The range of dowry weight is between 2.22 troy ounces and 11.1 troy ounces depending on where the husbands permanent residence, gold for city, silver for rural. I would like to know what the maximum is to two decimal places please. RoddyYoung 16:20, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
This is just out of curiosity and it is not intended to cause offence or make fun of anyone (if you think it might offend you then stop reading). Are alternative sexual practices like Urolagnia etc allowed between a married couple? Just wondering and again I hope I have not offended anyone. -- Hydraton31 15:32, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
The article is a little unclear. Are Baha'i women allowed to marry non-Baha'i men? The article states that Baha'i can intermarry but does not make it clear if this is valid for both sexes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.204.191.184 ( talk) 20:52, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
Yes. All Baha'is are allowed to marry the mate of their choosing. The only stipulation is the consent of both sets of living parents must be given for the marriage. This applies to non-Bahai parents also.
Note: Parents do not have the right to select the mate of their children. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.190.43.230 ( talk) 01:26, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
Since Bahai Faith is rooted in Islam, is Polygamy permissible? If yes, does this only apply to Polygyny or also Polyandry? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.117.122.86 ( talk) 11:43, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
The first paragraph reference two is misleading: This reference is not to the Aqdas text, but to a note written by the Research Department at the Bahai World Centre. "The House of Justice indicates that such materials, though prepared at its direction, represent the views of that Department.." (22 October 1996, to Gavin Reed). I have not found any authentic source for the statement that " marriage and the family as the foundation of the structure of human society."
The paragraph states "marriage is union of a man and a woman" without a source. I have not found any authentic source for this, and it could easily be understood as "one man and one woman" -- which would have the unintended consequence of denying the validity of Baha'u'llah's polygamous marriages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sen McGlinn ( talk • contribs) 00:42, 7 December 2019 (UTC)
