Introduction: Maulvi Salim Sahib and His Family
Maulvi Salim Sahib is portrayed as a devout and respected religious figure who adheres strictly to Islamic principles. He has a young, innocent daughter named Sakina, whom he deeply loves, and a pious wife, Amina Beevi. His son, Faizan, works in Saudi Arabia and sends money home, but the distance causes the family pain. Maulvi Sahib is concerned about providing both religious and worldly education to Sakina, worrying about her future well-being.
The Shadowy Figure and the Monkey
One night, Maulvi Sahib hears a noise and sees a shadowy figure disappearing outside his house, causing him unease. The next morning, Sakina tells him she saw someone outside her window the previous night. Later, they discover it's a monkey that frequents their window. Despite finding out it was just a monkey, Maulvi Sahib is still curious as to why the monkey comes to his daughter's window every day.
Sakina Becomes a Hafiz Quran
Sakina successfully memorizes the entire Quran, becoming a Hafiz Quran, which brings great joy to her parents and the community. Maulvi Sahib emphasizes that the knowledge of the Quran should be implemented in life, not just recited. However, a change begins to occur in Sakina's behavior.
Sakina's Arrogance and Pride
Sakina starts to display arrogance and pride, distancing herself from her friends and behaving rudely towards them. She considers herself superior due to her knowledge and criticizes others. Her mother and father notice this change and try to advise her, reminding her that true knowledge should lead to humility, but Sakina remains convinced of her superiority.
Confrontation and a Drastic Decision
Sakina's arrogance escalates, even leading her to speak disrespectfully to her mother. Maulvi Sahib, witnessing this, decides he must take drastic action to teach her a lesson and curb her pride before it completely corrupts her heart. He overhears Sakina telling her friends that she is the smartest, the most knowledgeable, and the noblest and that she can’t marry an ordinary man.
The Marriage to a Monkey
To everyone's shock, Maulvi Sahib announces that he will marry Sakina to a monkey. Despite Sakina's pleas and the community's astonishment, he proceeds with the preparations. He explains to Sakina that her pride in her knowledge has led her to this humiliation, and this is a punishment from Allah.
Repentance and Forgiveness
On the day of the wedding, with the monkey present and the ceremony underway, Sakina is filled with fear and regret. As the marriage is finalized, she collapses and falls unconscious. Upon regaining consciousness, she is overcome with remorse and prostrates, begging Allah for forgiveness and vowing to use her knowledge in His path. Seeing her genuine repentance, Maulvi Sahib is moved and declares the marriage invalid.
Transformation and Humility
Sakina undergoes a transformation, becoming humble and kind. She starts teaching younger girls at the madrasa, answering their questions with love and without arrogance. Maulvi Sahib reminds her that knowledge is light but turns into the fire of hell when combined with arrogance. Sakina commits to remaining humble before Allah for the rest of her life. The story concludes with the moral that arrogance leads to destruction, and true knowledge should lead to humility and submission to Allah.
