As far as I know, this nikaah was invalid because of many reasons; for instance, the wrong name. Therefore it can not be seen as a valid nikaah.

The majority of the Muslim are Sunni's (I, myself, am a Sunni)

I am not sure about every detail of the differences but one of the main differences is that for the Sunni's the prophet Mohammed (may peace be upon him) is the most important one and for the Shia's that would be Ali (if I am not mistaken)

I'm a Shi'a Muslim. Sorry to say but you are mistaken. We really respect and revere Hazrat Ali but the Prophet (P.B.U.H) is still the most important one for us.

Shi'as are a minority as compared to Sunnis in India as well as the world so I doubt that QH would be showing Shi'a Muslims.

There are no such differences in the way Shi'a or Sunni's Nikah is performed. This Nikah is invalid considering both school of thoughts.

Difference lies with regard to 'Temporary marriages'. The Nikah-e-Mutah, as its called is prohibited in Sunnis but is just a controversial issue in Shi'as. Although as stated in the Quran, getting married just to get separated later at a predetermined time is prohibited.

Sorry. Please do accept my apology. I knew that Shi'as Muslim respect Hazrat Ali, perhaps I put it into the wrong words. You are absolutely right about the Nikaah 😊

I think Shia muslims are the majority in India (could be wrong).
