Question
The wrong names were written in the Nikah certificates. The name of the wakeel of the bride was omitted, and someone else's name was written. Is the Nikah valid. The Nikah was performed in the Musjid by the Imaam.
Answer
The validity of a Nikah is not reliant on what is written in the certificate. Even if all the information written in the certificate is incorrect, the Nikah which was performed by the Maulana is valid.
