Bintu's POV
"Class submit your assignment"bintu's math teacher announced.
The class gathered their booklet and gave it to the maths teacher before he exited the class.
"Phew" bintu sign
" well someone is in a good mood" Nusaiba smirk
" obviously, you know I couldn't have done that assignment without you. Thank you so much Nusaiba"
"Don't mention" Nusaiba smile
"You really are a life saver"
" come on bintu what are friends for"
"You are right, I owe you one"
"I'll sure to keep that in mind"Nusaiba smiled mischievously
The bell rang indicating it's long break which means prayer time for Muslim student. Bintu and Nusaiba walked hand in hand to the canteen to buy some snarks before going to the mosque.
"Hmm" Nusaiba hmmed
"What" bintu gave her a questionable look
"Wanike gani haka a masallaci kaman bilkisu" (who am I seeing in the mosque like bilkisu). Bintu understood why Nusaiba is shocked and just smiled.
"I know you might be guessing why bilkisu is in mosque today because she hardly comes right"
"Yeah"
"I kinda told my mom about her not caring about her daily prayers and you know how bilkisu is, I told her that she might enter hell fire if she doesn't pray her daily prayers" bintu dragged nusaiba close to her so that no one will hear their conversation
"Kinsan mai bilkisu tayi danace mata haka"(do you know what bilkisu did after I told her this.
"Metayi"(what did she do)
" she started crying and told our class mates that am bad mouthing her. But some of our class mate agreed with me though, I mean am only telling her the truth.
" is that why you told your mom" Nusaiba asked.
"Yes since she won't listen to me at least she will listen to an elder. She is my Muslim sister and I can't just watch ber doing wrong and stay quiet" bintu said while Nusaiba nodded in agreement.
"Though my mom approached her in a different way, she told her that Allah punishes people that neglect their prayers in this world, in the grave and in the hereafter" bintu narrated
"Well I think your mother's approach worked because here she is" Nusaiba pointed at bilkisu
"Yes that's why she's my mom" bintu bragged
Nusaiba rolled her eye"quite the possessiveness she's going to be my teacher in a few months to come"
"Whatever"bintu flipped her invisible hair.

At the Assembly ground all the student gathered recite the National anthem followed by the school anthem, all the staff gathered at the long corridor outside the school hole opposite the student. The principal greeted the staff before addressing the student.
"You students all know what is assigned for you to do, your parents worked hard to pay your school fees so do not shame them by being a lazy child. We all have goals and dreams, so in order to make your goals and dreams come true you all have to strive hard and make your parents proud, make yourself proud" Prof. shamsu continued addressing the student on what they should do in school and whatnot.
Minutes later the assembly was finished. The students roamed to their various classes while teachers to there department.
"Bintu" a voice called. Bintu turned and saw bilkisu running towards her.
"Bintu am really sorry about that day..."bilkisu said nervously. Bintu didn't say anything as she really felt bad about what bilkisu did to her
"Bintu please I'm sorry, I knew you where only trying to tell me about the consequences about missing my daily prayers, is just that I....uhm....I...I.." Bilkisu looked really frustrated, she didn't even know how to justify herself because she knows that there really wasn't any excuse for her to skip her prayers.
"Bilkisu look, it's OK just ask Allah for forgiveness because if you are willing to repent and not skip your prayers again then Allah is the most merciful"bintu smiled at her, bilkisu smiled back
"Friends"bilkisu extended her hands towards bintu
"Friends"bintu hugged her
"And also please do thank your mother for me"bilkisu added
"Ok, see you in class" bintu bade bilkisu good buy.
After clossing hour, today bintu is following the bus because their mu'alim(Islamic teacher) ask them to come to islamiyya by 3 so she can't wait for her mom. Bintu hopes that
Bilkisu keeps her words and changes for good because their mu'alim told them that they should always be mindful of their prayers, for who ever neglect his prayers Allah will neglect him in this world and the here after and he will always be in one problem or the order.
