Farah Ahmedi Short Story

Do you believe that Master Fard Muhammad is Allah in person? While Other religions say that God is not a man, so Master Fard Muhammad cannot be Allah in person, the Nation of Islam believes that Master Fard Muhammad is Allah in person. I do believe that Master Fard Muhammad is Allah in person, and most people doubt it and ask what evidence do we have to prove that, but despite what other people say I do believe that there is reasonable evidence to prove that because He had gained 10,000 followers alone in Black Bottom, Detroit, He took a man named Elijah Poole, who only had a third grade education, and taught him for three years, a knowledge that was so powerful, and He came to North America by himself to raise his father's people.

Through this inconvenient situation, they find themselves stranded in the desert. According to Farah Ahmedi’s memoir on pg. 11 (The Other Side of the Sky), “The gate to Pakistan was closed… Where would we stay? There was nothing here, no town, no hotel, no buildings, just the desert.” Soon enough, Farah Ahmedi spots the solution to the situation which is to bribe the guards with money. Unfortunately, Farah and her mother didn’t have the money, but luckily they find another helping and compassionate family that offers help to them. This generous family tells them a secret about a goat path that leads to Pakistan which smugglers use too. Based on Farah Ahmedi’s memoir on pg. 12 (The Other Side of the Sky), “The woman told us that her husband, Ghulam Ali, had gone to look for another way across the border. He was checking out a goat path that supposedly went over the mountains several miles northeast of the border station.” The next day, they set out for the goat path. The climb was long and exhausting including with Farah Ahmedi’s mother, which had an asthma attack which took longer and her prosthetic leg, but they preserved. Farah Ahmedi’s determination and the will to survive brought/lead to her success. Farah Ahmedi finds out that even in a grave situation, there are still kind people like Ghulam Ali. Ghulam Ali gave Farah Ahmedi a chance of survival and gave

In life, many things can drive us to undertake a mission and do drastic, crazy things to fulfill our goals. While we cannot truly understand what drives each individual to do so, oftentimes people want or need something badly enough to take risks. For example, Farah Ahmedi fought for her freedom by climbing a mountain on a prosthetic leg. Aengus searched for his glimmering girl from youth to old age. Rikki-tikki-tavi took on two grown cobras when he was still inexperienced. These characters, fictional or real, had different reasons and motivations behind what they did. Ahmedi sought freedom and survival and Aengus wanted love, while Rikki-tikki was merely following his sense of duty; however, all three shared a determination and ability to endure tough times to accomplish their goals.
