One of the functions of the imam is to be a seer or a seer. In order to ask a girl's father from her father, the imam and the headman are often sent together with other important people of the village. The imam explains the issue according to a certain formula, and in return, the boy is rewarded with gifts by his home. Before the implementation of the civil law, the main function in marriage was in the hands of imams. But today they officially have nothing to do with this business. However, as we will explain later, they are the ones who secretly marry in villages where there is a "kumalık". If the imam and the people of the village get along well, the imam's work in the village continues for a few years. Otherwise, it cannot last more than a year. The main qualities that people look for in an imam are: having a beautiful voice, being able to recite the adhan beautifully, being wise, worthy of respect, and a good man. They ridicule and criticize imams who are not like this, regardless of their sacred nature.
