Khadija

Chapter 11

Khadija's POV.

My phone was ringing I did not check the id because I wanted to just answer it and go back to sleep when I heard my mums voice shouting then I greeted her and told her that we had to sleep in a hotel because by the time they finished the party it was already late so I did not want to disturb anyone so I told them that we should book into a hotel and spend the night there she said ok and told me to go back to sleep I said my salam and went back to sleep. Khadija wake up I woke up and saw my cousins and friends shouting and smiling I asked what happened and they told me that I should stand up and get ready so we could go home I said ok and told my friends to go home and get dressed and meet me at home they said ok and left while I went home I went straight to my room and told my cousins, Aisha and Yusra to bath after bathing they should call me that I wanted to see my parents and they said ok and I went to my parents room as I entered I greeted them they advised me about marriage and told me to please have patients, I was crying my heart out after which they prayed for me then I left to go back to my room when I got there I saw them still bathing I layed down and after sometime my sister woke me up to go and bath I stood up and went to bath after bathing I went straight to my parents room and told them that I wanted to use their room for my make-up they agreed and told me that they would send my sister to bring my wedding dress I said ok and waited for my sister to bring the clothes when she brought it I wore my wedding dress and waited for my make-up artist to come and do my make-up.

While the make-up artist was doing her work my cousins were busy singing and shouting forgetting it wasn't my room I didn't answer them nor did I caution them because I was enjoying the moment. Then after the makeup, my cousins told me to come outside so we could go for my Nikkah as I was going outside with my cousins and sister one of my Aunt stopped me and said she liked my dress and I look beautiful I thanked her and then she also gave me her blessings so did all the aunts in the house.

We then went to the mosque where we sat down and my cousins were busy making up stories on how my married life will look like and how my husband will love me incredibly we were laughing and playing until my dad called saying the Imam is on his way we waited for the Mallam to come, when he came he said his salam before entering into the women section of the mosque then he sat down and started talking about married life, how the partners are to behave with each other, the does and don't another stuffs it was interesting though after which he asked:

Khadija daughter of Saeed son of Usman son of Abdullah do you accept your husband with the fixed amount of dowry given to your family I said yes three times, he gave me some papers to sign which I did he congratulated me me and left. My family member congratulated me, hugged me and some pecked my checks we then left the mosque when I got home I saw a lot of people more than how I left the house I had to smile at everyone when they left in the evening I had to use ice on my face because it was aching me after which I prayed then I played Mufti Menk reciting Quran and I slept off. The next day in the morning I had to wake up early because I will be going to Zaria for my other wedding rituals which will be by flight as it is some of my cousins are already there and my sister is there too so I will just go with my mum and the other relatives can follow later with my dad who has to get the house key before going. I took my bath, wore my pajamas with an abaya and then I went to eat and to check if my mum is ready because our flight is by 6:30 AM we have to get ready so we won't miss our flight and I can sleep before the reception because I'm tired, she was ready and she had eaten already so I went to get our belongings and the driver when she came out I had to meet my dad before leaving after which we left to Zarai.

Jallals POV.

As I was sleeping when I heard the Adhan, I woke from sleep to pray after praying I was busy resting on the bed when my friends entered and told me to go and get ready for my Nikkah at home I said ok and went home, I was so restless when I was on my way to go home I was also scared. When I got home my mom told me that she got my cloth ready for me in my room when I went to my room I picked my towel and left to go and bath after bathing I wore my cloth and left to meet my dad when I saw my dad he told me to come and eat with him I said ok and started eating with my dad when I was done my dad told me to go and get the cars ready for us to leave I said ok and left when everything was ready I told my dad and we left to go to the mosque with my dad and I alone while my mum and sisters are together in another car going to the female side of the mosque, while I was with my dad he told me that I should treat her well and either stuffs that I was not ready to do because of her I lost the person I loved so much when we reached the mosque I was waiting for the Imam to come.

My dad told me that the Imam would be here any minute I was lost in my imagination that I did not notice when the Imam started talking and also asked me if I accepted her as my that was when my dad tapped me and told me to give my answer I said yes trice, then I signed the certificate, the Imam congratulated me then left that was when my family members started congratulating me and all then we all went home. I was really tired that when I went back home I followed the back yard so that I won't see anyone on my way to my room and thank God I didn't see anyone it was a relief when I went to my room I entered the bathroom to bath after which I offered my prayer and I stayed on my praying mat for a while for my adhkar after which I went to bed.
