What the tale is about

After school, Zehra follows an address and finds a magnificent mansion instead of the little hut she expected. As she explores its seemingly endless rooms, she discovers a mysterious chamber containing only a giant full-length mirror. The talking mirror, and later a talking wall, show her scenes from the childhood of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), including Halimah’s loving care and the losses he faced while still young. Zehra begins to understand that every creation glorifies Allah and learns to meet hardship with patience, gratitude, empathy, and fewer complaints.
