In Shia School of Muslim Law the minimum amount of Mehar is
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
The Shia law fixes no minimum amount of mahr, so any amount agreed between the parties will do. Under Hanafi law the minimum is ten dirhams, and under Maliki law three dirhams.
The figure of five hundred dirhams is the Shia ceiling on proper dower (mahr-e-misl), which is the dower paid when none is specified. It is not a minimum.
