Information (not for points)
Urdu has many words taken directly from Arabic. See this article about Muslim marriages in India
>>when the barat with the bridegroom arrives at the bride's house and her vakil( who usually an elderly relative), in the presence of two witnesses, obtains the consent of the bridegroom to the contracting of the marriage. He then informs the parents or guardians of both the parties. The qazi then reads khutbah after obtaining the acceptance by the bride through the vakil and the witnesses and the ceremony is over. <<
