Never opt for science. Tum khushi mein science loge aur baad mein science tumhari le lega.. My sincere advise to all 10th standard students, don't opt for science.

(A/N: True and maths too! 😂).

10. What are your ambitions in life?

I just want to be independent n free. Most importantly I want to keep my husband happy always.

(A/N: Ma Shaa Allah!).

11. Most people loves to prank others so do you. Did you ever pranked anyone in your life? If yes, share it with us.

Innocent people don't prank others.

(A/N: I don't know why people think that they are innocent when they are absolutely not).

12. As a human we do things which makes us feel embarrassed so tell us about your most embarrassing story.

I don't wanna embarrass myself more by sharing embarrassing stories.

(A/N: 😂😂😂).

13. What is the most selfless thing you have done for someone? And apart from your mother, who is that person for you?

Well I believe good deeds should be between the person n Allah alone. I won't say I did for them. Allah made me a source to do that.

(A/N: Ma Shaa Allah! So true!).

14. Who are your most favorite Internet friends? Describe them in few words.

Well these people keep changing their usernames and I don't remember every person's name u see. They are so many princess, pearls and niqaabi's. To mention few, I'll say Taqi, Wasfi, Naaz. (No offense to anyone.)

(A/N: Looooooolllll!!! BTW, I am blessed to have you, Alhamdulillah!).

15. Which quality you dislike the most in the people and would want to change?

People who r judgmental. Well being frank I too sometimes do that but yeah it's wrong to judge someone without knowing them.

(A/N: True).

16. What are your ways of dealing with people?

Simple. Stay away from them.. 😂😂😂

(A/N: Lol! 😂).

17. Out of 10, how much would you rate your character?

Well scale isn't enough to rate myself.. 😉😉😉

(A/N: Ofc! ofc! Only jiju is enough to tell you how awesome you are, isn't it?).

18. What's the most important fuel of life in your opinion?

Being humble. No matter how others treat u, stay humble. It will automatically change their heart towards u.

And concerning my hubby, being a kid always. He keeps saying that he got married to a 8 year old kid... I trouble him to that extent... 😂😂😂😂

(A/N: Oh my gosh!! I pity him as he married a crazy girl XD).

19. Which reminder would you like to give everyone through a verse of the Qur'an?

Well I love Surah Dhuha the most. They are so many actually but whenever I'm depressed I read this particular surah.

"Na tumhara rab tumse door hogaya hai aur na hi tumhe chod diya hai.."

(A/N: Beshak!).

20. How important is it for us to balance Deen and Dunya?

Well duniya is trial so don't run after it. Hold on to ur Deen in order to please your creator and enter jannah.

21. Since majority of the youth don't realise their time of opportunity which starts from teenage, how prominently will you advice them to use it wisely?

What I have seen among teenagers is, they are hardly teens who pray five times a day. Stop wasting ur time on phone and its high time to struggle n make yourself worth and independent. Pray pray pray and pray. It hurts to see teenagers busy in dolling up their faces and tying Hijab in a fashionable way. Hijab is to preserve our beauty and not to flaunt it in different ways.

(A/N: True!).

22. According to you, how necessary is it for one to stay disciplined? Don't you feel people lack the Sunnah lifestyle which should be brought back?

Yeah. We Muslims have forgotten sunnah which our prophet used to practice. Leave alone doing little sunnah, people don't even pray sunnah namaz before fardh. These little things will only take us to jannah.

23. Name some Sunnah lifestyle which you follow?

Sitting n drinking water, covering my hair before going to washroom and many other things.

(A/N: Ma Shaa Allah!).

24. How responsible are you as a person? And what is your opinion on it being the most essential part of one's life?

Well I'm learning to be responsible enough. I don't know about others but it's very essential for me since I am the eldest bahu and I have to look after everyone. We live in a joint family.

(A/N: Ma Shaa Allah!).

25. What message would you like to give to those who play blame game? Don't you think one should take full responsibility over their wrong?

It's really important to overlook such things. Blaming each other won't work in any relationship. It's better we apologize even if we are on the right side. Relationship is more important than ego. Value it.

26. What would you like to do in your leisure time?

Get bored. What can one do in leisure time. Use phone and waste more time and then get bored and sleep. 😂😂😂

28. How do you feel being a Muslimah? And what are the changes you would like to bring to the world?

Love to be lost in forest with my hubby.. it would be a fun adventure..😝😝

(A/N: Oh gooossshhhh! Crazy girl!).

45. Would you rather have a five minute conversation with your past self or future self?

None. Whatever happened or whatever will happen everything is destined. I would keep it that way itself.

46. Would you rather, fulfill your biggest wish or resolve your biggest regret?

Definitely fulfil my wish and as far as regret is concerned I guess repentance will itself resolve it.
