I walked down the white hallways filled with the smell of bleach and chlorine. The lights above were too bright, too luminescent. I can't think. I can't look straight. I can't breathe. Everything was blurry. I touched my cheeks and felt tears cascade down to my chin. My steps faltered. My heart wouldn't stop beating out of my chest. "I'm sorry Nouran." She had looked at me sadly, eyes filled with emptiness. No, no, no. What am I going to do? What am I going to tell him? Him. Izhar. I can't breathe.... Allah. •|#1 in Spiritual on February 20th, 2016 // March 26th, 2016 // May 20th, 2016 // June 25th, 2016 // July 3rd, 2016 // July 13th, 2016 // July 28th, 2016 // August 2nd, 2016 // August 13th, 2016 // December 28th, 2016 // January 21st, 2017 // January 27th, 2017 // March 23rd, 2017|• ||1 million reads as of May 12th, 2017|| ||2 million reads as of September 15th, 2018|| ||3 million reads as of July 15th, 2020|| ||A Wattpad Featured Story as of August 11th, 2017|| ||100K votes as of February 20th, 2018||

A NOVELLA- Nabila's world had once been filled with light, laughter, and love-until the darkness crept in and consumed it all. For the past year, she has lived in self-imposed exile, hiding from the people who knew her and the memories that haunt her. Once vibrant and full of dreams, Nabila now drifts through life in a haze of sadness and indifference, clinging to the faint hope that happiness might find her again, though it feels impossibly out of reach. Umar's life is no less tangled. Stuck in a complicated marriage, his only joy is his young son, who anchors him in a life that often feels unlivable. As a father, Umar's devotion is unshakeable, and he would sacrifice anything to keep his son safe and smiling, even if it means enduring a life that stifles his own happiness. When Nabila and Umar's paths unexpectedly cross, they discover a kindred spirit in each other-someone who understands the pain, the yearning, and the fragile hope for something better.

She wore her hijab with pride. He wore his faith on his sleeve. They never meant to fall in love-but destiny had its own plan. Fatima is the quiet, sharp-tongued girl in abaya, always on top of her class and always under people's judgment. Mohammad is the charming gym freak on a bike, with a soft heart, spicy cooking skills-and a secret past he doesn't talk about. They're college rivals, academic competitors, and maybe... something more. Between stolen glances, heated debates, and unanswered duas, something unspoken grows. But they know what it means to love in silence. They know what it means to guard their hearts in a world where love outside marriage is tempting-but never right. This is not your typical college love story. This is the journey of two souls who fall in love not by crossing boundaries... but by respecting them. A story of emotional tension, friendship, family pressure, longing, and the courage to choose the halal path-together. 💌 "How do you fall in love... without disobeying the One who created love?" Read now and step beyond the veil-where modesty meets desire, and faith rewrites fate.
