Years ago, Muhammad Zakaria had expressed his wish for a second marriage to his children. However, at that time, his children were reluctant and opposed the idea. Nonetheless, the desire for companionship persisted in Muhammad Zakaria's heart.
Finally, his long-awaited wish was fulfilled when his youngest son, understanding his father's yearning for companionship, took the initiative to find a suitable bride for him. The chosen bride, like Muhammad Zakaria, is also a widow.
The joyous occasion of the elderly couple's wedding took place at a hall in Mansehra. As he signed the marriage certificate, the radiant smile on his face was a testament to the newfound happiness in his life.
