Plane of Judgement”, Said Saleh.
“Ok! Let’s go”, I replied as I rose from my chair.
Naimah also got up along with the rest of the family, saying to me,
“I am going to go and visit the families of our children. Only your
children are allowed here with us in the VVIP lounge; however, their
own kids cannot come here. They are waiting for them downstairs. I am
going to go and meet them.

neither a jail nor a place to execute the punishment over here”.
“Even though there is no jail, you can still be punished. The
punishment is that you have to marry the abducted. To live with the
same woman all your life and that too in Paradise, is a severe
punishment in itself!” I said.
Nuhoor roared with laughter. Shaistah had recovered from my
earlier jibe by now; she smiled and commented, “You men are great
