Alisha Khan’s English Nikah Sparks Debate

News Desk 

Islamabad: Pakistani actress Rimsha Khan’s sister, Alisha Khan, has become the centre of an online discussion after videos from her wedding ceremony went viral, with social media users focusing more on the style of the nikah than the celebrations themselves.

The wedding ceremony was held during the daytime, but what caught viewers’ attention was the use of English while seeking the bride and groom’s consent instead of the traditionally heard “Qubool Hai.”

The ceremony quickly became a talking point on social media, with users expressing mixed reactions to the unconventional approach. While some questioned the decision to conduct the consent proceedings in English, others said there was nothing unusual about using a language understood by the couple.

Some social media users said they preferred the traditional style of the nikah and described the customary “Qubool Hai” as more appropriate for a Pakistani wedding. Others turned the discussion into light-hearted banter, with comments focusing on the bride’s English accent and the overall presentation of the ceremony.

The debate has once again highlighted how wedding traditions are evolving, particularly among younger Pakistanis, while traditional customs continue to hold strong emotional and cultural significance for many.

Meanwhile, Rimsha Khan largely stayed away from the spotlight during her sister’s wedding festivities. The actress did not share pictures or videos featuring herself with her husband, Khushal Khan, on social media, keeping the family celebrations relatively private.
