London ki chamak-dhamak mein bhi uski tanhaayi saath thi... jab tak ek muskaan ne uski zindagi mein dastak nahi di. Jessica - ek khuli kitaab jaisi larki, har pal hans mukh aur baaton ki baarish. Par uski muskaan bhi ek raaz sameti hui thi... jo use Fatima bana dega. Shifa - ek masoom, khamosh rooh, jismein woh gehraayi chhupi hai jo Ahmer ke dil ke zakhmon ko bhar sakti thi. Aur Ali - Shifa ka bhai, jo sirf ek rakhwaala nahi... balki un raazon ka bhi saathi ban gaya jo sab ke taqdeer badalne wale the. Ye kahani hai mohabbat ki, imaan ki, aur ek aise raaz ki... jo zindagi ke har rang ko badal dega. ✨ Kya aap tayyar hain Raaz-e-Hayat ke is safar ke liye?

I love you," Talha whispered, his eyes fixed on the floor, afraid to meet hers. "Then... do you want me as your wife, or a passing shadow in your life?" her espressions hidden behind her naqab. "I want you as my wife," Talha said, carrying the weight of two years of longing. "From the moment I first saw you, I knew you were different... not like the others who wear the niqab by convenience." She questioned softly, "How do you know... that I am the same person?" "I just know," he breathed. "Some hearts recognize each other... some souls feel what eyes cannot." A quiet pause lingered. Then Iffah's voice, came like a gentle breeze: "Fine. First, we will meet at Barista Café we will see if we meet eachother's standards. Then, you will come to my home ... I will show you my face... and you may choose." Her eyes crinkled in a smile. He felt a blush rise, over his face. Iffah Firdaus Ansari, 21 years old, a naqabi, guarding her gaze from ghair mehrams. She walked as if each glance could mislead, her heart anchored in fi dunya wal akhirah. Talha Muadh Alvi, 26 years old, a man whose life revolved around deen, in hearts guided by faith.The moment he saw her standing apart, serene and untouched . Millions of uncovered women surrounded him, veiled and distant, who captured his soul.

WHAT ABOUT THE AFTERLIFE? Daniyal Hasan, 19, is nowhere near redemption. Born to a Pakistani father and a convert Irish mother, he has strange blood flowing in his veins. He drinks, parties when there's money in his pockets, is into sleeping around and often occurring club brawls. Since his mom died when he was 10, the only family he has left is his father, who is, ironically, never there for him. His life is hell ever since his father re-married a British woman, who is only after his million pounds Financial Solutions firm. His guitar is his sole solace. Having a gifted voice, he distracts himself (ironically) from his life by singing in shady bars, doing small gigs here and there and earning some cash along the way. Who knows when that dad of his goes bonkers again?! ❣ Hidayah Ali, a decidedly pretty Indian girl, has recently come to St. Patricks High, Manchester as an exchange program student. Coming from a typical, Indian middle-class family, making a grand career is uppermost in her mind. She tries to hold firm to her religion, keyword being 'try', and has a veil on when in public. But like our hero, she isn't perfect either. Even though she knows it's haram, she has a weak spot for music; sitar and piano being her favorite instruments. She even sings a bit to her sister and friend, promising to leave everything after high school. Will the two ever get out of this vortex of sins and find a place in their hearts for each other?
