Groom sitting next to the bride in the ladies section of the hall
Question
Can the groom go in the hall full of ladies after his nikah where no other males were allowed? Can he sit on the stage with his bride in front of all the ladies?
Answer
How can this ever be permissible. Isn't it embarrassing to even ask such a question and isn't it a reflection of being in total darkness.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
