"Before anything else I want to do something."

"What?"

"I want to be Muslim, I don't know when I'll get chance. Do you know how to become one."

This made Eira to smile widely.

"Are you sure? No one is forcing you in this right?" She asked softly.

"I'm sure and no one is forcing me." She replied back with a smile.

"Shall we start then?"

"Please, I have been waiting for this from years."

Eira chuckled looking at her eagerness.

"Then repeat after me."

She nodded with a wide smile getting excited.

"Ashahado An Laa ilaaha." Eira started reading.

"Ashahado An Laa ilaaha." Sana was trying to read after her getting a little difficulty.

" illal Laho Wahdahoo Laa Shareeka Lahoo."

" illal Laho Wahdahoo Laa Shareeka Lahoo."

"Wa Ash Hado Anna Mohammadan Abdo Hoo Wa Rasoolohoo."

"Wa Ash Hado Anna Mohammadan Abdo Hoo Wa Rasoolohoo."

"Congratulation my sister, welcome to Islam." Eira beamed with happiness.

"I became Muslim? You are sure right?"

"Yes, I'm so happy for you."

"I.." her voice chocked and the tears of happiness started falling from her eyes like some pearl rain.

She got up from her seat and hugged Eira tightly, even Eira got up from her seat and hugged her back gently caressing her.

Alex's eyes were fixed on Eira, he was getting protective of her.

"Thank you thank you so much I..I can't believe this is really happening. Thank you mam thank you so much."

"First of all I'm not mam my name is Eira and second it is my honour that I was able to help you."

"Thank you really." She said with tears.

"I haven't done anything Sana, it was Allah's mercy that he wanted you to accept our religion. I was just a helper nothing else, so stop thanking me."

They settled back on the chairs with never ending smile on their faces.

"Can I ask you something?"

"Ofcourse." Eira replied politely.

"You were so cold and stern before then why did you talk so nicely with me?"

Eira chuckled at her.

"You know we have to talk in a cold voice with Na mehram's. It means except your Father, own brothers, paternal and maternal uncles, grandfathers and lastly your husband and son, this all comes in your mehram relations including father in law but for some extend. So, apart from them we have to act cold and talk in stern voice so that they will not get attracted towards you. It is for our own good Sana." She explained calmly.

"I really have so much to do. Thank you once again I'll remember this."

Eira nodded with a smile, which was hidden under her veil.

"Can I ask you some personal question if you don't mind."

"Go ahead."

"Actually I was thinking that you are so religious and pious then why did you married him? He isn't even a Muslim."
