19-year-old Anabiya is a beautiful delineation of purity. Sheltered all her life, she is hesitant to come out of her shell & is yet to unravel limitations. Destiny manoeuvres her life to come across someone who has already attained his fair share of the worldly life and is now living it hedonistically but unbeknownst to the 31-year-old Jalal, he might stumble up somewhat of an awakening in the form of a shy timid little girl.

Set in the rural areas of Pakistan, "𝑰𝑺𝑯𝑸 𝒁𝑨𝑨𝑻" unfolds a social romantic tale of strayed souls observing the divergent elements of life to finally finding a way to each other & becoming one.

This moral reforming novel, based on romanticism is an sublime exploration of one's true identity as well as highlights the transitory and fickle concepts of "ishq" while hosting a rollercoaster of fluctuating emotions.

Hey pretties
it's Husna here, before beginning the story let me share that I have ABSOLUTELY no idea why I decided to post this story on my wall

Every coping mechanism is VALID so think of this as just me trying to distract myself by writing on my own. English happens to be my third language so you'll find this story FILLED with grammatical, punctuational and spelling mistakes along with a non linear written style.

I'm a hardcore fan of Urdu poetry so you'll find poetry in almost EVERY chapter, I believe Urdu is a language of love and therefore it's a very essential element to use in this story. You may skip the poetry parts if not interested, sorry in advance.

✹ The book may contain light spiritual themes but can not possibly serve as a basis of islamic guidance.

✹ Heads up: try not to use the text-to-speech option as the dialogues of this book are written in Roman Urdu.

Only constructive criticism will be appreciated.

✹ I do not claim to own any picture posted, nor some of the Urdu Poetry/Quotes written in this book.

✹ This is the unedited version of the book
