"O Allah, make this book a guide to those whom you wish to guide"

P.S. for the love of Allah, do not pls waste your time reading novels. This book can wait but Ramadan has arrived only for a month.


Surely my Lord is with me. He will guide me through. Al-Qur'an 26:62




Kinza Malak sipped her green tea as she gazed at the kites flying high in the air. A neon pink plastic kite with a long white tail inflated in the wind with its steady breeze, spiraling higher and then back while being pulled across the ground.

Her stole and dress swayed with the wind and her curls teased her giving her a ticklish feel which she just brushed aside and tucked them behind her ears before glancing at her own kite. Gulping down the last sip of her instant green tea she kept the ceramic mug carefully on the banister and took her kite. It was purple; her favorite color.

"Aunty!" She called out for her aunt from the terrace to help her fly the kite and she got some reply which wasn't audible.

"I have been waiting for like half an hour, why can't you pause your work for some time?!" Kinza said as she saw her aunt climbing up the stairs, panting heavily.

"Sorry dear, I was caught up on a call with your uncle," Heena, her aunt replied as she helped her in throwing the kite in the air.

It was enthralling to see the kite swirling against the wind, kinza smiled as she made the kite fly at its limits. She felt a certain joy doing things which made her happy.

She and her Aunt Heena were so lost in flying the kite while avoiding it to be taken down by the other kite, they did not realize it was time for the sunset prayer. It was only when the call for the maghrib salah came, did the two ladies wind up their favorite past time.

As she came downstairs after offering her prayer, kinza saw Daniyal walking in and as their gazes met, he smirked which she
Ignored blatantly.

"Assalam Alaikum!" She heard him say and she replied silently without paying him a glance.

"Assalam Alaikum!" He said again, forcefully to which she glared at him and said," I did reply!"

Walking past him, she ignored what he was saying and took the Qur'an from the Aisle where some more Islamic and Quranic books were arranged along with prayer mats and tasbeeh.

She had just completed Surah Yaseen when the music started playing with a loud thudding and drumming noise which echoed in the whole AbdurRahman house.

Taking a deep breath and shaking her head in disappointment to no one in particular, she shifted her attention on reading Surah waqiah, but to no avail, she couldn't stop her mind diverting to the loud music blasting in the background.

Kinza Malak could feel the headache creeping in as she went upstairs and knocked on his door,
She was getting frustrated after having requested to lower the volume every time he started it.

Daniyal always grabbed the opportunity to tease her. But why? She often tried not to get in the way of Daniyal but he had this usual problem with her; Maybe to seek her attention?
