Some woman enters the venue and says this is wrong Rukshar, you accepted this Nikah without me? All look on. The Woman enters the house, she is a young girl. All are confused. She greets everyone and hugs Rukshar, she says you look so pretty, congratulations. Zara asks who is she? She says I am Nilofar, Rukshar’s friend and Miraj’s Sister. Everyone greets her. Kashan says let’s prepare for Iftar. They all go. Miraj glares at Rukhsar and Nilofar.
They all sit for Iftar. Rukshar is about to break her fast, but Zara says one minute; Rukshar this is a special occasion, and Hamdan should break your fast. Hamdan makes her eat. Kabeer offers a date to Zara, Zara breaks her fast, and Zara also offers him a date and they break their fast together, Ishq subhannallah song plays… Kabeer is mesmerized by her. Rukshar glares at them.
Rukshar comes to her room. Nilofar comes to her and laughs. Nilofar praises herself, that she’s a good actress, did you see Miraj’s face when he saw his Sister coming out of nowhere? Rukshar says she has always been a good actress since their college days, and her work will start, once she leaves this house, she did the biggest mistake by bringing Miraj here, and she has to keep an eye on Miraj, keep an eyes on everything he does; where he goes, whom he talks to, and she has to stop him from hurting her Kabeer. Nilofar says what if he tries to hurt Zara? Rukshar says you just have to protect Kabeer, but I would like if Zara stays away from Kabeer, you have to protect my Kabeer. Nilofar says that’s all good, but let’s talk about business. Rukshar gives her 5,000,000 cheque and says this is the half amount of my dowry. Nilofar takes it and says now, you don’t have to worry, I will play this chess game with Kabeer, Zara and Miraj now.
Zara brings Kabeer to the Wedding stage, he asks what she is doing? Zara says earlier, they got married like this, but that time, their hearts and mind wasn’t aligned, but now, I want you to ask me the same question, Kabeer jokes about what the dowry money will be? Zara says 10,000,000 is fine but if he wants to give 20,000,000 then… Kabeer says no 10,000,000 is fine.
Kabeer starts their wedding, and says Zara Siddiqui, do you accept Kabeer Ahmed as your husband? She says I do, I do, I do. She asks if he accepts Zara Siddiqui as his Wife? He says I do, I do, I do. They both stare at each other with love. In lamhon ke daman mein song plays…
Ayesha comes there, and teases them. Kabeer stammers and says let’s go for Rukshar’s farewell. Ayesha says Kabeer, I want you to send Rukshar with respect from this house, instead of Shahbaz.
Nilofar asks Rukshar if she regrets leaving this house? Rukshar says house is not about walls and windows, and there is nothing in this house, except Kabeer.
Miraj comes there and glares at Rukshar. Nilofar says brother, you should know the manners of knocking before coming into the room. Miraj says to Rukshar that what is all this? When there was no friend of hers that introduced them to each other, then how is this Nilofar his friend?
Rukshar is about to answer him, when Kabeer and Zara comes there. Zara gives Rukshar an envelope and says this is her marriage gift from she and Kabeer, Rukshar asks what is this? Zara says it’s the amount she would have had, when she was the share holder of Kabeer’s project, and that 25%, it’s for her honeymoon. Rukshar is hurt and looks at Kabeer. Rukshar says she wants to give his 25% share of this Project to Nilofar, she will handle it now. Miraj is angry.
Rukshar’s farewell ceremony starts. Zeenat and Alina brings her to the lounge, Zeenat cries and kisses her hand. Rukshar pulls her in a hug and cries. All are emotional. Amaan shows a photo collage with Rukshar to her, Rukshar sobs and kisses his forehead.
Ayesha cups her face and says may God bless you, and may you always remain happy. Zara brings Quran there and says this is God’s pious book, it will guide you. Rukshar kisses it, Zara hugs her and whispers to her that your new life is starting now, so you live your life and I will live mine, she wipes Rukshar’s tears, while Rukshar looks on.
Kabeer asks Hamdan to take care of Rukshar, he nods.
Zara calls her Parents and asks them why they didn’t come for Rukshar’s wedding? Salma tells that her father wasn’t feeling bad. Zara asks what happened to him? He says he’s fine. Salma says he’s not fine, he is tired of the Sharia board work, and she and Kabeer are also missing from the board. Zara says we will come to your house and Sharia board too, she greets them and ends the call.
Miraj is searching for Nilofar.
Kabeer comes to Zara in their room and sees her preoccupied, he asks what happened? She makes him sit beside her and hugs him, she says father is not feeling well, she tells him everything. Kabeer says this is my fault, I am the Vice President and I haven’t been going, as I was distracted by my Project and Rukshar’s marriage. Zara says it’s my fault too, we thought to do so much for our nation, and got distracted with our things. They both say lets go to the Sharia board, they smile at each other, Zara tucks herself in Kabeer’s arms.
Miraj comes to his room and calls his man, he asks him to find out everything about this Nilofar! He finds Nilofar lying in bed, she says if you want to know about me then ask me. Miraj asks what she’s doing here? Nilofar points a gun at him and says who are you to ask me all this? Are you Shahbaz, Kabeer or Kashan? Miraj says he’s not them, but he was invited into this house unlike her. Nilofar says how do you know that I was not called here? Miraj says who will call you here? Nilofar glares at him and says you can’t question me when you are doing antics too, she gives him the gun and says keep it, you will need it to scare Zeenat and Rukshar. She turns to leave, but Miraj points the gun at her and shoots, but it’s empty, he is angry.
In the morning, Miraj comes to Kabeer and Zara, he says they have to meet the Contractor in another city. Kabeer tells Miraj to call him over here, Miraj says the Contractor is leaving for 10 days. Kabeer says but there are many things pending in Sharia board.
Zara says Kabeer, you go with Miraj, I will handle the work in Sharia board. Miraj says but I need Zara as well for the paper signing and the NOC.
Nilofar comes there and says you all go to your work, I will sign the NOC, right brother? Miraj says but you don’t know anything about this Project, first learn about it, then start the work. Nilofar tells the size of plot for the Project, she says there will be classes for 600 students, and 11 plots needs NOC. Zara says how do you know all this? Nilofar says Miraj told me all this. Kabeer says okay, then you handle all this work, Zara you go to sharia board, while he and Miraj will go to Kanpur to meet the Contractor. Miraj looks at a Servant and recalls how he gave him money and asked him to keep an eye on Nilofar.
Zara is going to the Sharia board. Kabeer stops his Car right in front of her and asks where do you want to go Madam? Zara jokes if my husband sees you, then he won’t spare you. He says I will deal with your husband, she says you dont know my husband. They laugh. Zara asks where is Miraj? Kabeer says he went to do something, we will pick him up on the way. They sit in the Car. Kabeer says give me a fare for the ride, Zara says ask my husband, Kabeer says I have heard that your husband is poor, she says you are wrong, my husband is very rich from thr heart. Kabeer smiles. He drops her off at the Sharia board.
Zara comes to the Sharia board and thinks why is there so much activity here today? Irfan addresses the meeting and says we have got a case from women, and since Zara is part of the board, so we want you to lead this case. One woman says many Women of the City wants to have the right to offer Prayers in the Mosque. Khalid says we should end this case, Zara make these women understand it’s not possible. Zara says I think we should listen to them. Khalid says but this is not the time to handle this, let’s postpone it, all the members agree. Irfan asks Zara to talk to the women and make them back out.
Zara meets the women and asks why they want to mess with the rituals? It will disturb the peace. The Woman says we are asking for our right, and women in Saudi Arabia and other countries are allowed to offer prayers in mosques, but here it’s not possible. Zara says what do you want from us? A Woman says we want to have right to offer prayers in mosques. Zara says okay I will talk to the board members. The woman head asks if they can trust her on this? Zara says don’t trust human, trust God, he will never be injust, I will research on this matter, all the women are happy with her and leave.
Miraj is with Kabeer, Kabeer says we have been busy in the house, but now, we have to focus on our Project. Miraj gets a call from his man that Nilofar left the house earlier, today. Miraj says to Kabeer that the Contractor has messaged me; he can’t meet us today, so let’s go back home. Kabeer nods and turns around.
Zara comes to one mosque and asks a man there, that if a woman wants to offer prayers in a mosque, then will it be allowed? The man says women should offer prayers at home, Zara says what if she is traveling and doesn’t have a home nearby? The Man says she shouldn’t question about religious things, and women should stay home. He leaves. Zara looks on.
Zara comes to the board members, Kabeer is there. Khalid says Zara is back, so I think we have solved this matter. Zara says to the board that I talked to these women; I even went to some Mosques and talked to people and I think… we should think about the demands of women and I think they are fair in asking for that.
Kabeer says women here don’t offer prayers in Mosque and there is a reason for it. Zara says it’s not about women not going to Mosques here, buts it’s about if they have the right to offer prayers in Mosque; we should give them the right, and then leave it to them. Khalid says so you are saying we should change our traditions? Zara says I am just saying to give this case a thought. Irfan thinks and says I gave Zara the duty to research on this case and since she wants us to think about it, then we will work on it, we will discuss this case later. Kabeer and others nod.
Zara is working with the women on the case to give them the right. She says I have taken the case to Sharia board hearing, but you can’t move back now.
Nilofar comes there and hears it. Zara says it’s about justice, they might try to stop us, but we have to teach them that our fight for justice is right. One woman grabs Zara and pushes her to the wall, they say that Zara is wrong. Nilofar smirks seeing it. Zara asks her women to not fight with the group against them. Zara starts to leave, but Nilofar comes there, asking how she got hurt? She says she just slipped. Nilofar says I was just passingby, let’s go, I will do the first aid.
