How did he propose? 

Abed and I decided to do things the traditional way that embraced our Arabian culture. We had no proposal, rather we went through the formalities of bringing the grooms elderly and wise over to the brides house, meeting and greeting the brides elderly and wise as a sign of utmost respect and unity between the two households. There’s a famous  Arabian aphorism that says “I’d like to come through the door and not the window” and that we did.
