Notes

In the Azamgarhi speech community, like many conservative and traditional Muslim communities in general, women generally do not expose their bodies, including the face, to non-mahram, i.e., an unrelated male person. Hence, at the speaker's request, in this video, Seher Aquil's face is blurred.
