Their story begins not with Asiye's heart captured instantly, but with Jabir, whose heartstrings are suddenly plucked by an invisible force. It's a tale that defies convention, where the roles of affection and attraction are reversed. Amids...
In a profound yet silent moment, Asiye swiftly regained her balance, thanks to Jabir's timely support. "Thank you..." She began, her words faltering slightly. "You're welcome," Jabir replied, struggling to maintain his composure.
They continued strolling along the path toward the gate. Asiye cleared her throat, her hesitancy palpable. "I wanted to talk about what we discussed the other day... about wearing trousers," she began.
Jabir, intrigued, responded, "Oh... so?"
Asiye hesitated for a moment before confessing, "I've changed my mind about it. It's better to strictly follow what Allah says rather than adhering to our desires or mindsets. I've repented."
"That's wonderful to hear," Jabir replied. "Did you happen to verify the Hadith yourself, or was it merely a change of heart?"
Asiye admitted, "I don't know where to find the Hadith, but I heard your explanation, and it prompted me to repent."
"Indeed, it's good that you've changed your perspective," Jabir acknowledged, his voice trembling slightly. Then, he ventured, "Can you share me your WhatsApp number?"
"I'd love to send Islamic-related topics and share insights with you whenever I have free time." Jabir added.
"That sounds great," Asiye said. "Actually, the number I used to call you is my WhatsApp number." She added.
They engaged in a friendly conversation before parting ways, blissfully unaware that Emmanuel, the love rival, had observed the entire exchange and was intent on disrupting their budding romance since he also had his sights set on Asiye.
The following day became a pivotal moment for both Jabir and Emmanuel. Jabir had refrained from messaging her after obtaining her number to avoid appearing too eager.
Instead, he aimed to discern Asiye's schedule and arrange a date. Emmanuel, realizing that Jabir was gaining an upper hand, decided to set up a meeting with Asiye as well. He knew there were only one or two classes scheduled for the day, leaving ample free time.
Early in the morning, around 8 am, Jabir received a call from the car dealer he had been in contact with. The Toyota Camry 2007 he had been planning to purchase was now available. Jabir didn't hesitate; he acquired the car, hoping to make the day memorable for Asiye, especially since he had no classes.
At the same time, Asiye was preparing to leave for school when she heard a knock on her hostel door. To her surprise, a delivery man was standing there holding a package.
"Salam. Are you Miss Asiye?" he asked, extending a parcel. Confused, Asiye inquired, "Yes, but I don't recall ordering anything." The delivery man replied, "Someone asked me to deliver this package to you." He handed the package to Asiye and offered no further information.
Intrigued, Asiye returned to her room and opened the package to discover a dream gift. Asiye, a devout Muslim who consistently dressed modestly and wore a small hijab, had yearned to enhance her Imaan by adopting a longer hijab.
The package revealed an exquisite assortment of gifts, each thoughtfully selected to cater to Asiye's preferences. Inside, she found a gracefully designed, long pink Jilbab, a stylish pair of sneakers, a delicate bracelet, and a charming little handbag. It was as though the package had been assembled with her in mind.

Asiye's heart brimmed with delight at the sight of the gifts. The soft shade of pink, her favorite color, graced the Jilbab. Everything about this surprise was perfect, a harmonious blend of colors and styles that resonated with her.
Overwhelmed by this unexpected gesture, she pondered its origin. "Could one of my friends have sent this as an early birthday surprise?" Asiye mused aloud. With a sense of curiosity and gratitude, she decided to embrace the moment, slipping into the pink Jilbab, donning the sneakers, and accessorizing with the bracelet and handbag.
As she admired her reflection in the mirror, she couldn't help but feel a captivating sense of allure. The combination of the jilbab, sneakers, and her radiant light skin complexion melded perfectly, elevating her charm and attractiveness to a new level.
