Many Muslims are expressing their strong disapproval of a wedding video featuring popular Islamic cleric Sheikh Foreign and his niqobite wife, which has gained significant attention on TikTok.
The lavish ceremony took place over the weekend and quickly became a trending topic on the platform. Guests showered the couple with bundles of naira notes, adding to the opulence of the event.
Many observers have dubbed this wedding the second-best in Nigeria for 2024, following the highly publicized union of Davido and Chioma. However, the extravagant display has sparked controversy, with some community members voicing their concerns about the perceived excessiveness in the context of Islamic values.
In addition to the lavish celebration, a portion of the wedding videos circulating online features the groom, Sheikh Foreign, participating in a viral Moro challenge with his friends, capturing viewers’ attention.
Shortly after, the bride, a niqobite, and her friends ignited social media with their own rendition of the Moro dance challenge, showcasing their moves in a stylish and memorable way. This lively display added an exciting twist to the already buzzworthy wedding, further fueling conversations across platforms.
Reactions continue to pour in regarding the wedding video of Sheikh Foreign and his niqobite wife, with many users expressing mixed feelings about the celebration and its implications.
User Zee-l-khayr remarked, “Subhanallah, these are those that ridicule niqob for us. May Almighty Allah grant you shiffa.” Meanwhile, ms.dhunnie humorously noted, “Eleha dey dance Moro keh 😂😂,” highlighting the dance challenge’s lighthearted nature.
Others shared more critical perspectives. jumoketaiwo45 commented, “Happiness is free, but it would have been better if you didn’t dance this with ijab, though that’s just my little thinking.” Similarly, HIS SWEET GURL expressed disappointment, saying, “All this werey we dey preach about Islam, you see truth you no talk now. Toor, Allah will guide us through. Peace out ooo.”
Modupe Barakat succinctly stated, “Na the hijab be my problem,” while rebel_foodie voiced concerns over the normalization of such actions under the guise of religion, stating, “Like we are now so bold that doing offensive under the umbrella of religion seems normal to us.”
These varied responses reflect the ongoing debate within the community about tradition, celebration, and the boundaries of cultural expression.
