Doctors Kashif Chaudhry and Naila Shereen wear face masks after their wedding in New Windsor, New York, U.S.
So the two young American doctors, Kashif Chaudhry and Naila Shereen, whose whirlwind courtship spun them between New York City and Cedar Rapids, Iowa, cancelled their big plans.
Two weeks ago, they persuaded the imam at a mosque in Hawthorne, New Jersey, to open up for a quick nikkah marriage contract ceremony. The couple married the following day on Saturday and celebrated with her family at her parents’ house in New Windsor, New York. After the ceremony, Shereen dropped her new husband at the airport 12 hours later.
“We said our goodbyes - we were a bit teary and sad,” he said. “I gave her a red rose.”
Shereen was back at work by Monday.
