Once implemented, this proposal will make it compulsory for all nikahnamas issued in Islamabad to include a section where the couple must pledge their belief in the finality of Prophethood. - Religious Commitment:
This requirement underscores the religious commitments associated with the marriage contract, further embedding Islamic principles within the legal framework.
