The Bird Above the Well
The Bird Above the Well by Areeba Abid Hussain It was December in Abbottabad. Winter had wrapped the entire valley in a thick white sheet of snow. The world outside looked peaceful yet eerily silent. Snowflakes floated down like bits of cotton, and every now and then, the sound of cedar branches cracking under the weight of frost pierced the stillness. Inside a mud house, a fire crackled in the middle of the room. The golden light from the burning logs danced across the faces of those sitting around it.

The Black Cat of House 450 By Farah Anees After finishing dinner, I tidied up the kitchen and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. “Oh no, it’s so late already!” I gasped, quickly grabbing the shawl from the sofa and tossing it around my shoulders. I slipped the house key into my purse and hurried out the door.

The Thursday Beggar BY:Khan Every Thursday, he would come. Qaniah would give him one rupee.

The Oath of Salah al-Din: Justice at the Battle of Hattin
The Oath of Salah al-Din: Justice at the Battle of Hattin BY:Khan For years, Sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi and the Crusader forces had traded blows and skirmishes across the Levant. Their clashes stretched season after season, a long war of attrition that finally built toward a single, decisive encounter — the battle that changed the map of Palestine and sealed the fate of the Christian kingdom there. That confrontation was the Battle of Hattin, fought on the 24th of Rabi‘ al-Thani in the year 385 AH, a contest that ended in resounding victory for the Muslims.

The Judge Who Feared None but God BY:Khan In the old days, when justice was considered a sacred duty rather than a tool of power, remarkable incidents occurred that continue to inspire us even centuries later. These stories remind us what true integrity looks like in those who hold positions of authority. One such tale comes from Yemen, where a courageous judge stood firm for justice against wealth, power, and even the throne itself.

Despite the danger, the thrill of adventure pulled us in, and we waded into the water, splashing and laughing.
