That being said it is good to have a reasonable Mehr. Especially if you are marrying a young man as most young men are in a building stage where they can't afford to pay huge sums of money.

You talk down on women who ask for a trip to Makkah. The truth is, any man with money thinks such a woman is quality and gives her what she wants.
I’m not talking down, I want them to stop changing the narrative so that other women get shamed for asking for money as their mehr (God given right btw)

Never said to ask for a million dollars but theres a lot of men who shame women for asking for their rightful money.

No one shames women for asking for meher - it's the normal practice. Only people who ask for crazy amounts, maybe. You're the one here talking down on other people's choices.
 
People should stop watching what others do or want for themselves. If anyone shames you, ask them why they are shaming you instead of telling others to want what you want.

Doing Hajj today takes at least about 10-11K bruh. Even more. But I agree that a women shouldn't be shamed if she asks for money.

Nah a cat is outrageous, but the Makkah request is fine. It’s like a 6-8k trip

The assumption is that my husband and I will go to Hajj regardless, (InshaAllah) as it is a requirement. But damn for my mehr I want money for a nice new wardrobe Is that a crime
 
Everyone has the right to ask for what they want for mehr.

Maybe her dad wasn’t in her life or was very poor and could never take her. Hajj/umrah is actually quite expensive to go, in the thousands

Materialistic women should be a red flag for any man trying to get married. OP seems like a miserable woman

Umrah/Hajj isn’t cheap. Costs anywhere from 1.5-8k, depending on where you’re coming in from and the time you visit. Some of us don’t come from wealthy families and never had the chance to go. The best mehr is what both parties can agree on and be happy with.
