Yahya related to me from Malik that Yahya ibn Said said, "I have heard that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, held a wedding feast in which there was neither meat nor bread".
The Prophet Muhammad's example teaches us that we should be grateful for what we have and not feel the need to overspend on lavish feasts just because it is expected of us by society. We can still show our love and appreciation for those around us without having to go overboard with spending money on food items that are unnecessary or extravagant. Instead, we should focus on creating meaningful experiences with those around us through conversation, laughter, and shared memories rather than material possessions such as food items at a wedding feast.
