Four copies of nikahnama are prepared.
There is no weight in the arguments that the entries in the `nikahnama'’ have been interpolated. ‘‘Nikahnama’’ is a public document which is registered under the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 and as such presumption of truth is attached to it. According to law, four copies of the `nikahnama'’ are prepared, out of which one is kept by Nikah Registrar, second is sent to the concerned Municipal Corporation, Municipal Committee or Union Council, third copy is supplied to the bride and the fourth one is given to the bridegroom. The very object behind it is so that each party may verify the entries in the Nikahnama according to the terms of marriage settled between them. Mst. Nabeela Shaheen v. Zia Wazeer Bhatti (P L D 2015 Lahore 88) by Khan, J. Muhammad Farrukh Irfan
