[The groom, Dennis Muhammad Abdullah, converted to Islam in 2015] The daughter of one of Malaysia’s most powerful sultans married her Dutch fiancé on Monday in a lavish ceremony steeped in centuries of tradition.

Princess Tunku Tun Aminah Sultan Ibrahim, 31, the only daughter of the Sultan of Johor, tied the knot with Dennis Muhammad Abdullah, 28, following a three-year romance.

The Dutchman, who has converted to Islam, and the princess were married according to Muslim Malay custom at the Serene Hill Palace, the royal family’s residence in the southern city of Johor Bahru. The private ceremony was attended by close family and friends.

The groom wore traditional white wedding attire and the bride a white dress. Dennis Muhammad placed the wedding ring on Tunku Aminah’s finger in a special room in the palace, according to the royal press office. And in keeping with wedding customs in the Muslim-majority southern state of Johor, he also gave her a dowry of 22.50 ringgit (US$5), and the couple kissed the hands of their parents, aunts and uncles as a mark of respect.

An evening reception on Monday night, however, promised to be the main event, featuring a “sitting-in-state” ceremony, with some 1,200 guests expected to attend and crowds watching the event on a big screen in a city square.

Preparations in recent days have been frantic, with the grounds of the main palace decorated with bunting and main streets adorned with flags.

“I am taking my wife and two young children to the city square tonight to witness the live broadcast of the evening celebrations,” said Azim Mohamad Nurazim, a 34-year-old local salesman.

Sometimes a word can best sum it up, the groom’s a douchebag.

The Muslims in Malaysia & Indonesia have completely different mentality than Arabs & Paki’s. Terrorism is not their agenda.

Don’t care what she looks like or how she is, I would never sell my soul to be with a mooselimb.

Assume she is a good mooselimb and was clipped at an early age so she is defective merchandise anyway.

“The Dutchman, who has converted to Islam”
Prima facie proof that he is a complete a$$hole. He is a rich bastard, taking money from the people in his country. Completely useless to the world, and now that he has gone into the death cult, an abomination.

Ask me what I think.

“How whipped do you have to be to convert to Islam for a woman?”

For a partial answer, search the short-lived “American Muslim” TV show.

Slap a few “Jaguar” badges on it and you would have the perfect Prince of Darkness.

imdb link to episode:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0708896/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl

“While Ensign Kim begins experiencing bizarre DNA changes, he instinctively leads Voyager to a planet whose inhabitants claim Kim is really a member of their race and is ritualistically returning home. When his welcome seems too good to be true, Kim loses contact with Voyager and begins to uncover the alien’s true intentions. “

guest star: Patrick Fabian, of Better Call Saul.

Hopefully this jogs your memory without a spoiler.

And yes, Jeri Ryan made it worth tuning in for.
