In-between




Ko7 Ko7 Ko7 ..
Ghbaar ghbaaar...
:D


Maskeen bloggy mn ziman 3annah. I 've been travelling and haven't stayed much in Kuwait after Ramadan. Life is steering us in this unexpected direction where there are alot of cross roads, and all u can do is el-estikhara, choose one and go through with it and praying it was the right path.

Oh and Taiba,
Thank you sweetheart for your email.
You are THE BEST :*

For lack of inspiration, I thought i would share this with you all. I received an email more than a month ago, and quite franly I was disgusted. 7aram the girl who sent it to me wanted some help but my tongue was tied and my heart was heavy with the weight of her problem that I didn't know what to say.

I couldn't publish it then, because it was just the first week of Ramadan and i felt if I did, I would disgrace the spiritual nature of this holy month.

Anyway, here goes:




hiii glitterr... shu a5barek?
hows ramadhan treatin u so far? lol i dnt feel it here e9ara7a.

Maby a6awel 3laich, bs i need some advice bs msh 7aggi.. for my friend. im trying my best to help her bs she's not making things easy for me.. fa madri walla.

see, my friend S, who comes from a very strict shia family unfortunatley fell in love with A, a sunni. A is also my cozin, tara he introduced me to S and we become really good friends after that.

Anyways, their relationship started when she was 15 ou ohwa 18, online, bs soon online turned to txtin then to calls n then to meeting up and eventually they fell in love.

They dated for 7 yrs, breaks ups happened fnu9, bs they always always returned back 2 each other. They made a very very sweet couple. Their love was something u would see in movies. they never let the shia sunna thing come in between them. He wud support her beliefs, and she his.

It wasnt long b4 proposals started coming S's way and she wud keep refusing, bs there was a specific guy her parents wanted her to say yes to, someone from a good family and a close cloooseee family friend, her mom was like ull embarres us etha gelti la2... So S out of anger just told her enah she was seeing a guy. That alone was a huge sin in the parents eyes ou the fact that he was a sunni good they didnt get a heartattack.. El mhm her father beat her wayed, took her car keys, phone, laptop away from her. She wasnt allowed to leave the house '3air weya her bro or parents.. Naturally A was trying to get in touch with her ou ma kan gadr cuz he didnt know what had happened fa he called me, i found out ou getlteh and he was soo upset!! he cudnt believe enah he was the reason for all this, and he didnt want to see her suffer.

For a while i became their messeneger until shway shway S's situation at home became better and she got a chance to speak 2 him. he broke up weyaha, gaal enah maleh daa3i u go thru this weya ahlch, and its not going to work.

I saw A everyday ou sheft enah he was like really really upset, and she wasnt willing to move on. she wud call and txt him bs he wudnt reply back thinking that wud help. And when that didnt help he just went ahead and marrid someone else.

3ad u can imagine 7allet S, she went into depression for a while, and then like 6 mnths later she was like 7atta ana ill just say yes to the guy, and she did.
fa they both got married.

Al7een the prob isnt this :P the above was bs el introductin...
After S got married, by like 9 mnths wela shay, we were sitting in a coffee shop ana ou heya and out of nowhere she's like i miss him.. can i call him? is it ok for me to call him?. ofcourse i tried talking her out of it, but S is S, wayed 3needa.. she went ahead and called anyways.. i dnt knw if his hello, wela the fact that he said her name, or just cuz she heard his voice,, bs as soon as he answered the S started crying like baby. Her next line wasnt i miss u, wela how are u, wela how is ur life, wela ur happy.. Seeda she's like i wanna see u!!

I screamed NO, and if A heard it then im guessing he chose to ignore it becuz the next thing S said was the "parking lot of Hayat". She closed the phone, got up, and left.

Its been 2 yrs now, and they're still meeting up!
Its hard to reason weya S, cuz her husband isnt the affectionate type, plus he's never around.. always on business trips or meeting... but A's wife is adorable wayed wayed 7booba... i think i can knock some sense into him.. bs u knw he's the type of guy etha ur saying something correct, he wud lsn 3dl bs as soon as u say something that he finds hard to believe.. he'll lose interest and ask u to stay out of his life.

and i told them etha they wanna do this, then why dnt they get a divorce and just get married to each other. bs they're like la its not gonna work ou its easier this way.
Now S is pregnant... ou a7la shay she's like "im pretty sure the father is my husband"
PRETTY SURE!!!!!!
not sure.. pretty sure.

I didnt know they had even reached to this extent.. and i dnt knw waht to do anymore..
shud i just give up wela u think there is a way? I can't just stay still and watch this happen around me now can I ???


Any advice?

ok the story started out cute o very typical,

Bs sleeping with each other?!

plus adultery !!

I think they should both be mature enough to know ina what their doing is wrong, oo fog hatha '6lmaw 2 ppl ma3ahm who have nothing to do with this crap,

There's nothing their friend can do coz athnainhm still havent reached the point where they just have to accept ina this is life,

You don't always get what you want, so just deal with what you have!

When I first read.. I was like OH NO NOT AGAIN.

The thing I can't get here is that from the start you both know you can't get married, then why date?!

w al7een they are still dating!

All I can say is ed3eelhum el hdaya.. w kel shay eb eed allah.

If you tried and can't ed3eelhum. its all you can do.

At first I was going to say 3adi I know a sunni married to a shi3ia blah blah blah and my friend is half sunni half shia (its like i'm talking about race).

B3dayn UBAIHHH

Thats f&@ked up.
Really F*&KED UP.

The whole story is The Scarlett Letter-esque except this girl is married to ANOTHER man.

7aram 3layhom. Allah yhdehom.

HOWEVER, the friend can't sit back saying the above. Ma'dam you (ilfriend) knows the truth and these people ra7 t5theen min '6noobhom if you don't say anything. I understand it is a sticky situation bas you have to tell A.s mom or at least his elder bros. If you don't have the heart to do so, tell your mother. Good luck hun.

P.S. Cut ur relationship with S. & A. I'd also give them the ''disgusted/nasty look'' ymken it'll wake their conscience up shway.

Weither they were both sunni or shia. Cheating is cheating in both!

How could they?
That could never ever be listed under the name of love. That's disgusting.

They both are supposed to be grown ups and think of their own of the future of their relationship. So they wouldn't be both ended in hell or at least jail and live in shame for the rest of their lives.
