The pre-marriage course is to teach people their responsibilities within a marriage. This is just a minor technicality issue as you are already planning ongetting married & you will be 21 soon. Insya'Allah, they will acced to your request. I will pray for both of you to have a smooth path to tieing that knot. Act responsibly and Allah will have mercy on us.

Thank you for the answer .may god bless u.Amin.
I'm curious, where did it state you must be 21 before you can attend the course?
If the boys of singapore are entrusted with a fire arm at 18 years old, this is strange indeed.
Since u are below 20 u need to go to PPIS to sit for counselling gal..

My nephew has just got married and because the girl is not yet 21 yrs old then they and their parents have to attend the counselling at PPIS.
I guess the ruling is due to the increae no of young couples getting a divorce...
apkim will still take u in for registration purposes..but u cant sit for the session until u reach 21yrs old... so u can eirther reg now or wait till next yr...
0votes 14/07/2009 11:24:20 PM by sweetheart rookiei think the marriage guidance course should be improved further...
somehow i felt that it does teaches us about the basic things...
but since from their statistic that many younger generation divorcing is at peak... they would know by now what are the problems that couple faced.
And from there they should try to include such topics on how to tackle the problems as such in our marriage...
I attended it and one of the speaker, went asking each one of us gals... "how much is your dowry?"
To me, those on a higher scale would be proud to mention the amount... but what about on a lower scale... sikit banyak, some would feel inferior...
To me such topics, is not relevant somehow...
And for them to make such ruling of 21 yrs... below 21yrs to go for counselling... I find it crap... but who am i to say much... I'm just a small fry.
i didnt know about this new ruling.. when did it start? During my time as long as u are above 16 you can get go to these courses and get married, but the ustaz will interview just in case it is a forced marriage..
Btw, since in the same topic, may i also ask.. does one need to still attend this pre-marriage course if you have been married before i.e. divorcee but getting married to a bachelor/bachelorette..
or only the bachelor/bachelorette need to attend the course?
from what i know, if u have been married before, u are not required to attend e pre-marriage course. but im not sure whether e bachelor/bachelorette need to go for course.
