Any future contact initiated between members after initiating
contact through Kamran A. Beg Professional
Muslim Marriage Bureau Matrimonials is at the discretion of those two members and is
the honourable responsibility of the two parties concerned.
However, the two parties are expected to respect the 3-Dialogue
Rule, which is discussed below.
All dialogues will be coordinated and monitored by our consultants
who will monitor how your dialogue is progressing, are available
to guide you should you need to consult them and who will advise
you accordingly during the dialogue process. Our consultants
will act as points of reference and will give you excellent guidance
in their capacity as dialogue mentors.
However, it is recommended on the basis of extensive global
research conducted by Kamran A. Beg Events that the two
parties in question conform to the spirit and essence of the
3-Dialogue Rule, which has been respectfully developed by Kamran
A. Beg Events and provides a dialogue
guidance framework for
members of Kamran
A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage Bureau Matrimonials as it does an offline
dialogue guidance framework for subscribers of Kamran
A. Beg Professional Muslim Online Matrimonials or a
post-event dialogue guidance framework for attendees of
Kamran A. Beg Professional Muslim Singles
Evening Events. Crucially,
the 3-Dialogue Rule is predicated on the definitive tenets of
balance and moderation integral to the Islamic faith.
The 3-Dialogue Rule is discussed in extensive
detail in Kamran A. Beg's
book, The 3-Dialogue Rule: One Hundred Muslim Marriages in One
Thousand
Days, which was published in 2006 by Kamran A. Beg Events. For

Islamically, it is seminal to the integrity
of any matrimonial dialogue that both parties know sooner rather
than later
whether they will be proceeding to marriage, a decision that
cannot
be undertaken until the parent(s) or guardian(s) of the male
and
female parties in question have become integrated into the
dialogue process. Furthermore, a dialogue is only formally
recognised
as a dialogue when the parent(s) or guardian(s) of the male
and female parties in question have become integrated into
the dialogue
process.
Before direct contact between the parent(s) or guardian(s)
of the two parties is initiated the male and female parties
in question
should endeavour to undertake no more than 3
dialogues, within
the purview of a 2-week time scale, to establish whether
there is enough common overlap and compatibility between them
to warrant progressing their dialogue to the parent/guardian
level.
The 3-Dialogue Rule, which is tempered with balance and moderation, would operate as follows and has been followed
by a very significant proportion of the couples that have proceeded
to marriage courtesy of Kamran A. Beg Events.
1. The male and female members in question should endeavour to
engage initially in one ‘exploratory’ telephone
conversation, effectively the first dialogue, and then reflect
on how they view progress effected during that dialogue for the
next few days before they decide whether they wish to proceed
to a second dialogue. If one or both parties feel
they do not wish to proceed further they should inform Kamran
A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage Bureau Matrimonials who will
inform the other or both parties accordingly or alternatively
the two parties could inform each other directly though the former
option is always more advisable.
2. Assuming the two parties wish to proceed to
the second dialogue they could arrange to meet in a public place
though Kamran A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage Bureau Matrimonials
would respectfully advise that the female party be accompanied
by a chaperone. The two parties should then reflect on
how they view progress effected during that meeting for
the next few days before they decide whether they wish to proceed
to a third dialogue. If one or both parties feel
they do not wish to proceed further they should inform Kamran
A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage Bureau Matrimonials who will
inform the other or both parties accordingly or alternatively
the two parties could inform each other directly though the former
option is always more advisable.
3. Assuming the two parties wish to proceed
to the third dialogue they could either engage in a further
telephone conversation or arrange to meet in a public place for
a second time though Kamran A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage
Bureau Matrimonials would respectfully advise that the female
party be accompanied by a chaperone should the latter option
be preferred. The two parties should then reflect on
how they view progress effected during that dialogue – the
third dialogue - for the next few days before they decide whether
they wish to progress their dialogue to the parent/guardian level. If
one or both parties feel they do not wish to proceed further
they should inform Kamran A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage
Bureau Matrimonials who will inform the other or both parties
accordingly or alternatively the two parties could inform each
other directly though the former option is always more advisable.
Our research demonstrates that if the two parties
have not agreed, at the very latest by the third dialogue, that
there is enough mileage and compatibility between them for their
parent(s)/guardian(s) to become involved in the dialogue process
there is a 95% probability that the parent(s)/guardian(s) will
not be factored in at all in terms of any ensuing dialogue between
the male and female parties in question, effectively meaning
that marriage is very highly likely not to occur.
In sum, the 3-Dialogue Rule entreaties both the
male and female members party to dialogue, after having initiated
contact through Kamran A. Beg Professional Muslim Marriage Bureau
Matrimonials, to decide by no later than the third dialogue whether
they wish to progress their dialogue to the parent/guardian level
or whether they wish to bring honourable closure to the dialogue
process itself.
The 3-Dialogue Rule ensures that the integrity
of dialogue remains Islamically-tenable as it is allied
to exploring the possibility of whether the other party could
be a prospective counterpart. The parent(s)/guardian(s) of both
members should in any event have been kept informed by the members
in question that they (the members) had been in dialogue, thereby
making the dialogues halal. The 3-Dialogue
Rule affords
dignity and protection to both the female and male members
in dialogue without compromising their integrity, particularly
that of the female party, in terms of the honourable social context
driving the dialogue, which is to explore the question of potential
marriage between the two parties in question.
Assuming the two parties have agreed, at the
very latest by the third dialogue, that there is enough mileage
and compatibility between them for their parent(s)/guardian(s)
to become directly involved in the dialogue process, the next
step is for the male's parent(s)/guardian(s) to initiate
contact with the female's parent(s)/guardian(s), subject to the
female member’s consent. Note, however, this could equally
occur after the first dialogue or second dialogue though three
dialogues tend to be the norm based on the marriages arising
from Kamran A. Beg Events. Importantly, the parent(s)/guardian(s)
of both members should in any event have been kept informed by
the members in question that they (the members) had been in dialogue,
thereby making the dialogues halal.
It is only when both families have engaged in discussion,
met and advisably mutually exchanged visits can a more informed
decision be taken by both the male and female members in question
and their respective families as to whether the degree of compatibility
between the male and female members in question is sufficient
to make marriage a tenable scenario for both parties, in which
case, Islamically, the male's parent(s)/guardian(s) would then
request the female's parent(s)/guardian(s) for her (the female
member’s) hand in marriage.
Research carried out by Kamran A. Beg Events shows
that the family values, mores and norms held by the two families
in question, that is the male's family and the female's family, can
exercise a very significant impact in terms of how comfortable
the male and female members in question and their parent(s)/guardian(s)
feel that marriage between the two members is indeed a tenable
outcome. The 3-Dialogue Rule effectively allows this outcome,
that is whether the male and female in
question will be proceeding to marriage, to be determined sooner rather than later, notably
without compromising the integrity – emotional, social,
community or otherwise - of either the female or male member
party to the dialogue and their respective families. In
particular, it safeguards the female member and her family. It also safeguards the
male member and female member in question against dating,
which is Islamically-prohibited and non-permissible! |
