What is the term for the formal offer made during the Nikah ceremony, generally followed by the corresponding acceptance?

Explanation

– Ijab refers to the formal offer made during the Nikah ceremony, typically extended by or on behalf of one party, generally followed by the corresponding formal acceptance (Qabul) from the other party.
– This clear exchange of offer and acceptance forms an essential component of the valid marriage contract, ensuring mutual, explicit agreement between both parties involved.
– For exams, note that this exchange must occur within the same sitting or gathering, without significant, unrelated interruption between the offer and its acceptance.
