Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

A Qazi’s presence is not a general legal prerequisite to a valid nikah. Section 4 of the Kazis Act expressly says the Act does not make a Kazi or Naib Kazi’s presence necessary at a marriage. Assuming the other applicable marriage requirements are satisfied, absence alone does not render it void or irregular.
