A few days later, Imama took some books with her to school. When they were together during recess, she brought the books along. =I have something for you.‘ =Really? Let‘s see what it is.‘ Imama held out two sets of books from the bag, one towards Javeria and the other towards Tehreem. They quietly glanced at the books. Javeria said nothing, but Tehreem reacted. =What‘s this?‘ she said coldly. =I brought these books for you,‘ Imama replied. =Why?‘ =So that some of your wrong impressions about us can be corrected.‘ =What sort of wrong impressions?‘ =The wrong impressions you have about our sect,‘ Imama explained. =Who told you that there are any wrong impressions about your .religion. or your prophet?‘ Tehreem asked very seriously. =I can judge that myself: that is why you do not come to my house.

Peer-e-Kamil(S.A.w)   Chapter 2 All this began with an incident in school. Imama was then a student in the Matric class; Tehreem was one of her good friends.

What for?‘ Imama looked at her, surprised. =We‘re going shopping. Come with us.‘ Rabia moved fast as she ironed her clothes. =No, thanks. I don‘t want to go anywhere.‘ Imama lay back on her pillow, her forearm shielding her eyes. =What do you mean by .I don‘t want to go anywhere.? Who‘s asking you, anyway? I‘m telling you,‘ Rabia continued in the same tone. =And I‘m telling you that I am not going,‘ replied Imama without moving. =Zainab‘s coming too—the whole group is going—and we‘ll go to the movies when we are done shopping.‘ Imama looked up. =Zainab‘s coming along?‘ =Yes, we‘ll pick her up on the way.‘ Imama became thoughtful. =You are getting duller by the day, Imama!‘ Rabia‘s tone was piqued. =You‘ve stopped going out with us; what on earth is happening to you?‘ =Noth...
