Re: NIKKAH QUESTION
We were forced to be separate. My wedding was in Karachi. My parents and his parents wanted us together, which is common in the US. However, it was impossible finding a maulvi to agree to it; and family members were not particularly supportive. My wedding was at the end of a long line of weddings, and by then both his father and my father were sick, so I just gave in. I was up in the bridal room.
