Answer:

Mehr

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Sister the mehr should be an amount which can be easily given by the grooms party. You should not accept a small sum and make a mockery of this law which has been instituted to protect the women. It should be substantial at the same time affordable by the groom.

The mehr should normally be taken upfront as afterwards the groom might not be willing to give easily.

In the nikah namah you can dictate the conditions you desire in a reasonable way. Even the divorce condition you can dictate according to your desire, whether you want to retain the authority or give it to your husband to be. Whatever conditions you feel comfortable you should mention clearly in the nikah namah so that there is no confusion or mis-understanding at a later date.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is only ones. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.
