Shah Jahani Nikahnama (English)
This nikahnama has been recreated from a letter written by an officer in the court of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in 15th century India. A rich variety of floral motifs and colours give a distinct Mughal touch to this royalty-inspired nikahnama.
This nikahnama is printed on high-quality canvas, tightened to a handmade wooden scroll holder and placed in a handmade velvet and satin box. On your big day, feel like a prince or princess as you take out the nikahnama from the box and unroll it from the scrollholder.
Please fill the given form to give the details to be written on the nikahnama.
Alternatively, you can send us the details via email on contact@baradariarts.com or via WhatsApp on +91-9810560252, after you’ve placed the order.
A soft copy of the document will be emailed for proofing twice, after which it will be printed and dispatched. Any change after the nikahnama has been printed will be done at an additional cost of Rs 1000.
Please place your order at least two weeks before the date of marriage.
Two additional copies (on simple A4 sheets) of the nikahnama will be provided for legal/documentary/visa purpose.
Nikahnama, the Islamic marriage contract, is a couple’s most life-changing piece of paper. A document that inks their mutual commitment in accordance with the principles commanded in the Holy Quran.
Should it thus not be made with thought, care and love?
At Baradari, we bring to you an opportunity to make your nikahnama a piece of art.
For a touch of Islamic heritage, we’ve used Mughal, Turkish and Persian decorative elements. Each design can be personalised with the names of the couple and witnesses, date and place of marriage, and mehr amount.
To make you feel even more special on your big day, we can attach the nikahnama to a handmade wooden scroll holder and place it in a jewellery box handmade of velvet and satin.
Our nikahnamas are, thus, a blend of art and law. Frame them for your bedroom. Or treasure them as a piece of heritage that you can pass on to your future generations.
