MAS KAWEN NAIK??
Kadar mas kahwin negeri Selangor dipinda kepada minima RM300 bermula Januari 2010 berbanding kadar asal iaitu hanya RM80 setelah diperkenankan Duli Yang Maha Mulia Sultan Selangor.
"Tidak mungkin kita menilai seorang isteri dengan nilai RM80 dan kadar RM300 ini adalah munasabah pada zaman ini bagi semua peringkat golongan masyarakat," katanya.
Menurutnya, kadar ditetapkan ini adalah jumlah minima dan menggalakkan mana-mana pasangan pengantin yang ingin membayar lebih.
Khusrin berkata, pindaan ini masih belum menerima sebarang bantahan daripada orang ramai dan menyifatkan tindakan seumpama itu adalah tidak wajar dilakukan kerana niat memperisterikan seorang wanita harus dinilai daripada aspek positif bagi meninggikan martabat kaum itu sebagaimana dituntut Islam.
"Jika pasangan pengantin mampu memberikan hantaran sehingga berjumlah ribuan ringgit, mengapa mas kahwin berjumlah RM300 menjadi suatu beban sedangkan jumlah hantaran itu sendiri boleh 'ditukarkan' kepada mas kahwin dan pasti jumlahnya lebih besar dan bernilai," katanya kepada media selepas merasmikan majlis pelancaran Kad Perakuan Nikah Pintar (NCRKad) di Bangunan Sultan Idris Shah (BSIS), Shah Alam, kelmarin. - Hadri Yaziz

MB: Kelantan won’t increase dowry
2009/12/12
KOTA BARU: Kelantan Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat said the move to hike the mas kahwin may result in many women becoming “anak dara tua” (old maids).
He said the state had no plans to follow the Selangor government’s move as it could create problems for men.
The state government will maintain its “not fixed” rate for the mas kahwin instead.
The Selangor government announced on Thursday that Muslim women in the state would receive a minimum of RM300 in mas kahwin from Jan 1.
The Selangor Islamic Religious Department (Jais) said the move was aimed at giving a better impression and elevating the status of women in the state.
Nik Aziz, who is also Pas spiritual adviser, said men must give dowry to the women they loved based on their earning capability.

Nik Aziz, who is also Pas spiritual adviser, said men must give dowry to the women they loved based on their earning capability.
“Mas kahwin is only to ‘tackle’ the women’s heart before they tie the knot. The amount need not necessary be a lot, enough to proceed (with the marriage),” he said.
Mas kawin is a religious obligation after the solemnisation ceremony.
In Kuala Terengganu, deputy state Religious and Information Committee chairman Muhammad Ramli Nuh said the state government agreed to the setting of a minimum mas kahwin sum. It would, however, depend on the state religious department.
At present, the state has no fixed sum for a dowry, although most men would shell out RM5,000 as the dowry and cash gift.
The dowry was a matter between the two parties.
“While I agree with the move by the Selangor religious council, I would like to add that the dowry is not the worth of a woman. We can never put a price on a woman’s worth.
“People should also learn to differentiate between the dowry and cash gift, with the former compulsory in Islam.”
The state religious authorities in Johor, Pahang, Perlis, Penang, Sabah and Negri Sembilan said that there were no plans to increase the mas kahwin in the respective states.
In Alor Star, Kedah mufti Datuk Syeikh Muhamad Baderuddin Ahmad said there were no plans to change the present “open” mas kahwin system, which had no fixed

The rates are between RM80 and RM100 for single women and divorcees in the state.
Syeikh Muhamad Baderuddin refused to comment on the Selangor Islamic Religious Department’s move to raise the dowry from RM40 to RM300 from Jan 1.
~~Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat tidak bersetuju kadar mas kahwin dinaikkan kerana ialah boleh mengundang kepada ramai gadis menjadi anak dara tua.
"Kita tidak bercadang menaikkan kadar mas kahwin di Kelantan dan mahu mengekalkan peraturan sedia ada," katanya kepada pemberita selepas menyampaikan kuliah Jumaat di Kota Bharu hari ini ketika diminta mengulas mengenai keputusan kerajaan Selangor menaikkan kadar mas kahwin di negeri itu daripada RM80 kepada RM300 berkuatkuasa 1 Jan tahun depan.
Nik Abdul Aziz berkata beliau sudah lama mengamalkan langkah tidak mengambil berat mengenai mas kahwin termasuk yang membabitkan perkahwinan anak-anaknya sendiri.
"Sayapun mengenakan tidak lebih RM1,000 bagi mas kahwin (yang termasuk hantaran) setiap anak saya sejak dulu," katanya.
Menurutnya langkah mengenakan mas kahwin dan hantaran yang terlalu tinggi lebih bersifat riak dan menunjuk-nunjuk.
Enakmen Keluarga Islam Negeri Kelantan tidak menetapkan jumlah tertentu berhubung kadar mas kahwin bagi pasangan yang ingin berumah tangga di negeri itu. BERNAMA
