The dowry system in India refers to the durable goods, cash, and real or movable property that the bride's family gives to the groom, his parents and his relatives as a condition of the marriage. Dowry is referred to dahez in Hindi and as jahez in Urdu. A court judgement clarifies the legal definition of dowry as Article 3 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 specifies that the penalty for giving or taking dowry does not apply to presents that are given at the time of a marriage to the bride or groom is when no demand for them has been made.

  • ダヘーズ(ヒンディー語: दहेज़、ウルドゥー語: دہیز‎)とは、インドでみられる結婚に関わる持参金制度のことである。語源はアラビア語のジャヒーズ(جهيز)。英語でダウリー(dowry)とも呼ばれる。 持参金の制度自体は、世界中で広く見られる習慣であり、金銭以外の価値のある物品(貴金属類、電化製品、不動産など)を含める地域もある。インドでは、結婚の際に新婦側家族が新郎側家族と話し合い、持参金、もしくは物品(貴金属類、宝石、家電製品など)の新郎側に贈ることである。贈られた物は新郎新婦の財産となる。 ヒンドゥー教徒に限定なく、インドのイスラム教徒にも広がっている。1961年に、が成立したが、今も違法に行われている。 (ja)
