Went to save friend's marriage, marries the wife

A man who went to his friend’s house to mediate an end to a rift with his wife failed in his mission, but did not leave empty handed as got the wife for himself.

Ali Al Gamdi was called by his friend in the Southern town of Baljurashi, Saudi Arabia, to try to end the dispute with his wife after she insisted on a divorce.

“Gamdi said he failed in tackling the problem as the wife insisted on the divorce and left to live with her father,” 'Okaz' daily said.

“The father then thanked him for trying and told him that his daughter now wants to marry a man who will compensate her for her suffering.

"Gamdi quickly said he would be that husband. The father then asked his daughter who agreed to marry him.”
