A South African got married to a Moroccan woman in Morocco according to the tradition for Nikah in that country.
The Nikah was conducted by a judge in front of witnesses.
The man is not completely satisfied and wants to know:
1) Is it suitable to redo the Nikah in South Africa according to South African customs?
2) Would this be correct?
3) How could this be alleviated?
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
The nikah as explained by you in the question is valid. There is no need to perform another nikah.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
