Chapter 46: Prayer Point🤲🙏🤲

***

Meanwhile, Humaira and Doctor Zayn went for shopping in their beautiful night market. Zayn said he wanted to ease himself so, he walked to a corner, leaving Humaira alone. After a while, he came back and they continued their shopping.

"I'm so tired already, we've bought a lot of things." Humaira stretched.

"Aren't you buying anything more? We would be leaving tomorrow you know?" He suggested.

"Yes, I've bought all I need perhaps, I'm not a shopperholic." She chuckled softly as they took a taxi to the hotel. After a while, Humaira went to knock on Zayn's door.

"Yes dear." He muttered as he opened the door.

"I really want to go to the mosque. This is the last night I'll spend here and... I just realized I have a lot prayers to say before I go."

"Awwwwn..." He cried and complained. "but we just got back."

"It's fine if you don't want to follow me. I'll go alone." Humaira meowed.

"Don't worry dearie. Give me a minute, I'll change my jalabbiyah and join you in a minute." He jerked and went back inside.

Humaira couldn't help but to laugh at Zayn. He is a doctor but he's acts so funny whenever he wants to.

Zainab went to ablute before making two rakkahs. After that, she placed her head to the ground in Sujud, making these supplications.

In the Name of God, the Infinitely Good, the All-Merciful.
Praise be to God, the Lord of the worlds.
The Infinitely Good, the All-Merciful.
Master of the day of judgment.
Thee we worship, and in Thee we seek help.
Guide us upon the straight path.
The path of those on whom Thy grace is,
not those on whom Thine anger is,
nor those who are astray." She continued making supplications until her eyes started bleeding tears and all she felt was being remorseful.

"O God,
O He whom the depiction of the describers
fails to describe!

O He beyond whom passes not
the hope of the hopers!

O He with whom is not lost
the wage of the good-doers!

O He who is the ultimate object
of the fear of the worshipers!

O He who is the utmost limit
of the dread of the god-fearing!

Please forgive me all of my wrong doings. My misfortunes and my misdeeds." Her eyes were closed on ground as she shed out more tears.

"Ya Rabb, accept the good in all my prayers and make you plan for me come into reality. Oh Allah... Purify my heart, soul and body and please, make me remember who I am. I don't know who Humaira is or why the name keeps popping in my head but, I feel I've wronged this person somehow. Oh Lord let me meet her soon and make things easy between me and Khalid. I don't know if he's the right one for me because I don't know my tomorrow... Oh Allah, Grant me the best spouse and children when the time is fit. Spouse and children that would be my guardian to paradise oh Allah. Please don't let me go astray. I pray for the Maikuddi's bless and protect them and also increase them in Heath and good health. Amin. Amin. Amin."

By this time, her eyes were fully red. A feel of fulfilment and happiness ran through her. She felt relieved and she knew that God Almighty would accept her prayers.

She knows that had completed her prayers then, she lifted up her face from the ground. There and tgen, Zainab saw someone in from of her, prayer. She was seated in a familiar posture, Zainab just had to move closer...

But the lady was making her silent prayers in her mind.

'O God,
so here I am:
I have come to Thee
obeying Thy command
(for Thou hast commanded supplication)
and asking the fulfillment of Thy promise,
(for Thou hast promised to respond)
Thou hast said,
Supplicate Me and I will respond to you.
