Unfortunately his

Farewell

Life can never offer you happiness until it has made you sad some day.

Samairah

As i lay on my prayer mat after magrib prayer,  I could hear the chirping of the birds happily, at the garden besides my room....  They scents of the flowers and the smell of rain,  as the clouds gathers outside, you could hear the roaring of the thunder and lighting that sparks like electricity..... 

I recited a Du'a, as my mind drifted to the conservation I had earlier with my mom after asr prayer......

Samairah not all marriages start with love, she said......Some are fortunate to fall in love with each other before marriage, while others are not, I am a living testimony of an arranged marriage.....  I fell in love with your dad after marrying him.....

Like you I was free spirited and pampered and no one told me to dropped that before I entered my marital home.....  As you know I was raise by your great grand parents,  my parents, your grand parents died in a car accident when I was a little.....

So am going to say this once drop you attitudes and stubbornness in this room today......"Marriage is beyond your comprehension, is a new duty and responsibility..... "  We have help in completing half of your deen is now upon you to work hard towards acquiring your Jannah, because it lies under his feet......

"Never samairah, I repeat never raise your voice on your husband even if his at fault..... Is a sign of disrespect and men love there ego"

If both of you are in a heated conversation, drink a glass of water, and offer him some it will help in calming you nerves.....

"We have brought you up the best way we know possible, and Masha Allah you have grown to be an amazing woman..... These is your opportunity to prove to us whether we have fail as a parents or we did a good job......"

Don't ever go to bed angry,  apologize even if you are not at fault..... And whenever you hurt him or you are the caused of his anger and he sleep in that state, they angels will cursed you from dusk to dawn so be careful.....

" And one more thing our heart and this house is always open for you no matter what..... "

Come give your mom a hug she said..... I hugged her and cried on her shoulder and I could feel droplets of tears from her eyes on my shoulder too.....  I love you so much mom I said...... I love you too she said whispering sweet nothing into my ears......

Zee burst into the room snapping me out of my thoughts.....

Hey madam salam will suffice than you bursting into the room like that I said.....

Hey moody bride take a chill pill, I did say salam,  but when you didn't answer, that's why I opened the door.....  What's up with you?  What's with that tone.....

Am sorry Zee, I said.....  I am just scared and confused,  they last person I want to see is the person am married to.....  How can I be a good wife when I don't even love him and again a daughter in -law.....  Am so used to mummy suhailat, she is like a second mom to me.....  How do I behave with her now that she is my mother in-law.....

You think too much Samairah.....  Just be yourself..... Mum suhailat knows you in and out.....

About Zaid, even when the sky is dense it must give way to sun to shine..... He sees you as a spoiled brat and pampered lady.....  Just be you around him and give him a chance to really get to know the real you.... Learn to control your temper..... He has his flaws and you have yours and everything gets better with time Insha Allah.....

Less I forget mom asked me to give this clothes to you, prayed and change into them....  They grooms family are here to take you....  

✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔✔

Leaving my family and entering into a new one is hard, although is also like my other home but still.....  I cried my eyes out until it was red and swollen....   As I when to bid my dad farewell he couldn't looked at me and the only word he was able to altered with a trembling voice was may Allah bless me and make this union a blessing for both of us.....  He kissed my forehead and hugged me before walking away......

I hear a lots of do's and don't from my aunts,  cousins and brothers.....

I was welcomed into my new home stylishly with petals spread everywhere....  Mom suhailat kissed my forehead and welcome me into the new family, I burst into another heaps of tears....  I know am lucky because I left my mother's house and came into another mothers house who loves me like her own daughter too,  but I couldn't control my tears.....

..........
As the time ticks by slowly I sat on the bed waiting for my husband to come.....  The beating of my hearts could be heard miles away.....  To say I am scared was a understatement,  I have never been so nervous in my life before, I keep reciting any du'a that comes in my mind.....

I heard the creaking of the door and a salam, as he walked towards me.....  My intestines are somersaulting so much.... 

He sat at the edge of the bed not far from me...  

Salam Samairah he said.....

Wa'allaikum salam came my reply with a trembling lips.... 

Change into something comfortable some of you clothes are in the wardrobe there, let me perform wudhu... So that we can pray the two nafil.....

Okay I answered..... He walked towards the lavatory folding the hand of his kaftan shirts.....

I opened the wardrobe and selected my black Abaya with no design on it...  I change into it quickly before he comes out....

When he came out he was surprised to see me all changed, he smiled and shook his head.....  I entered the bathroom without saying anything.....

When I was out I found he has spread the prayer mat..... Praying the obligatory prayer with him give me a sense of peace and contentment in my hearts.....  He placed his right hand on my forward and read the du'a for married couples casting out the evil in me, and praying to Allah to bless the offspring I will bore and make them good Muslim and be beneficial to Islam.... We folded the mat and kept it safely at it place.....

I sat at the edge of the bed and he also sat down close to me too.....

Samairah am sorry about this arranged marriage, and I promise to be a good husband to you....  I will never touch you until you are comfortable with me and you are ready...... Am not gonna rush you take you time...... Let's start by really getting to know each other......

You are looking beautiful today as always..... Get some rest am sure you are tired I will be in the other room.....  He came closer and kissed my forehead leaving tinkling feeling there.....  Goodnight he said.....

Goodnight.....
