(As days turned into months, Yousuf remained deeply committed to his faith, dedicating himself to learning and practice. He had nearly mastered the daily prayers, memorized many Surahs, and was on his way to becoming proficient in reading the Quran. His dedication was unwavering. Occasionally, Yousuf would visit Nehal's old house, hoping to find some sign of her return. Each time, he was met with the same sight: a closed, empty home that had been untouched for years. He even asked the neighbors if they knew anything about her whereabouts, but no one had any information. Despite the uncertainty, he held onto hope, praying that one day their paths would cross again)

(Another year passed, and Yousuf continued to grow in his faith, learning more each day and becoming more confident in his religious practices. He found a new sense of identity and fulfillment in his faith journey. Meanwhile, Nehal's studies had come to a successful completion. Her focus had now shifted to her physical recovery. Through relentless exercise and rehabilitation, she had made significant progress. She could now walk a little with the help of a cane, a testament of the hard work over the past years)

(One evening, Yousuf decided to invite Mawlana and his friend Ozan over for dinner. He completed half of his journey of doing hifz so he wanted express his gratitude for their support and guidance. He prepared a simple yet delicious halal meal. As the sun set, Mawlana and Ozan arrived. Yousuf greeted them with a smile, leading them to the dining area)

Yousuf: "Assalamualaikum, Mawalan and Ozan. JazakAllah both for coming."

(Yousuf said, kissing Mawalan hand)

Mawlana: " My son invited me, so how couldn't I come."

( He chuckled, as they sat down to
eat, as Mawlana gave him a bag )

Yousuf: " What's this Mawlana?"

Ozan: " See it yourself."

(Yousuf's eyes widened in happiness as he saw what's inside. He gently lifted the beautifully crafted gold plated Quran and the praying mat from the gift box. His heart swelled with gratitude as he looked at Mawlana with deep appreciation)

Yousuf: "Mawlana, this is... It's so beautiful. JazakAllah kher. I will cherish this gift forever."

(Mawlana smiled warmly at his reaction)

Mawlana: "You've worked hard, Yousuf. Memorizing half of the Quran is a significant achievement, and we are all proud of you. May this Quran and praying mat always guide you on the right path and bring you closer to Allah."

(Yousuf nodded, feeling overwhelmed with gratitude. He hugged Mawlana again)

Yousuf: "I don't know how to thank you enough for everything you've done for me."

( As they begin to eat, the conversation flows naturally)

Mawlana: "Okay, I need to leave now. My wife will be waiting for me. Take care of yourself, Yousuf."

Yousuf: "Let me drop you off."

(Mawlana shook his head with a gentle smile)

Mawlana: "No need, my house is not that far. I can walk."

(With that, Mawlana left, and Yousuf returned inside, inviting Ozan to join him upstairs. The two friends went to the balcony, enjoying the cool night breeze. Ozan had become a very close friend to Yousuf over the years, providing guidance and support alongside Mawlana. As they sat on the chairs, gazing at the night sky, Yousuf smiled and remarked)

Yousuf: "The sky and moon look so pretty tonight, pretty like my Nehal."

(Ozan glanced at Yousuf, noticing the wistful expression on his face)
