Nahyan
As the city falls silent at night, Nahyan sits by his window. A cold wind blows outside, and an invisible terror spreads all around. He knows that tomorrow he will have to make a big decision—a decision that could change him forever, or erase him.

Women's hijab
“Is the hijab requirement for women in Islam—is it derogatory?” This is a question that is often discussed in modern times, especially in the context of the feminist movement, Western human rights philosophy, and secularism. The usual complaint from atheists and non-Muslims is—“Islam forces women to cover their bodies, which is a kind of attack on women’s freedom and individuality. Why does Islam always require women to cover their bodies, not men? Isn’t this discriminatory against women?” To find the answer to this question, we need to go deeper into our Islamic beliefs—why Islam has given such a requirement, and whether it is derogatory at all.

India and Pakistan agree to a ceasefire?
In a significant development, India and Pakistan have agreed to a ceasefire along their disputed border in Kashmir. After years of tensions, cross-border clashes and numerous casualties, the agreement has raised cautious optimism. But the key question remains: Will the ceasefire last, or is it just another temporary pause in a long-running conflict? The India-Pakistan rivalry dates back to 1947, when the two countries emerged from British colonial rule. Divided along religious lines, the partition of British India created Pakistan, a Muslim-majority state, and India, a Hindu-majority secular nation. However, the partition was accompanied by widespread violence, mass migration and intense hostilities that continue to this day. The Kashmir issue in particular has been a major point of contention. Both India and Pakistan claim the region in its entirety but control parts of it. This territorial dispute has resulted in three major wars (1947–48, 1965 and 1971), numerous border clashes and an arms race, including nuclear weapons.

William Shakespeare Beyond the Stage: A Journey Through His Poems
How Shakespeare's Poetry Affected Later Writers William Shakespeare is world-famous as the greatest playwright of the English language, but his reputation extends far beyond the stage. His poetry—particularly his sonnets and narrative poems—exhibits a depth of feeling, mastery of language, and philosophical insight that has influenced generations of writers over centuries. While Hamlet, Macbeth, and Romeo and Juliet command theatre stages, his poems have quietly shaped the literary world, inspiring poets and novelists.

Story name: “Al-Asifah” (The Storm).
The night is deep. The snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada stand still, looking up at the stars in the sky. The wind blows in the valley like a gentle breath, but in that breath today there are terrible tears hidden. Because tonight, tonight is the night—when a civilization will be extinguished, when a dream called Andalusia will be buried forever.

Story name: “Ahad... Ahad...”
The night was deep, the sky of Mecca was filled with darkness. Silence was all around, as if nature itself was trembling with the arrival of some unknown truth. In the last hours of that night, a young black man was lying on a mud bed in a small hut, his eyes closed in silence. His name was Bilal—a slave brought from Abyssinia, who had no land, no inheritance, and not even his own life.
