Another update, just because i want you guys to read chapter 47😂 🔥
Yes i have it written already!

"Ya Nafeesah i thought you're wise."

Adeelah said out of blues. She's been turning the words around her head thinking of how to begin with her sister. At first, she wanted to remain quiet but she remembered what the Sheikh said after he had finished lecturing aunt Beebo the other day. He said that some people only needed reminders in their lives to change, some people want someone to push them onto something and assure them they can do it. That's why the quran stated: fazzakir fa innaz zikra tanfa'ul mu'uminun. Remind! For reminder benefits the believers.

Adeelah had told him she knew about that particular verse. Much to her joy, the Sheikh went on to tell her story behind the revelation of first few verses of suratu Abasa.

"Allah opened the surah with the story of the encounter between prophet Muhammad S.A.W and Abdullahi bn Ummu Maktum who was a blind man. He went to the prophet to inquire more about islam and meanwhile the prophet was addressing the reputable men of Quraish, trying to bring their attention to Islam. When Abdullahi insisted on asking the prophet SAW, he frowned and turned his face away." Sheikh Muhammad Salim had stopped and looked at Adeelah before he proceeded.

"That's why the first verses said: Abasa wa ta walla, meaning he, the prophet frowned and turned his face away. In the few verses after, Allah told his prophet that maybe the blind man whom he frowned upon would repent as a result of what the prophet would tell him or he may benefit from what the prophet would have tell him. Verses followed and the last one i want you Adeelah to understand is where Allah said that all what prophet Muhammad was just a reminder. Whosoever wills should heed to it and follow what the quran says."

Adeelah would forever remember the translation of those verses. She saw more reasons why Salmah was so jealous and protective of her husband. His charm and knowledge would quickly sway alot of girls.

So Adeelah looked at her sister.

"Whatever i am going to say it's just a reminder Ya Nafeesah. Allah said do not approach zina... He didn't say do not commit zina. He said do not approach it. Because if you do approach it, it will be so hard for you to even avoid doing it all. I have seen your hand entangled with Ya Shahid's own. Just take heed and respect yourself." Adeelah told her. There wasn't any need to sugarcoat her talk whilst her sister wasn't a baby. She would rather be straight so Ya Nafeesah would take her more serious.

Mayhap out of shame and guilt, Ya Nafeesah wasn't able to talk. She didn't even reply Adeelah even when Adeelah told her she's leaving for her husband's house. She just sat numb as though she lost her nerves.

If only Adeelah knew she had done more than that and she was about to just slip into the gutter, she would have shred her alive. For real, it's but, a reminder and with Allah's will, Nafeesah was reminded.

Full of regret, she began weeping. Adeelah's words were stuck in her mind, they pricked somewhere, that even after crying she didn't stop feeling the tickles. For years, she had been living such a life. None of her friends saw any bad with it. They all lead their lives the same way. They believed life shouldn't be so boring as this was the modern days. Some of her friends were not even ashamed of saying the stuff they did as though they were tied in a knot with their boyfriends.

Nafeesah weeped again and washed her face. For, she had to cook the day's dinner because Asama'u wasn't around.

******

Nafeesah spent the whole night thinking of what Adeelah said. She remembered the last things she said-which were what had been nagging her. Did that mean she didn't respect herself or what. Tired of thinking she called to see her boyfriend the next day. Now as they sat in his car, windows wound down as she requested, Nafeesah didn't know how to begin.
