Pakistani Mufti Qavi Proposes Marriage to Rakhi Sawant; She Responds, “I Accept”

Hyderabad, 5 February – (DeccanLive.com Web Desk): In a recent podcast, Pakistan’s well-known religious scholar, Mufti Qavi, praised controversial Indian actress Rakhi Sawant for embracing Islam and proposed marriage to her. Rakhi Sawant has now responded to his offer.

When asked about the possibility of marrying Rakhi Sawant, Mufti Qavi expressed conditional willingness, stating that he would proceed with the proposal if his mother granted permission, as he values her consent deeply.

Mufti Qavi also clarified that, according to research by scholars like Dr. Zakir Naik, Hinduism’s sacred texts hold a divine status, classifying Rakhi Sawant as “People of the Book.” This classification makes a marital union permissible under Islamic law.

He further shared details about his previous marriage, stating that his late wife was from a prominent family. Though she has passed away, he still remembers her with great respect and honor.

On the other side, Rakhi Sawant has enthusiastically accepted Mufti Qavi’s marriage proposal. In a recent interview, she remarked humorously, “I’ve always dreamed of marrying a religious scholar. Qavi Sahab, your name itself means ‘poet.’ Please write poetry for me too!”

This exchange has created a buzz, drawing attention to the unlikely interaction between the two public figures.
