In a video surfacing on social media — in which Pakistan pacer Shaheen Afridi was also seen standing behind the groom, details ofAqsa’s nikah contract with Naseer Khan were being read out by the marriagesolemniser.

The Nikah is a marriage contract officiated by a cleric in Muslim weddings.

During the ceremony, the Nikahkhwan (the cleric officiating the ritual) can be heard saying: “Naseer Khan, I have solemnised your nikah with Aqsa Shahid Afridi against a Haq Mehr (dower) of 131 tola silver, having a current value of Rs260,952, before these witnesses. Do you accept Aqsa Afridi — daughter of Shahid Afridi — in your nikah (as your lawfully wedded wife)?”

At this Naseer replies: “Qubool hai (I do)."
