Hasan Ilmas loved his wife. But, he loved her in all the wrong ways. He made too many mistakes; hurt her too much. This is the story of all the wrong things he did. Should Adinah forgive him because he did them out of love? --- Adinah is in a marriage she did not feel ready for. Depressed and exhausted almost all the time, she still tries to love her husband and fulfil her duties as a wife and daughter-in-law. But marriages are nothing less than a battlefield around here. Trapped in a household where unwarranted criticism and tireless labour are the norm, she soon finds her patience running out. To survive, she must learn to keep afloat in the tough waters of mental illness and emotional abuse, holding on to the rope of the deen. © copyright Zainab Alam, 2017. // previously: Some Pain To Write I've renamed it quite a few times, and changed my own name and username.
