People collected together and witnessed a marriage. Then when women were deprived of their legitimate rights, things started to get on record. The British period in Lahore led to registration of nikahs. Lavish displays were not for any record. The nikah namas evolved in Lahore from hand drawn documents to printed ones. Designed by various artists in Lahore. Baba Miran Baksh and his son Muhammed Hayat Naqash also used to draw these forms with traditional naqashi and were sold for around Two rupees at that time. A full fledged nikah forms business was there in Lahore with various designs for them.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_10278\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10278\" style=\"width: 807px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Farooq-Ishaq-designer-nikah-namas-Lahore.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10278\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Farooq-Ishaq-designer-nikah-namas-Lahore.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"807\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Farooq-Ishaq-designer-nikah-namas-Lahore.jpg 807w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Farooq-Ishaq-designer-nikah-namas-Lahore-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Farooq-Ishaq-designer-nikah-namas-Lahore-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 807px) 100vw, 807px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10278\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Farooq Ishaq designer nikah namas Lahore<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Farooq Ishaq and Umar Shazad are the new designers from Pakistan. A form to treasure should be as beautiful as possible. Satanic minds in international circles are making a taboo of marriage itself and innovations to break the sacred contract are there ever more. The devil initiated concepts like SAYING NO TO HUSBAND and SAYING YES TO OTHERS. Adultery is no longer a crime in India in these new shape of things. Utter shame for\u00a0 any judicial system to sabotage sacred bond of human beings. And then initiating same sex marriages as a sort of romantic undertaking. It seems that Western powers want to erase the blessings of Allah on our society. The curse of Allah is not far behind Satanic minds.<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10283\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10283\" style=\"width: 295px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-of-Bahadur-Shah-Zafar.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10283\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-of-Bahadur-Shah-Zafar.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"295\" height=\"578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-of-Bahadur-Shah-Zafar.jpg 295w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-of-Bahadur-Shah-Zafar-153x300.jpg 153w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 295px) 100vw, 295px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10283\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nikah nama of Bahadur Shah Zafar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10281\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10281\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10281\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-1.jpg 450w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-1-191x300.jpg 191w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10281\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nikah nama Lahore 1<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10282\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10282\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10282\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"692\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-2.jpg 450w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Nikah-nama-Lahore-2-195x300.jpg 195w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10282\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nikah nama Lahore 2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10279\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10279\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hand-drawn-nikah-nama-Lahore-3.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10279\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hand-drawn-nikah-nama-Lahore-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"769\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hand-drawn-nikah-nama-Lahore-3.jpg 450w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Hand-drawn-nikah-nama-Lahore-3-176x300.jpg 176w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10279\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hand drawn nikah nama Lahore 3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_10284\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10284\" style=\"width: 960px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umar-Shahzad-nikah-nama-designer.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10284\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umar-Shahzad-nikah-nama-designer.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umar-Shahzad-nikah-nama-designer.jpg 960w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umar-Shahzad-nikah-nama-designer-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umar-Shahzad-nikah-nama-designer-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.chughtaimuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umar-Shahzad-nikah-nama-designer-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-10284\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Umar Shahzad nikah nama designer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE IMPULSE TO ADORN NIKAH NAMAS WITH ISLAMIC AESTHETICS TRADITION BEING REVIVED AT PLACES AND ROLE OF LAHORE ARTISTS Ordinary people got married at simple functions, where there was nor even a written record of a marriage.
