Rayya and Sakina

Episode 2

Raya’s husband falls ill, so she sends Abu al-Ela to bring Hasaballah from Alexandria. Her husband subsequently passes away, having entrusted his brother with the care of Raya and her unborn child. Hareedi advises the brother to stay by Raya’s side until she gives birth, and later suggests that he marry her—which he does. The child eventually dies, while Sakina marries Othman.
