A Daughter...
A couple made a deal the night of their Nikah to not open the door of their room to anybody who comes knocking in the morning for any reason.
In the morning the parents of the husband came and knocked on the door, the husban...d and the wife were looking at each other and as they agreed before , they didn't open the door.
After a while the parents of the bride came knocking at the door to check on them, the couple were looking at each other , then the bride dropped a tear and started crying , she said : "I cannot keep them knocking and not open the door, i miss them already"
The husband didn't say anything and he let her open the door for her parents.
Years and years passed and the couple had 5 children , the first ones were boys and the fifth was a little girl.
When she was born the father was extremely happy that Allah blessed him with her, and he sacrificed for her an Aqeeqa. People were so amazed with his joy and his happiness that they asked him , why are you so happy with her more than you were before with her older brothers ?
He answered simply : "This is the one who will open the door for me"
