Furthermore, he shared that Shadab's mother came to their house and insisted on them accepting the proposal. She said, "Even if someone is a beggar or a king, he has to search for his daughter's match and get her married. It's Allah's will, and I won't leave your house until you say yes." Saqlain replied that they would both do Istikhara, seeking guidance from Allah through prayers. It was then decided that the marriage would take place.

Mushtaq also revealed that the Nikah ceremony took place on the day of a blackout in Pakistan.

Mushtaq opened up about how he accepted Shadab as his son-in-law after observing two important habits of his. The first habit was when Shadab's mother informed him that he had expressed his wish for his parents to find a suitable partner for him. The second habit was Shadab's dedication to prayer, as he prayed five times a day.  that he did not notice anything wrong with him during the time they spent together and appreciated the fact that Shadab would invite everyone to pray by knocking on their doors. These qualities were crucial in his decision to accept Shadab as his son-in-law.
