Synopsis

Shahwais (Imran Abbas) is a handsome, rich, and arrogant businessman. He has a wife who is shown to be terminally ill in the show and is also older than him. Shahwais is a womanizer and does not like his wife. He constantly tries to get rid of her since he only married her to become the owner of her business and money.

At his office, he sets his eyes on an employee named Afreen (Sana Javed). Afreen is a beautiful, innocent, and noble girl. She is the apple of her parents' eyes and is the most respectful child out of four. Shahwais tries to pursue her and constantly harasses her. However, after getting rejected by her many times, he asks another employee, Kashif, to photoshop fake pictures of Afreen and make them look as if she is having an affair with someone. Shahwais tries to blackmail her and threatens to expose the pictures to her parents if she refuses his advances. Afreen realizes this and stands up for herself by telling Shahwais that she is not like any of the other girls and slaps him. She tells him to fear Allah's punishment, but Shahwais takes the remark as a joke. What follows in the series is the aftermath as Shahwais tries to take revenge on her by using the fake pictures and showing them to her parents. Afreen's parents are ashamed and disappointed in her as they believed her to be their most honorable child. They start to believe what Shahwais says and turn against Afreen. She is heartbroken by the fact that her parents were unable to see her innocence and trusted a twisted man over her. Meanwhile, Afreen's older sister, Tamkeen, who is a divorcee, becomes attracted to Shahwais. She breaks off her previous engagement with a teacher with two children and marries Shahwais. However, Shahwais is still attracted to Afreen and uses her older sister as a mean to get close to her. Despite the hardships in her life, Afreen does not lose faith is Allah and believes that one day her innocence will be proven and Shahwais will be brought to justice.

This drama depicts the harsh reality of workplace harassment and one girl's struggle and perseverance. It is also a reminder to people that Allah is always with those who put their trust in him, for he is the only one who opens the door for punishment, forgiveness, and justice.[1][2][3][4]
