God says
O you who have attained to faith! Do not deprive yourself of good things of life which God has made lawful to you, but commit no excess: for God loves not those who transgress the bounds of what is right. Thus partake of the lawful good things which God grants you as sustenance, and be conscious of God, in whom you believe Q.5:87
Prophet said
“The worst feast is the feast of marriage where the rich are invited and the poor are left out…” -- H: Bukhari and Muslim. N: Abu Hurairah.
“Whoever does not attend to the invitation (of the married feast), disobeys God and His Apostle.” -- H:Bukhari and Muslim. N: Abu Hurairah.
The Messenger of God prohibited from eating the food offered by two persons competing with each other for show (out of pride)! -- Abu Daud. N: Akramah from Ibn Abbas.
That the marriage should be made public is supported by the emphasis laid on giving marriage feats, and more so, on attending it. However, making a show of one’s spending is strictly prohibited. It is the responsibility of the affluent who have set the prohibited trend to also reverse it.
