Is giving laccha & tying poth mandatory for Nikah in Islam?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
Is it permissible in Islam to give laccha (gold ornament with black stone in it) worth 20 gm as Mahar in Nikah? Is it must and should to tie poth (made of black pearls) during nikah on bride’s neck? Kindly reply as per Shariah.

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Yes, it is alright to give laccha of 20 gram gold as mahr, but it is not necessary to tie poth on bride’s neck during nikah ceremony, you can also make her wear the same after later.

Allah knows Best!
