Excerpt from the Introduction: Belkiz Taylan

On August 19, 2019, a major change occurred in my life. This is what I will try to tell you, in all honesty, in this short story. I am aware that there are many sisters who are and will be similarly affected and my primary objective is to alleviate the pain that could be endured by them. In reality, we are united by many trials and it is our responsibility to learn the best from them. Confucius explained to us on this subject: "No stone can be polished without friction, no man can perfect his experience without testing."

I testify that no one deserves to be worshiped except Allah Alone and without partner, and I testify that Muhammed is His servant and His messenger. May the praises of Allah be upon Him, His family and all those who follow Him in the path of good. All praise belongs to Allah, we praise Him, ask for His help and seek His forgiveness.
