The novel "Zad" by Islam Gamal. A Quranic promise I leaned on during difficult days.. It took me further than I could imagine. I clung to it as if I had stumbled upon one of the secrets of this world. I revealed it to those I know, some took it, and some did not. I saw the change in the condition of the few who took it, and some told me what I had not seen, and the result was one: abundance of sustenance and increase.
