Viral Video: A video came on social media that involved all eyes in the house rolling with laughter but was also peculiarly headlining a very new feature in the tradition of getting people married. The viral video captured a Qazi Sahab conducting a marriage, or Nikah, and belting out a very eccentric yet hilarious prayer, particularly for those planning to get into their second marriage.
Qazi Sahab’s Unusual Prayer
At one point in the video, Qazi Sahab can be heard praying, “May Allah arrange for the marriage of all bachelors. for the old and elderly who are considering a second wife, may Allah bless them with a second wife too. and let it be done so that the first wife does not get the wind of it.” The unexpected twist of humor is, indeed, such that it gets viewers laughing aloud, thereby converting what should otherwise have been a gray moment into a comedy cascading event.
