Thariq himself has been close to Aaliyah since the beginning and has been serious about their relationship. Moreover, there are many things that eventually make them more confident to step into marriage.
"Since the beginning, I finally got close to her, two weeks after I got close, I immediately felt like, I know that you're the one. So I want this relationship to end in marriage, not a vague and uncertain dating," explained Thariq.
"Finally, now we know each other, and if we are compatible and destined by God, we commit before marriage," he concluded.
