" let me be honest, I knew everything when it came to my wedding and I had a dream about it. I used to say to myself, the woman I'm going to marry should wear this specific ring. My wedding is going to be a certain way. I want to do this kind of photoshoot. I knew all the details about my wedding and God helped me we have a lot of things in common.
You see how the events were many, the first was the Nikkah then the civil wedding then came the second engagement. The ring was $50,000.
Her family is still a Christian family and her mother is a woman who is very deeply rooted in her faith. So, she said it's okay that the marriage was already officiated and that you are a Muslim but as a parent as her way of giving her daughter out she wanted to do it as a sign of blessing the marriage and asked to bring a pastor so that she can bless the marriage as well. Which was not a problem so I accepted.
So in Nigeria when the pastor came....it was just a blessing. We had taken off our rings because they needed to be blessed. In reality it's just a way of giving your respect to God but then it was not an official Christian wedding it was just a way to show and give blessings.
We did civil wedding. It was a little hard convincing her to become a Muslim, on the other hand I was receiving lessons from religious leaders and people who are keen about the religion. So there's a way they were teaching me with regards to how to convince her. Go with her slowly, teach her this and that. Tell her this and that. So I took sometime, she later on understood.
Our official wedding is the Nikkah that was the day we officially got married."

Using spouse as content is wrong and always backfires..this is too much info for the haters, keep it private and let her just be doing the pepper dem photo posts and face the beautiful news ahead...
The huge age difference btw them, marriage barely a year after they met and now conversion to Islam, everything happened really fast. Wishing them all the best.
ReplyDeleteAge difference for real?
DeleteAnd Stella, there's nothing bad in all he said. We all knew he's a Muslim so it's either she accepts to practice the religion or she remains a Christian, it's nothing new.
She will practice it by fire by force. Tanzanians are like snakes most of them. I just hope the guy doesn't become the Tiger bfr 5yrs rounds off
DeleteI've noticed you always speak derogatorily concerning their age difference. It's their choice, they didn't marry under pressure. If you feel it's too much, they don't feel same way. Besides, I'm married to a man 15years my senior and that's the best decision I've ever made in my life. Let them breath!! Haba
DeleteJuma grow up.
DeleteDon't cry when he gets a second wife as per Muslim. You left Christ because of a man. I don't have anything against someone who genuinely converts but doing it for a man is a no no. I blame her mother for putting pressure on her to marry before a certain age. I hope it lasts. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteThe girl had to do her mother's bidding. On a normal, this little girl won't even be thinking about marriage. Her mother must have prompted her.
DeletePressure. She looks innocent of the whole thing
DeleteWell, since her mother approved of her marrying a Muslim, since she also approved of her converting to Islam, I also hope Iyabo has told her to research the Muslim doctrine on marriage.
DeleteThis young man who is constantly in the spotlight where he meets different types of women will one day want to add one more or two.
Look at Ahmed Musa. I thought that his Christian wife will be his last. Hasn't he added two more wives to his harem?
This little girl looks so pure and innocent. Too young to marry a man well beyond her years and experience.
I wish her well and lots of patience because she will need it
Hmmm the way the guy was hammering on the fact that their main wedding was The Nikkah not the white wedding. That the white wedding was just a blessing, he be like who get intention to dribble Iyabo Ojo and daughter introduce second wife later because his religion permits it.

Tinubu, didn't pressure Remi to convert. They both maintained their religion. Fashola too sef. The way he is making reference as to which is the real wedding to him may God see priscy through in a faraway land.
You no go mind your business and face your lonely self
DeleteI tell you
DeleteIf he marries a second wife, they will hide it, only their haters will bring it to social media.
You can’t compare Tinubu to a Tanzanian Muslim. That’s like comparing a Yoruba Muslim to a northern Muslim. There are differences
DeleteShebi na star make we dey watch. The guy will be controlling a narcissist. The guy is just looking for a country audience; he will find another one for Zambia and add to the list. The sister-in-law looks like a Thatcher.
DeleteThe guy is unfolding
DeleteI wish you all the best in your union 🙏
ReplyDeleteBest wishes to Mr and Mrs Kambala
ReplyDeleteThis one na staunch Muslim o
ReplyDeleteI wish them well
ReplyDeleteHe said that it was a little bit hard to convince her to be a Muslim.
ReplyDeleteDoes it means that they didn't discuss that during the courtship??
I wish them a happy home.
Lol, they were sleeping with each other instead of discussing their future. It will be short-lived.
DeleteAll the best .
ReplyDeleteRed flag 🚩
ReplyDeleteRed sea, he sounds controlling
DeleteMay God see them through. From all my research about various religion and practices, I have come to have a feeling that we all worship one God but in different ways. Though I am still studying their patterns and to get concrete clarity before I conclude finally. If I was born in India maybe I would have been practicing Hinduism by default. If my parents were Muslims I am sure I would have been a die hard Muslim by now. Those killing in the name of religion.. let me not talk about that now.
ReplyDeleteThe ones that are worshipping another god are those who worship the river, trees, animal's etc
I really don't trust dis Juma Jux..
ReplyDeleteI wish them all the best...May their union be everlasting and fruitful
I wish them all the best
ReplyDeleteThis conversion and many other issues should have been sorted before the wedding na. I wish them the best in their marriage.
ReplyDeleteI pray it works out fine for them.
ReplyDeleteSince this is a young woman who is sensitive in her condition, and her mother also read the blogs, I will keep my thoughts to myself and simply wish them a long and happy marriage that gets better and better with each passing day.
ReplyDeleteI don't like being forced into anything at all. 😔😔😔
ReplyDeleteAll the best to them.
ReplyDeleteTake ya marriage outta d innanet. It's too early and still very young for buhahaha
ReplyDeleteWhy make her convert to your religion? I wish them well.
ReplyDeleteMake una just wish them well. Simple
ReplyDeleteWishing them all the best...
ReplyDeleteI can’t change my religion because of marriage, if it packs up nko, I mean I’m not wishing them that but what if? She’ll run back to her former? Ridiculous
ReplyDeleteThis particular info shouldn't be for the public na abi he wants to score cheap goal.
ReplyDeleteI wish you the best beautiful young bride. Marriage is not a do or die affair. If becoming a Muslim begins to kill you dear you know what to do. Thank God your mum is still very much alive and I trust her wella
