A Muslims Love Story

Chapter 2

Muhammad POV:

"Khalid took my toy." Sara (5 years) screamed from the top of the stairs as Khalid (3 years) pulled out his tongue at her.

Sara just screamed randomly.

"Sara. What have we said about screaming and where is your mum?" I asked pressing my head down.

"She's trying to put Yahya (1 years) to sleep she sent us downstairs." Sara replied. I wonder why...

"Khalid! Don't put my toy in the bin. I'm gonna tell dad when he comes back." She yelled then ran down the stairs. I wanted to stop them but I was too busy with some work.

"Ya allah (oh god)." Mum said getting out from the kitchen and walking towards Khalid and Sara.

"Aisha! Come downstairs with Yahya and take care of your kids." My mum shouted.

"Assalamualykum. (peace be with you)" Talha said entering the house. Sara and Khalid had stopped fighting and ran to Talha as he picked them up and gave them a hug. Talha was my brother in law and worked as a Religious Studies teacher at a high school; in his spare time he would tutor people at the school. The tutoring probably finished which may be why he came home early.

"Allahamdulliah you're home." My mum mummered.

"Daddy!" They smiled.

My sister Aisha came down and gave Yahya to Talha and made her way into the kitchen to help mum make the food. They lived next door to us but spent most their time here. Not that I was complaining I loved having them around.

"Not long now Muhammed. A couple of months and you'll be doing this." Talha said looking at Yayha who was smiling. It brought a smile to my face just thinking about me doing this. Nothing was fixed but in'sha'allah by the end of today I could have met my future wife.

I always wanted my relationship with my wife to be like the Prophet (SAW) relationship with his wife Hadrat Aysha (RA). They were so amazing; you read about them and its like a fairytale. This may be controversial but I think Romeo and Juliet is nothing compared to the prophet (SAW) love story with Hadrat Aysha (RA).

"Muhammad!" Talha said.

"I've been calling your name for ages. Its time to go pray Zuhr. " He continued cradling Yahya and then later put him in the cot in the corner of the room.

"Come on." I said getting up.

"Can I come daddy?" Khalid enquired. Me and Talha looked at each other and smiled.

"Of course you can." Talha said as I lifted him up.

"What about me?" Sara asked.

"You can stay with me and help me look after Yahya." Aysha said from the kitchen.

Sara shrugged and walked into the kitchen and as she went she pulled her tongue out at Khalid.

I lifted Khalid up all the way towards the Masjid. When we arrived we saw Rayhan and his dad Musa. Rayhan was a very close friend of mine from madressa- We did our Aalim course and I was meant to be going to his house to see his sister Ameena.

We all greeted each other.

"Do they grow that fast?" Rayhan asked as Khalid copied us in taking his shoes off.

"Yeah, You should see Yahya already starting to walk Alhamdulliah. How's Maryam?" Talha asked whilst we all took our shoes off and made our way inside the mosque.

"Good Alhamdulliah- Not long now at all." He smiled.

"Muhammad I need your help down in the restaurant tomorrow. Is it okay if you come to work earlier?" Rayhan continued.

"I don't mind at all in'sha'allah." I replied. I worked as an assistant manager in the restaurant. I got promoted a few days ago and Musa suggested his daughter to me. I agreed as I was looking too. I was surprised when she said yes after seeing my picture.

"They're starting to pray daddy." Khalid yelled with his hand on his hips in response to Musa, Talha and Rayhan conversation.

Musa picked him up and tickled him as we made our way to pray our Salaah. When we finished Talha and Musa went to the Imaan (person who leads the prayer) with Khalid who was laughing during the prayer because of how everyone was copying each other.

"Are you definitely coming at 4?" Rayhan asked me.

"In'sha'allah ." I responded.

"Uncle Muhammed and Rayhan look I got a sweet!" Khalid said jumping up and down.

"Wow! What's Sara going to say?" I chuckled as Talha gave me wide eyes. He shrugged his shoulders and put it in his pocket. He did it just to get Sara jealous.
