Ugandan couple Farouq Kamugisha and his partner Sumayyah Namugerwa are married but they never dated before their nuptials.
The 36-year-old businessman and his 24-year-old bride got married back in 2019.

Farouq was intoxicated by Sumayyah’s strong faith and wifely character prompting him to ask for her number.

The two got to know each other and within no time, they met each other’s parents for an introduction.
Farouq told mywedding.co.ug:
“We agreed to know each other with good intentions of marriage which resulted in a visit to her parents in Mbarara until we finally did the Nikkah and kwanjula.”

After the meeting, the two agreed to get married and immediately set a date for their big event.
It did not take months of back and forth or indecisiveness. Farouq and Sumayyah were in love and they knew the goal was to be together till death do them part.
Before their ceremony, the businessman and the seamstress stuck to the rules of Islam and did not cohabit.
