'Coz it's long overdue. A Noor-e-Nikah guide

Hw 2 u manage 2 rite so nice awesum

And SET 6!

OH DEAR! Is this the end? THIS IS THE SECOND LAST SET.

And wanna know something else? So far whatever you've read, was covered in the show

for 5 minutes.

Yes. Only 5minutes and I had THAT much to write? What about the remaining 15 minutes?

Go on, knock yourself out.

So SET NUMBER SIX.

A resplendent looking Zoya and an even more elegant looking Dilshad walk on one side of the

garden.

Dilshad Masha Allah. This by far is the best I have seen you in.

The top part is a rich, deep, dark blue velvety piece, with beautiful golden sequins,

and the skirt is red with that more golden handwork.

Does it ring a bell?

Yes!!! You guessed right! Her outfit is a cross of Asad (his vest) and Zoya (her bridal wear)!

Simply resplendent! Oh so so beautiful!

And across them, on the other side of the garden, brother-sister walking, brother listening to sister talking. And brother has on a very red topi (songkok)

on his head. Yikes.

But oh well, since it's your wedding day. And Zoya is in red.

And I love RED...

AND THEN...

Rom rom tera naam pukare...

Zoya holding on to her dupatta, looks towards her right a little. And Asad to his left,

sneaking a look at Zoya.

Najma realises this and quickly holds her dupatta up to cover Asad's sight from Zoya.

Asad smiles a little, looking down and DIMPLES! *hayyee*

Ek hue...din rain hamarein...

Zoya still looking over at Asad is caught by Dilshad, who fakes anger *arms akimbo*,

Zoya smiles, and shakes her head, blushig really hard.

Asad still smiling, and Najma laughs pulling down her dupatta, hand finger warns her

Bhaijaan.

Dilshad smiles. Taking Zoya's arm and continues walking.

Both Asad-Najma and Dilshad-Zoya walk...opposite direction.

Asad with arm around Najma, walks away.

Hum seh hum hein chin gaye...

Najma covers Asad's ayes, and Dilshad does the honours for Zoya

Jabse dekhe nain tihare

SAJDA...

Dilshad slowly removes her hand from Zoya, and Najma from Asad.

Zoya opens eyes.

The glorious TAJ MAHAL.

Asad opens his.

The magnificent TAJ MAHAL.

*cue QH's score..a mash of old and new score*

Yes friends, if you haven't realise, we're at SET 7.

*SCROLL DOWN*

SET 7.

Zoya's puts her hand on her heart. Awe-struck. Tears in eyes. Dilshad holding her.

Asad, completely speechless, breath taken.

Camera angle, as if Asad and Zoya, side by side.

*score turns nostalgic and rhythmic-beautiful!*

Dilshad pecks Zoya's forehead. And then touches Zoya's forehead with her own.

Zoya glances back to the TAJ, needing to see more.

Both Dulha Dulhan seated at their respective places across one another,

separate by a thin veil.

The rest follows suit.

Dilshad looks at both dulha dulhan and cheekily says, Ab tum dono ek dusre ko dekh sakte ho.

Through that thin veil Asad looks at Zoya, Zoya lifts her eyes. *cue mitwa*

Zoya smiles. Asad looks on.

Zoya smiles a little more. Asad looks on.

Zoya shies and looks down.

Oh my goodness, the entire scene was shot oh so spectacularly! So, so beautiful!!

I simply can not interrupt the scene with my unworthy comments.

I love looking at the beautiful Taj. Imagine to have your Nikah here!

Oh my! *hyperventilating*

SET 1 (an interruption)

What??????

An alert looking Tannu on the phone talking to. Talking to. TALKING TO.

Talking to- WAIT FOR IT.

Tannu talking to a waiter at SET 7!

Tannu asks him if he knows what to do, he answers in the affirmative and went on to say that-

DULHA DULHAN POHONCH CHUKE.

And your cheezein should reach them soon. You keep calm and get off my back. Eh. Hehe.

I'll only relax when my gift Hamare Jammy ka hosh nahi uda dega.

*cue Billo Rani tune..NGEOW!*

Okay, okay finish interruption. I promise!

SET 7. And only SET 7.

Waiter bhai carries a bouquet of flowers and places it on the table with the other gifts.

Oh look, there's a note that readsTO JAMMY (my honeybunny).

Hahaha. Okay okay. It only says To Jammy. But you had a good laugh right?

No?

Er, nevermind.

Moving on.

Asad and Zoya still looking at each other. Through that wretched veil.

Enters who but a very dejected looking Siddiqui Sahab.

Wait. WHAT!!!! Siddiqui Sahab in Agra? That too at Asad Zoya's Nikah?

How long does it take to get to Agra from Bhopal? Don't bother answering. I googled it.

It take 10 hours by car. So I'm guessing Siddiqui Sahab has a chopper that carried him to

Agra in a short span of time.

No wonder Tannu married him.

So a forlorn looking Siddiqui Sahab is here to look for his darling princess Humeira

(with picture in hand), but ends up finding Zoya, his other daughter.

That too at her wedding. In her wedding dress. GIFTED BY HIM.

Zoya as if on cue herself, opens her music box and both Abbu and beti reminiscing,

feeling nostalgic and a little melancholy. *you know the tune*

Asad realises Zoya's state.

Dilshad and Najma look on, sad.

Siddiqui Sahab, looking that more sad-

Shukar hai Khuda ka, ke hum yahan hai.

Hum itne khush naseeb toh nahin,

ki beti ki sar par haath rakh kar usse bida (vida) karsake.

Par itne badnaseeb bhi nahin hai,

ke usse dulhan ke jhode mein dekh bhi na sakein.

Tsk tsk. Aww my poor Siddiqui Sahab. Please don't be sad...

Have I ever told you how much I hate advertisement precap? Yeah, I do! SO MUCH.

(the above is my ad)

Through the veil Asad looks at Zoya and gave her a reassuring nod, as if conveying,

I'm here for you always, ALWAYS. And please be strong! I know you are!

And Zoya, as if getting said message, nods and wipes her tears.

Suddenly waiter bhai gets a 'lil cosy (and nosy!) with Siddiqui Sahab,

asking him first if he can bring the senior man a chair and when he gets a no as a reply,

he moves to a different question.

Aap ladke walo ke taraf se ho?

Nahin.

Hum ladki walon ki taraf se hai.

Par Bhagwan ne bhi kya jodi banayi hai... Waiter bhai, what are you playing at?!!

Waise aap ladki ke kaun hoti ho? *nosy aren't ya mister?*

Bas yeh samajhlo, humara dulhan se bahot purana rishta hai. Understand, waiter bhai?

You better understand! *total Anil Kapoor style*

Just then Dilshad says she'll get the Maulvi Sahab.

Ooohhh, it's coming near!! The moment we've all been waiting for!!!

With Zoya smiling and wiping off the last bit of tear from her eyes,

Najma looks on all smiling, and Asad too, just a tad little.

*GO ON SCROLL DOWN*

Oh and who is our Qazi Sahab, if not the same one from when Akram abducted Zoya to force Nikah on her (where dashing Asad really stylishly kicked some ass).

And he was also there to test Zoya on her Islamic knowledge during the 10-day condition Dilshad made, to get her son married.

He was there at the wedding function too (the infamous non-suhagraat of Asad and Tannu)

And he too was the one who got Najma and Imran married and he would have gotten

Asad and Zoya married then too, but ZoYaan had to happen,

so now LADIES, AND LADIES-HE'S BACK!!

And this time around, we won't let him leave until AFTER he gets them married.

I really like this Qazi Sahab. At least he remains. Unlike Nuzzhat, Ayaan, Tannu, Asad,

and also Wajids (note the plural).

BISMILLAH FARMAYE.

Auzubillah himinash shaiton nirrojim (I seek protection from Allah from the devil shaitan)

Bismillah hirrahman nirrahim (In the name of Allah, most gracious, most merciful)

Shuru Allah ke naam se jo nihayat meherban aur rahem wala hai.

Janab, Asad Ahmed Khan, wald Rashid Ahmed Khan, aapka nikah, Zoya...Farooqi Bint-

*all look up*

Zoya, colour smile drops.

Siddiqui Sahab, colour draining off.

Asad- oh if look could can kill

Najma- sweetheart can you please adjust your mang ka tikka, it really is distracting!

*did you guys realise?*

*cue Abbu music*

Siddiqui

Zoya

Siddiqui

Zoya

Siddiqui

*flashes back* No this does not count as a setting. Jus coz.

Baby Zoya

Siddiqui.

Baby Zoya and young Siddiqui

Siddiqui

Zoya

Siddiqui- GHAFFUR AHMED SIDDIQUI!

*echoes GHAFFUR AHMED SIDDIQUI, GHAFFUR AHMED SIDDIQUI,

GHAFFUR AHMED SIDDIQUI, GHAFFUR AHMED SIDDIQUI*

*ABBU TUNE, THIS TIME A MAN'S HUMMING*

Zoya looks. Siddiqui looks. Zoya looks, Siddiqui looks.

Zoya looks, shock. Siddiqui looks, sad. And then he nods.

Yes, Even I was so taken by the sheer brilliance of this scene that I honest to

God was jumping and cringing at the same time, the truth is out?

THE TRUTH IS OUT? WOAHHH.

And then.

DILSHAD AHMED KHAN.

Say whattt???????

That was a dream??? Siddiqui Sahab!!! Why you no say you HER ABBU?

Why why WHY!!!

So yeah, Siddiqui Sahab imagines himself claiming his rights as Zoya's Abbu

in front of the whole of Taj (and the people around) to witness.

Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become.

So Dilshad Ammi, you were saying?

*suddenly everybody wants Zoya as their daughter..hehe*

DILSHAD AHMED KHAN. How many times to say it?

While Zoya looks on at her, all touched and thankful and loved,

Siddiqui Sahab cries at his almost bad luck, remembering Razia's words

from no too long ago-

AGAR AAP NE ZOYA KO YEH BATAYA KE AAP HI USKI AABU HAI,

PHIR MAIN BHI USSE YEH BATA DOONGI KE AAPNE, KYA KIYA THA.

AUR PHIR ZOYA KI MOHABBAT NAFRAT MEIN KITNI DHER MEIN BADALTI HAI,

YEH BAAT AAP BHI ACHI TARAH SOCH SAKTI HAI.

Siddiqui Sahab-

Humein maaf kar dena beta,

humara saaya tumhari sar par hoti rahe bhi,

tum ek yateem ho.

Humein maaf kar dena beta.

And then.

AND THEN.

DRUM ROLL PLEASE.

FOR THE MOST AWAITED MOMENT IS NOW HERE.

-...Zoya Farooqi Bint Dilshad Ahmed Khan se, bil iwaz ek lakh, ek rupiah,

sikka raijul waqt, teh kiya gaya hai, kya yeh nikah aapko Qubool Hai?

All expectant face, smile, Asad and Zoya looking at each other,

Asad so much emotion is emoted, yet none at all,

Zoya smiles a shy smile, and then-

Qubool Hai *echoes Qubool hai.. QUBOOL HAI...Qubool Hai...Qubool Hai...*

All smile, Dilshad breathing a slight sigh of relief.

Masha Allah, kya aapko yeh nikah Qubool Hai?

-Qubool Hai

Kya aapko yeh nikah Qubool hai?

-Qubool Hai

*cue earlier rhythmic tune*

Then music lowers a little...

Zoya Farooqi, Bint Dilshad Ahmed Khan, aapka nikah,

Asad Ahmed Khan wald Rashid Ahmed Khan se, ek lakh ek rupiah

sikkah raijul waqt meher muqarar kiya gaya.

Kya aapko yeh nikah Qubool Hai?

*Silence- just the sound of wind*

Zoya looks up, at Asad. And remembers the time when she asked

Asad the name of the star he so excitedly showed her-ZOYA!

And she remembers the time when he kneels down in front of her palms open,

with mini Taj Mahal-

Qubool Hai.

*echoes the same, okay fine, I'll echo it for you

Qubool Hai...Qubool Hai...Qubool Hai... Qubool Hai*

Dilshad opensly smile now. Najma super excitedly giggling away.

Masha Allah. Kya aapko yeh nikah Qubool Hai?

-Qubool Hai

Kya aapko yeh nikah Qubool Hai?

-Qubool Hai. Siddiqui looks on, eyes watering. Asad smiles a big one.

Masha Allah, nikah muqammal hua, aaj se aap dono, ek dusre ke shareeq-e-hayat hai.

Ameen!

*cue original QH tune with the Qubool Hai term sung repeatedly-AMAZING score! Please whoever who has it upload the mp3 version!!!*

And everybody, meet the newly weds- *veil comes down*

Mr and Mrs Asad Ahmed Khan!!!

Yeh aapke shauhar, aur yeh aapke biwi hai

Siddiqui looks on, this time with a smile. And quietly leaves.

*SCROLL S'MORE*

Every gets up, Dilshad puts a 'lil black of her eyes, to Asad and Zoya.

Allah se yahin dua karoongi, ke tumhara Nikah ka noor,

tumhare zindagi ko yuhi roshan karta rahe. Hamesha hamesha ke liye.

Then Najma playfully jokes that now her dearest Bhaijaan can look at her

dearest Bhabhi for as long as he wants.

Tamatar!

(Really, Najma you too please take a look at yourself, that MANG KA TIKKA!!!)

Before she gets anymore from her Bhaijaan (AND ME!),

Najma runs off, with the rest of the guests.

Also can be seen our darling Maulvi Sahab giving GOODBYE adab to some of the guests.

All smile!

We rejoice!!!!

Woohoo!!

Dilshad pulls Asad's nose playfully *what's with these purani Khan ladies and their leg-pullling, eh I mean nose-pulling?hehe*

Then it is just them two. *mitwa...ishq pe zor nahin...*

Asad oh so romantically takes Zoya's hands into his and. And. AND! And, one last time,

just wait for it-

Gham-e-ulfat hai hum hadse ghuzar gaye

*Zoya looks up into Asad's eyes*

*Mitwa, ishq pe zor nahi*

Ke unke ishq mein, hum deewane bangaye

*Zoya looks down*

Shiddat se sirf ek hi guzarish ki thi Rab se,

Aur woh hamare naam, sara jahan kare

Asad takes Zoya's hand and kisses it, his gaze never leaving Zoya's, but Zoya relents,

looking down shyly.

Iska mere paas koi jawab nahin hai Mr Khan. Aap jeet gaye. Hamesha ke liye.

Asad closes his eyes briefly and shakes his head, looking at her adoringly.

*Qubool Hai new wali background score, yep, the three times one!*

And then they share their first hug, as man and wife. Shauhar and Begam.

As Shareeq-e-hayat.

And then just like it is the most natural thing to do on Earth,

Asad kisses, ever so lightly,

Zoya's right eyebrow, as she continues to be in his arms, to be his for eternity.

And then continues from earlier, my favourite song, for one reason mainly,

if you can guess what.

Fantastic panoramic view of the Magnificent Taj, the beautiful couple.

What breath taking view, and the whipped cream and oreo on top-

Sajda...

Teri kali akhiyon se jind meri jageh..

Dhadkan se tez dhoru, sapno se aage

Zoya, standing in front of the Taj Mahal in all its splendor.

Ab jaan lut jaye

and comes Asad (minus RED topi, thank you God) looking at his Jaan with the kali akhen,

in all her magnificence

Yeh jahan chut jaye sang pyaar rahen,

Main rahoon na rahoon...

Sajda..

Asad caressing Zoya's red cheek with his fingers as if she's something so fragile,

and Zoya, not able to stand the slight beautiful torture, turns, shying away from him.

Sajda, tera sajda...

Asad, with Zoya's hand clasp in his, gets down on his knees, and places his eyes

on her hands (figuratively speaking) and slowly looks up kissing her hands.

Zoya smiles, shy shy. And when Asad looks up, into her eyes,

she looks down, unable to stand his penetrating gaze on her.

Ranjhna...naino ki teer chalgaye..

Asad twirls Zoya, dupatta now nicely pinned on her shoulder. (don't ask just enjoy)

Sajna...saason se dil silgaye...

Asad and Zoya in a super romantic pose,

Zoya leans on him his one arm at her front holding her shoulder,

and she holding on to him, and yes, that kiss on the side of her forehead near her jhoomer,

it's becoming a thing now. Zoya revels, eyes close.

Palkon mein chupa lo *oh tera sajda karu*

Seene mein sama loon *oh din rain karu*

Asad, looks at Zoya, in what look like them lying on the floor, Zoya facing the sky,

and Asad, well, Asad facing her.

Palkon mein chupa loon

Seene mein sama loon

Tere ang ang rang mera bole

Ab jaan lut jaye

Yeh jahan chut jaye sang

Pyaar rahe

Main rahoon na rahoon.

Zoya turns from leaning on Asad, now faces him, hands holding each other.

Zoya brings her hand and rest gently on Asad's cheek slowly letting it fall on his shoulder,

and Asad, not wanting to be left behind, ups his game. He holds her face in both his hands.

And inches closer.

Aur paas.

Aur paas.

Aur paas.

Aur BAS! Zoya pushes his hands, turning shyly away, before she runs off.

Sajda...Tera sajda..

Asad pulls Zoya in to him, and in the dancing jodi style

*Raj and his Tanni partner* brings her down.

And the following scene was captured oh so beautifully, in both daylight and at sunset.

The sun, in all its glory WITNESSING, at the background, Asad's showcase of love to Zoya.

And in broad daylight, the magnificent Taj stood tall and proud also witnessing the same.

Sunset, Asad circling Zoya, who has her arms wide open with broad smile on her face,

and Asad, Asad showers her with petals of flowers *hopefully fragrant*

And then the same in daylight, Asad circling Zoya, with petals of flowers.

And back to sunset.

Daylight- Asad carries Zoya in his arms, bridal style, this time rightfully,

as she is now his blushing bride.

Sunset- Zoya, happily in Asad's arms and Asad inches closer.

Their forehead meets. Their noses touches.

SAJDA...

Screen freezes.

That was so beautifully portrayed!! Job, well done Team QH!!

And so they're married!

**************

My humble apology to all of you for the delay.

Hope it is worthy of at least something.

Thanks for reading!

FaRz⭐️

p/s This goes out to all you who wanted me to post anyway.

Love you.

Mwah.

Where is noor-e-Nikah guide, aren't you done yet with the guide? All I see is about dynamic trio. Tannu came to know the tempo is going to Agra but how did Tannu and Gaffy knew exact location of Nikah venue ...I couldn't figure this out ...wondering if you have any explanation that I failed to register.

Thanks for the mention...
love reading your post... I feel as if I saw the epi once again..

The longest most elaborate and perfect guide I have read

it really was awesome. You penned down everything leaving no stone unturned. How you managed a long post like that is beyond me but it really was brilliant

thank you for the mention Einstein

love u lots

Farz you're an amazing writer! 😳 I loved reading this, thank you so much for sharing! :)

A wonderful guide to the episode. I was relieving it all over again. I'm just happy that Asad and Zoya are finally married! 😃 I wonder if we will get a SR from AsYa sometime this week.
