everybody was waiting for, the solemnization, was conducted by Ustaz Bilal
Shittu, who declared the lovebirds man and wife, having fulfilled the rites of

It
was indeed a great entrance for the new couple as they expressed their joy and
hope of betting things. Claded in flowing Arabian outfit -Jelbaab with hijab
and a pair of shoes, Nusdhik, as the bride is fondly called by friends, said,
"I am short of words", when AL-FAHM asked her how she's feeling
getting married, adding, "I have many reasons to be happy, not just
because I am getting married, but because Allah has spared my life to witness
this Day, Alhamdulillah - I am grateful to God."
The
excited groom told AL-FAHM how the journey began. According to him, it started
about six months ago. There wasn't any kind of physical meeting but there was
conversation through phone calls, social medi; whatsApps and Viber, etc.
