Assalamualaikum Areej, I hope you are doing well. I just completed rereading Trust Me. Just like when I read the book for the first time at the age of 16, I read it in one go. I loved every part of it. It's so evident that you've put your heart and soul in it. 
          
          The story of Abeer and Azar with their strengths, struggles and flaws is an amazing read. Rereading it right now allowed me to have a deeper understanding of it. Your way of explanation and conveying the feelings of the characters was incredible. I felt what they felt. Thanks for writing such an amazing book. 
          
          I hope you keep writing your amazing stories.

A Sincere Advice for Us Muslim Authors: I pray to Allah for this advice to be beneficial for everyone. 
          
          Shahawaat (Desires) - usually a person knows what they are doing is wrong, whether it's in Haram relationship, Haram food or whether it's looking at something Haram. They know what they are doing is wrong but their heart is attached to it.
          
          Is this not the case with us authors? Subhan Allah. 
          
          We know free mixing is Haram yet we write it. We know any relationship between male and female is prohibited before marriage yet we write it. We know we should observe Hijab and all it's conditions yet we go against it. 
          
          My dear Muslim authors please pay heed, titling a story as 'Islamic Story' or 'Muslim Story' or adding tags such as 'Islamic' does not make that book a Muslim or an Islamic book. The content within it makes it. 
          
          We give our book a Muslim name or description yet our cover shows an image of naked woman from behind. Is this Muslim at all? Is this not disrespect of Islam? May Allah forgive us. 
          
          My dear Muslim authors, remember the Speech of your Lord: "He [i.e., man] utters no word except that with him is an observer prepared [to record]." (50:18).
          
          Everything we say, write, do and convey is being recorded. The two scribers leave nothing except they write every single thing. 
          
          Writing a book by staying within the boundaries of Islam will only benefit you as well as your readers, however, writing a book without being concerned with Islamic rulings or commands of Allah will benefit no one. It may benefit us in this world but what about our Hereafter? Are we really going to trade our Hereafter for this temporary world? 
          
          Last but not least, writing 'it's a fiction just go with it' or 'it's just a fiction' does not give us a green flag to write whatever we want. How can we neglect our role as a Muslim for mere romance novels? May Allah guide us to that which is right.

@reflectivewryter Ameen ya Rabb. Actually I've completed reading your story many months ago and it was the only story that met with my 'Islamic+Halal+In line with Laws of Islam' ! Alhamdulillah, may Allah grant you success my dear sister - I hope you'd write a story that benefits all Muslim authors and readers in terms of Right version of Islam - In Shaa Allah!

@reflectivewryter You are so right about this. If I write something which is sinful, I write it as a sin. For eg, if a character is drinking alcohol, the story condemns it & depicts it as a sin. Additionally, there mustn't be any explicit scenes between characters. I have written Trust Me with all of this in mind. There isn't any explicit scenes regardless of marriage between characters. The story is about abuse & faith. As I am a human being, I am prone to making mistakes. Thank you for your message because I just realised that the cover of Trust Me could be better. I made this digital art. It is of a drawing of the main character with thorns piercing her body. She is surrounded by flowers & her hands are raised up, making dua. The back of the shoulder & the arms are visible, I drew this with the intent to show scars & cuts on her body. Your message made me understand that it isn't appropriate. I will fix it and reupload. Jazaki'Allāhu Khairun. If you are looking for reading an Islamic story, that is actually spiritual, I'd suggest giving Trust Me a try. Despite the mistake in the cover, the content of Trust Me is very spiritual. May Allah forgive us all Ameen.

I knew how mad and irritated i got when i saw trust me stopping mid way. Coming here and telling you to update soon. Idk it was in 2019/20/21 year but still i don’t remember. After that I didn’t use Wattpad for long. Now I’ve actually got back to read some other book and got to know trust me is completed.. i was shocked and i read it from the start again. Trust me when i say I’ve never reread any book without skipping a word or two. But yours, it was just I don’t have a word MashaAllah.. Also it’s ramadan and i hope you’re doing fine. The parts of ramadan in the story kept me checking my regular habit too. Nice boook to get closer to our rabb. Teach a lot about handling pain. So that’s all. Would love reading your other works and see trust me in paperback too. Have a nice ramadan do include me in your prayers.

Idk if it’s a spoiler you can delete this that’s why in comment box, but i also wanted to see abeer and azar having babies and being mama papa I expected it a lot in epilogue but if you could extend the epilogue pls. Just my wish.
