A 15-year-old teenage boy recently gained attention when he became the guardian to officiate his sister's wedding. Despite his young age, the teenager appeared calm and conducted his sister's wedding ceremony smoothly and confidently. Typically, teenagers of the same age would feel nervous and apprehensive about facing such responsibilities.
The video of the event went viral on TikTok, eliciting various reactions from netizens. Most praised the teenager's courage in shouldering such a significant family duty. With just one recitation and utterance from the groom, the marriage vows were completed.
Surely, his sister must be proud to have a brother capable of fulfilling the responsibilities of a male family member.
According to the Shariah Judiciary Department of Penang, a guardian refers to a close friend, leader, protector, or helper who is usually the closest male heir to the bride. This guardian is one of the essential pillars of marriage.
