A Mother's Forgiveness

 

 A Mother's Forgiveness

Before his hanging, Muhammad Yusuf was asked for his last wish.

He requested a comfortable bed with a block of ice despite it being 

December in Punjab. The judge granted his wish curious sbout the 

Ice. Yusuf lay on the bed touching the ice and smiled as if reuniting 

With something long lost.  That night Yusuf told the judge about his

Past.He had killed his business partner over property but the real 

Reason was the partner's insult about his mother.Yusuf had driven his

Mother out of his house years ago, and she had cursed him saying 

He'd never sleep peacefully. since then, Yusuf hadn't slept properly.

The night he killed his partner he slept soundly for the first time. But 

The first time.But the guilt persisted.Yusuf handed the judge a letter

From his mother, written before she died. she wrote that she'd forgive

him and remembered putting ice on his forehead when he was a child

To soothe him.Yusuf toched the ice tears streaming down his face.He

Fell asleep finally at peace. The next morning he was hanged while 

Still sleeping.  The judge noted that Yusuf died peacefully but he 

Knew yusuf had finally found his mother's love and forgiveness.
