslim MAN to marry a Muslim, Christian or a Jew. However it is not permissible for Muslim MAN or WOMAN to marry anyone outside of these two religions. So if this man is Buddhist, Taoist, Confucianist or Atheist etc. it’s NOT considered a marriage no matter how many money, chickens and goats get exchanged. It’s in the Quran, it’s a command from Allah it has nothing to do with country.
@@Amatullah78 Islamic scholars from different countries and cultures have different interpretations of the Qur'an. Modernist scholars in many Muslim countries prefer to integrate the Qur'an with the realities of modern societies, offering interpretations that are relevant to contemporary issues, such as democracy, human rights, gender equality, etc. Finally the grammar of ancient Arabic is more complex and some ancient Arabic words are no longer in common use or have undergone semantic changes in today's Arabic. It seems rather silly for you to paste these rules in English.
