Members may find answers to common questions pertaining to the Nikah Process and Marriage Rituals here. The FAQ document can also be downloaded.

To attest and verify the Nikah forms is the responsibility of the local President and Ameer of the country. As per an amendment in Rules and Regulation of Tehrik Jadid if Ameer is not available then National Secretary Rishta Nata will attest the Nikah forms. Therefore from now onward Respected Hameed Ch. Sahib will attest Nikah forms in NHQ representing National Secretary Rishta Nata if Respected Ameer Sahib is not available.
