When I said I loved you, I meant it from the bottom of my heart

A serious motorcycle accident resulting in a coma for three days could not stop a general assistant from holding the akad nikah (solemnisation) ceremony for his marriage as planned.

Izman Mohamad, 35, was married to Murni Osman, 33, in a simple ceremony at the orthopaedic ward of the Malacca Hospital here today.

The solemnisation was performed by chief imam of the Fat'hur Rahman Mosque, Yunos Bidin at 10am.

Murni, a clerk at the Bukit Katil Umno office here, said she was thankful the simple ceremony that was attended by their family members and orthopaedic ward staff went without a hitch.

Murni said she has known Izman for almost a year and was supposed to get married at her home in Durian Daun here today.

"I feel very grateful, happy and relieved that the akad nikah went on as planned even though it was held in a hospital," she said.

She said her husband slipped into a coma for three days after his motorcycle was involved in a collision with a car at Jalan Hang Tuah at about 1am on April 6.

Murni said Izman was allowed to attend their "bersanding" ceremony, which would be held tomorrow at Melaka Historical City Council (MBMB) Hall, Durian Daun. -- Bernama
