One striking aspect of Rashid Khan’s wedding that caught international attention was the sight of guests carrying guns outside the venue.

The wedding wasn’t just a personal affair; it was also a gathering of Afghanistan’s cricketing elites. Several cricketers from the national team attended, celebrating their teammate’s big day with joy and camaraderie.

One of the most heartfelt messages came from Mohammad Nabi, one of Afghanistan’s senior cricketers and Rashid’s longtime teammate.

In a tweet, Nabi shared pictures from the wedding and wished Rashid a lifetime of happiness and success. His message, “Congratulations to the one and only King Khan, Rashid Khan, on your wedding!” resonated with fans who see Rashid as a hero.
