Y is for Yumna

 

 

“Why is Bhabhi praying now? The panditji will be here any minute for the pooja.”

“She`s reciting a prayer for Ma- I think it’s called a Fatiha.”

“But why? Ma is a Hindu- that too a Brahmin!”

Yumna folded her prayer mat and smiled, “Are you worried that Allah will grant her jannant instead of Bhagwan welcoming her in swarg?”

    During the pooja, Yumna should light a candle also
