At the ceremony, Qazi Syeda Saiyadain Hameed invoked passages from the Quran as explicated by Maulana Abul Kalam Azad in his Tarjuman ul Quran – the outcome of his 27-year-long rigorous study of the holy scripture.

The nikah concluded with a call to celebrate the union of the bride and groom as equals in marital, legal, and spiritual partnership, by quoting a passage from the Quranic Surah.

The nikah is performed with three repetitions of ‘Ijab’ (offer) and ‘Qabool’ (acceptance) which is administered by a Qazi to the bride and groom. (IANS)
