You should Disagree with the marriage Why do you wanna run away again? I don't wanna commit another sin Do you wanna know what happens when a disaster meets a picture perfect. Written by : Omalia Haque Copy editing by : Anandi

"I must have hit my head a lot harder than I had anticipated, or maybe breathe too much smoke because this is definitely nut-case crazy. Or a very creepy dream that feels way too real for my own good. I can pat my subconscious on the back for that one, but at the same time, it might be a little over the top." When Melody set fire to a museum she didn't expect to hit her head on the pavement and wake up in a nightmare. But she does. And this nightmare is not a nightmare apparently--it's a curse. A curse that traps her into paintings. And there's no escaping from the wrath of a possessed painting out to teach an art-hater a lesson.

No matter how close you are to them, there are certain things you just don't say. No matter how lonely you feel, there are certain people you just don't befriend. No matter how much you've fallen, there's always a guy you shouldn't give your heart to... Sadly for me, I learnt the last one only after I had gotten my heart broken. They say that you shouldn't look down upon anyone, or you will be put in their situation and made to experience the crisis. When I was fourteen, I had rolled my eyes at a girl who was sobbing histerically over a guy who liked her best friend. And I was probably paying the price for that now. However, I was trying my best to fit my feet in the shoes I had been given. I was trying and I was managing just fine. What I didn't need was a trouble maker who entered my life without permission. The guy who claimed to be bowled over by me, the one with a broken heart. Little did he know, I had entrusted myself to Al Malik, The Owner of me and my heart. And if he had to reach me, he had to do so by pleasing Allah. Which wasn't possible for a guy like him. Or so I thought.

Growing up with an abusive father inayah never believed in the idea of getting married one day . She has always been busy chasing her dream to become a painter , But when her father all of a sudden gambles her to get married to the richest and the most successful man in the country, her dreams are crushed and swiped under the carpet and she only has one feeling set for her future husband : Hatred. ☆°•°☆ 𝐀𝐑𝐇𝐀𝐀𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐋𝐇𝐎𝐓𝐑𝐀 Arhaan always thought that marriage will be better than ones wildest dreams from the moment he saw the girl of his dreams in his college. Loving your academic rival from afar always have a beauty of its own even though sometimes it's unbearable and painful. But when one day his father announces that he will be marrying the girl of his father's choice in a week his dreams are shattered and he only have one feeling set for his future wife:contempt

(𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬) Growing up in an environment filled with failed and dysfunctional arrange marriages, the only thing Avika wished for herself was to never enter one. Yet in the end she found herself going through all the rituals with a man she barely knew. Tied to a stranger, all she expected from her husband was animosity and indifference because that is all she has seen and understood. She vowed to stay strong and not let the fate repeat itself in her case but when her husband behaves the exact opposite of what she has instilled in her mind, will she be able to see beyond the surface and give their story a chance?

" And warn them of the day of intense regret, when the matter shall have been decided; and they are (now) in negligence and they do not believe." - Quran. There are very less of us who can pinpoint their own wrong deeds and even lesser who work harder to make them right before we could cry over them and regret them. Similarly forgiving is hard but admitting your sins and then sincerely apologizing just to achieve the forgiveness is even harder. He was lost in the pit of darkness, he believed that this world is eternal, he forgot the real meaning of life, by name he was definitely Muslim but by deed...? But it doesn't take much longer when Allah tighten his hold, and only the sensible ones can get the 'message' in the moment, the few are there who falls in front of him and ask for his mercy. A sincere call is all just it takes, after all HE is the most merciful of all. *** Highest Ranking: Spiritual #24 03/09/16 Spiritual #28 05/08/16 Spiritual #53 19/07/16 Spiritual #61 16/07/16 Spiritual #71 27/06/16 Spiritual #96 03/05/16 Cover credit: Hershey-z
