LAHORE: The nikah ceremony of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz’s youngest daughter, Mahnoor Safdar, has been scheduled for September 12 at the Sharif family’s Jati Umra residence in Lahore, according to family sources.

The ceremony will be held at 5pm on Saturday and will remain a private family affair, with only close relatives and members of the Sharif family invited, the sources said.

Around 100 guests are expected to attend the nikah, reflecting the family’s decision to keep the occasion intimate.

Mahnoor is the youngest daughter of Maryam Nawaz and her husband, Capt (retd) Muhammad Safdar.

She recently completed her graduation in Anthropology from SOAS University of London, where she studied from 2023 to 2026.

Maryam travelled to London earlier this week to attend her daughter’s graduation ceremony and described the occasion as a particularly proud moment for the family.

The Punjab chief minister had said that all three of her children had now completed their higher education.

No details regarding the groom or any subsequent wedding events have been announced so far.

The nikah will be held at the Sharif family’s Jati Umra estate, which has previously hosted major family wedding events.

Earlier this year, Maryam Nawaz’s son Junaid Safdar married Shanzeh Ali at Jati Umra in a ceremony attended by senior members of the Sharif family and prominent political figures.

Unlike Junaid’s wedding, which was a larger and more publicised family event, Mahnoor’s nikah is expected to remain a relatively private gathering, with the guest list restricted to around 100 people.

The ceremony comes shortly after Mahnoor completed her studies in London and marks another family occasion for the Sharif household following her graduation earlier this month.
