If the marriage contract was done without any mention of the Mahr (dowry), the marriage contract is valid and the wife is entitled to a Mahr like that of her peers.

Deciding the amount of the Mahr (dowry) is to be left to the woman and her guardian. There is no set limit for the amount of the Mahr. If marriage occurs without a Mahr , it is still valid, but the woman is still entitled to a Mahr like that of a woman of similar standing.
