From CBC:

WILL SHE, OR WON’T SHE? DON’T MISS THE CLIFFHANGER SEASON FINALE OF CBC-TV’S LITTLE MOSQUE ON THE PRAIRIE, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5, AT 8 P.M.

2lmop176Is Rayyan (Sitara Hewitt) about to say yes to an arranged marriage? Although Rayyan and J.J. (Stephen Lobo) were childhood friends, they haven’t seen each other in years. J.J. is now an engineer, and after a short chaperoned courtship, he’s ready to pop the question. Will she say yes? Find out on the final episode of season two of LITTLE MOSQUE ON THE PRAIRIE, Wednesday, March 5, at 8 p.m.

Things are working out really well between the two. Deciding it’s the right time, J.J. asks for Yasir’s (Carlo Rota) blessing, which Yasir gives enthusiastically. As far as Yasir is concerned, it’s a done deal. There’s only one thing missing—J.J. hasn’t asked Rayyan yet. Meanwhile, Amaar (Zaib Shaikh) tries to come to terms with his feelings for Rayyan before it’s too late and Sarah (Sheila McCarthy) wonders if this is the year she will be ‘the mother of the bride’.
