I read a story which was quite shocking tbh ![]()
Should I marry my dead love’s sister? - Yahoo7 Answers
Plz giv me advice. I am in tears as I write this. I am from Karachi Pakistan. I loved my next door neighbour. We loved each other very much a LOT since we were kids and we lived as neighbours since then.
Her sister was engaged to this widower bcoz that engagement was arranged by her parents against her will so she ran away with the boy she wanted to marry.
So to save the face of his honour my love’s father married her to that man against her will. I still loved her very much and I tried to visit her when her husband was not at home. She told me to not come and forget me because she was married now. So I gave up seeing her.
But one day I went to the hospital to buy medicine for my mother and I passed by a ward and say the girl I had loved lying on a hospital bed. She had BIG bruise marks ALL over her. She told me that her husband is very abusive and beats her a lot.
She told me that her parents had tried to visit her but her husband’s family did not let them see her. They embarrassed her parents and threw them out of their house, Her husband beat her a lot and she tried committing suicide by cutting her wrist with a knife. Her husband bribed the police with his sister’s gold to not make a police case against him.
After that I started visiting her again and gave her sleeping pills to give to her husband and his family so that they would fall aslep when I wuld visit her.
I tried to convince her to run away with me and take Khula. I said I wil put the Khula application in court for her.
Then the last time I met her she told me her parents were ill and they would not b able to handle the shame of her running away like her sister. So I promised her that I will marry her and we will tell her parents. Her in-laws were away in another city that night. But her husband came home early from his shop and found us together. He beat me very badly so I ran out.
I regret running away that night. I was not true to my love. I did not live up to her expectations. The morning after when I came home to my mum with bandages on my head my mum told me that her body was next door in her parents’ house.Her cruel evil husband burnt her alove. The police said he had doused her with oil and set her alight.
I could never forgive myself after that.
Now two years on my mamma keeps on insisting that I marry but I do not want to. I feel love stil for my first love. I can never 4get her. It would be an insult 2 her memory to forget her.
But her elder sister has come back. The boy she ran away with was a fraud who nearly sold her before she ran away from there. She changed completely after that. She has now become a very good girl and practising Muslimah. She is very much like the girl I loved. My mamma says she wants me to marry her.
I talked to her and she said she will put her hand on the Quran to prove that she did not have any type of relations with the boy she ran away with for all the time she lived with him. I asked her if she would mind my past feelings for her sister. She replied OK as long as you do not talk bad about my past too.
But I still feel guilty. I feel I am doing injustice to the girl I once loved. Is this wrong?
