‘It’s never too late’: 95-year-old Mansehra man gets married again

PESHAWAR: A 95-year-old man in Mansehra city of northwestern Pakistan married again years after his first wife passed away.

According to reports, the elderly man named Zakariya has seven sons and five daughters, and over 90 grandchildren and great-grandchildren in total.

His nikkah was solemnized by local cleric Maulana Ghulam Murtaza in a ceremony which was attended by his family members and others.

Zakariya had attempted to get married for a long time, but it had been unsuccessful due to opposition from some of his kids. Waqar Tanoli, the youngest of his two sons, finally accomplished his father’s wish.

According to reports, the 95-year-old man’s bride is from the Gujarati city of Sarai Alamgir.
