## Biography

### Early Life

―Muneeba Khan to Kamala Khan[src]

Before his sister Kamala went to have her driver license exam, Aamir jokingly advised her to pray to God since she would help all the help she could get, even though Kamala noticed that Aamir himself did not have a license. He later watched over some stuff sent by his grandmother Sana Ali, before witnessing Kamala's unsuccessful attempt to convince her parents to let her go to the New Jersey AvengerCon. Aamir visited Kamala in her bedroom with tea and complimented her on her attempt, promising to talk to their parents even though he also made fun of her since he believed her to be childish. On the day of the event, Aamir had dinner with his family before going to see his fiancée Tyesha Hillman.

#### Meeting Kamran

Out with Tyesha Hillman for the day, Aamir saw Kamala Khan with a boy in a restaurant. He walked in and said hello before asking who the boy was. He explained that he was Aamir's cousin Kamran who was Uncle Choudhury's son. Aamir said that he did not recognize him, but was confused on the british accent. Kamran apologized and said he was doing a bit. he then changed into his indian accent, which Aamir found impressive.

Later, they had dinner as a family and Yusuf Khan told Hillman the story of how Sana Ali, Muneeba Khan's mother, found her father during partition. Suddenly, Kamala passed out. Worried, Aamir sang a prayer as she woke up. Later, Yusuf helped Aamir get ready for *Eid Mubarak*. Aamir celebrated the holiday until Hameed suddenly found himself hanging from the mosque. Aamir watched as Night Light saved him.

#### Wedding

While preapring for his wedding, Aamir searched for his shoes, only to find none of them. He walked back into the party, telling everyone that the prank was supposed to be to take one pair of shoes, not all of them. Everybody laughed at the failed prank. Later, Aamir talked to Yusuf Khan as he was stressed about money. Yusuf sat Aamir down and told him that he was brave for choosing family over fear.

Aamir declared his love for Tyesha Hillman at his wedding as the two were professed wife and husband. They then sat down and watched a dance routine put on by his family. Aamir then danced with them. Suddenly, the fire alarm went off. Aamir grabbed his gift money before running out to join everyone else. They all sat outside, but could not find Kamala Khan. They finally reunited with her at home, but she refused to say where everyone was.

#### Kamala's Revelation

*"Well in classic Khan gossip train. You tell Ammi, she tells Abbu, and we overhear because he always has his phone on speaker."*
―Aamir Khan to Kamala Khan[src]
Muneeba Khan approached the family, telling them that Kamala was Night Light. When Kamala went to tell everyone herself, they all acted shocked as to not reveal that they knew. Aamir explained that if she told Muneeba, she would always tell Yusuf Khan. Then by association Aamir heard because Yusuf does not know how to turn off speaker phone. He then asked Kamala many questions. One being if she meant to drop Hameed. Yusuf told him to stop teasing her.

#### Battle at Coles Academic High School

Later, Aamir was tasked by Muneeba Khan to check on Kamala Khan, who was helping Kamran escape the United States Department of Damage Control. Aamir arrived at Coles Academic High School as Kamala was giving a plan. He listened and said Kamran should go out the back while they distracted the officials. Kamala asked how he got there, and he reminded her he also went to that high school and just sneaked in the window.

As Damage Control entered, Aamir told Kamran that he was helping him because Kamala only helped people that deserved it. Later, Aamir went to a room with Zoe Zimmer and set up softball machines. As the officers arrived, Aamir, Zimmer, and Nakia Bahadir pummled them with the softballs until more troops came up from behind and arrested them.

In a police van, they watched as Kamala was shot at. Suddenly, Kamran's hard light energy accidentally came at the arrested Aamir and the others. Kamala then calmed Kamran down and contained him.
