Romance in the Arab world.
MAKKAH, 15 January 2008 — A young man was surprised to know that his father is now going to marry the girl he had rejected, the daily Okaz reported yesterday. The problem started when the man, accompanied by his father, went to his neighbour’s house with a marriage proposal. However, after meeting the girl — according to the Shariah, a suitor is allowed to see a girl without her Hijab before proposing marriage — the young man changed his mind, leaving his father in an embarrassing situation. That’s when the father of the suitor decided to step in — he went ahead and proposed to the girl instead of his son. Much to his surprise, the father of the would-be bride readily agreed and a marriage date has now been fixed for next month. In this case, what’s good for the father may not be good for the son. Never mind. It’s all in the family.
