This is a story about Ateeqa Dil Waqif. A Muslim teenage girl who at some point in her life started doing things against the Islamic teachings. Red to find out how she loses her touch with her religion slowly. The question is will she retrace her steps??
There is a wicked truth behind Marwa's separation from her family. Innocent but brave, will she survive the fire, that burns away buds before they can bloom?
{The horse halted suddenly and she held the baby tighter}
{Blood seeped through the little girl's curls, as she whispered something in Arabic.}
{Marwa wondered if she would have been different if her family was alive.}
An evil that lives on even today. Foetus to old woman. Pain inside out- but one Truth that triumphs over it all- ready to unravel it?
-Buried alive,
Tormented when she survived.
Why was her life,
Thought inferior and not sublime?-
