Indian-origin Sikh woman from Germany embraces Islam to marry Sialkot man

In a heartwarming tale of cross-border love, Jaspreet Kaur, a Sikh woman from Germany, embraced Islam to exchange vows with a Pakistani man, Ali Arsalan. 

The confirmation of their union comes through the certificate of acceptance of Islam issued by Jamia Hanafia, Sialkot.

Hailing from Ludhiana, Jaspreet converted to Islam and adopted the name Zainab. The couple met abroad, where Ali extended an invitation for her to visit Pakistan, which ultimately led to their marriage.

The couple tied the knot during Zainab's visit to Pakistani Punjab for a sacred pilgrimage that commenced on January 16. Kaur was granted a Pakistani visa until April 15.

The administrators at Jamia Hanafia reported that over 200 non-Muslims have converted to Islam under the guidance of Sahibzada Hamid Raza and his father.
