Momina on the other side is an exact opposite of Qalab e Momin. She just wants her connection with Allah strong but her worldly problems are not letting to live a peaceful life. Her brother’s kidneys are failing and she is helpless in doing anything for his brother’s survival. She is doing soap operas but she is not happy with her work plus she is not been acknowledged the way she should be.

Qalab e Momin has thrown a party at his house and in the mid of the party, his grandfather ‘dada’ arrives at his house! Qalab -e Momin is shocked and panicked to see him he is not expecting him he is more ashamed that he has not done any preparations as he knows that his grandfather do not like this dance party and he is religious. Momin’s dada is shocked to see a picture in his room instead of calligraphy and he learns from the servant that Momin does that before his arrival but this time he has not informed so he could not replace these pictures with his Calligraphies. Dada has realized that Qalab -e Momin is quite out of track and is heavily indulged in this materialistic and glamour world.
