"O My servants, you commit sins by day and by night, and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness from Me and I shall forgive you."
Adan was getting late from college she was getting ready curled her hair and applied lipstick which was light in color and then applied mascara all set. She wore the stole in neck so no one could say she doesn't have any shame left. She heard the horn and quickly took her bag and went to the van. She said salam to to the van driver and the girl who was siting Infront of her. She had to change 2 vehicles to reach college so van left her at the first stop.
She was busy in her own thoughts listening to music because she thought it relaxes her and her mood Becomes good when she listens to music.
She was waiting at the bus stop the boys passing by her stared at her. She didn't pay attention to them and kept listening to the music because she didn't care about what anyone does because she knew her intentions are right and she is not bad at heart. And she has all the rights about choosing what to wear. Her bus came and she boarded in. Fortunately, in the morning she always gets a seat but when coming back to home she had to stand in the bus. She sat Infront of a women who was all wrapped in the abaya and jilbab with a counter in her hands.
Adan gave her a look and thought our islam is not that strict that it doesn't let a women wear what she wants. Her stop came. She entered the college and romoved her lipstick and tied her hair so the teacher couldn't insult her. During recess at Zuhr time she with her friends went in the empty classroom and was enjoying their lunch and two girls came with their prayer mat and offered their salah.
There was always a fear in her heart of not praying and even not observing fasts during ramadan because she feels weak if she stays hungry all day long. But she didn't let that fear overcome her and started talking with her friends again who were also like her.
She came back home by 4:00 pm and was so tired she changed, ate and laid on her bed using her phone. She checked all the messages from her friends male/female and did some chit chat.
After that she had to make some food for everyone at home she cooked and started doing her assignments. At night she started talking to her friends watched movies and slept.
Next day, on her way back to home two girls in abaya and niqab was siting with her in the bus they started asking what do you study?
Adan : I'm studying business accounting.
Girl: Ma SHA ALLAH.
ADAN: WHAT ABOUT YOU?
GIRL : WE STUDY IN THE ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY AND ARE DOING MASTERS IN ENGLISH.
ADAN : THAT'S GREAT BUT THE ENVIRONMENT THERE IS VERY STRICT YOU CANNOY TALK TO BOYS AND HAVE TO WEAR DUPATTA ALWAYS.
GIRL : DON'T YOU THINK THATS GOOD BECAUSE IN ISLAM WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE MALE FRIENDSHIPS
ADAN : ISLAM IS NOT THAT STRICT WE ARE BECOMING EXTREMIST AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT. ALTHOUGH, HAVING FRIENDSHIP DOESN'T MEAN WE ARE COMMITTING A SIN OR ARE IN A RELATIONSHIP. WELL HERE IS MY STOP ALLAH HAFIZ. HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN. (BUT ACTUALLY NOT).
