Acting as a Flower Girl in a Christian Wedding
Dear scholars, As-Salamu `alaykum. Can we attend a Christian marriage ceremony? My husband, three children and I are Muslims. My family, however, are all Christians and they are very respectful towards Islam. My cousin is getting married and she has asked if my daughter could be a flower girl at her wedding. The traditional role of the flower girl is to carry a basket full of petals and to toss them as she walks down the aisle just before the bride. We would like to know if we can accept her invitation. Jazakum Allah khayran.
