Mahreen Part 1 Complete Hausa Novel

The Kingdom of Maabubi
 
It was a just kingdom under King Abdallah Umar Jamil II. He and his younger brother, Abdul Hameed Umar Jamil, were the only children of King Umar Jamil I and their mother, Princess Zainab. They grew up in comfort and care. After the death of his father, Abdallah—being the eldest—was appointed king. He ruled the people with justice just as he had seen his father do.
 
He and his brother lived in unity. King Abdallah had only one wife who was called Fulani, and they had two sons: Ishaq, the firstborn, and Khaled. After five years, Allah blessed them with another child, but the baby girl did not survive. People advised him to marry again, but he refused, despite being a king.
 
Abdul Hameed, his younger brother, had two wives and six daughters. The senior wife had five daughters, while the junior wife had one. They lived peacefully until the junior wife (aunty Amarya) developed hatred for her husband’s brother. She manipulated her husband, telling him:
 
“If your brother dies, the throne will go to one of Ishaq or Khaled—not you—because you have no sons.”
 
This poisoned his heart, and he eventually allowed her to take control of everything.
 
She went to her spiritual teachers and ensured Ishaq was sent far away. By that time, Ishaq was already married and had a son named Sadiq. Through her charms, Ishaq relocated to Australia permanently, without looking back at his parents or brother. Even phone calls from home could not convince him to return.
 
His father later sent Khaled to speak to him, but Ishaq said every time he tried to come home, something inexplicable held him back. The family resorted to prayers. During that period, Khaled also married and had a son, Maher, followed by Ayman. After seven years, Allah blessed them with a daughter, Manira. Ishaq too had another child, a daughter named Mahreen.
 
When Khaled heard of his brother’s new child, he decided to visit him—despite Ishaq never visiting Nigeria. He understood the strange situation Ishaq was in. After two weeks with him, Khaled returned home.
 
Seeing that Khaled now had a full family with two sons, aunty Amarya advised her husband to poison him. At first he refused but later agreed. Khaled was poisoned with the help of trusted insiders. He was flown to Egypt for treatment, but because the poison was strong, they said healing would take a long time.
 
His children returned to Nigeria with heavy hearts, leaving their mother and sister behind. Maher, who was almost eleven, took the pain deeply despite his young age. They stayed with their grandmother and continued schooling with emotional difficulty.
 
Maher excelled academically and became a medical doctor with excellent results. Due to his skill, many countries invited him for major medical operations. His father remained bedridden, with the poison still circulating in his blood. Secretly, Maher went to Russia and earned a master’s degree in Defense and Security Studies. His brother Ayman became a full lawyer.
 
Maher later joined the DSS secretly. His mission was to uncover those who destroyed his father’s life. Only his mother and brother knew he had a master's degree; not even his sister knew. Whenever he visited his father, he would tell him everything, but the old man could only smile—unable to speak. The lack of response pained Maher deeply.
 
Mahreen
 
Mahreen grew up not knowing any relatives except her parents and Sadiq. Many times she asked why they never returned to their country or why she never met any family members. Her mother kept saying, “There is time,” while her father would enter his room and cry without explanation.
 
Sadiq studied Microbiology and had already begun working, while Mahreen studied Criminal Law. After their final exams, Mahreen again asked why they had no family connections. This time, surprisingly, her father smiled and told her that after their convocation, they would travel to Nigeria to meet their people.
 
She and her brother were excited and went shopping for the journey. After convocation, Ishaq took his family to Nigeria. No one in Nigeria knew they were coming, so they hired a commercial car to take them to the palace.
 
The news reached aunty Amarya and Abdul Hameed unexpectedly, throwing them into panic and fear.
 
When Ishaq returned, he learned everything that had happened to his brother over the past 19 years. He blamed himself deeply, believing that if he had been home, none of this would have happened. He and his family cried upon seeing Khaled, who could not speak but only smiled at them.
 
They stayed one month before returning to their home. Ishaq refused to live in the palace and instead bought a house nearby. Within two weeks, they visited all relatives. Their only maternal aunt was Aunty Ummi, who had three children: Imran, Sana, and Nawal. Sana was around Mahreen’s age, quiet and calm, unlike the lively Mahreen and Nawal.
 
Mahreen now felt complete—she finally had family.
 
The Plot to Kill Ishaq and Sadiq
 
Two months after Ishaq’s return, aunty Amarya and Abdul Hameed planned to kill Ishaq and his son Sadiq so that Sadiq would not inherit the throne in place of his father.
 
During one of their discussions, aunty Amarya’s daughter overheard the conversation. Terrified, she secretly placed her phone under the door and recorded everything since she could not hear clearly at first. After they stopped talking, she grabbed her phone and fled in panic.
 
She was shocked—she always knew her mother visited spiritualists, but she never imagined they could kill a human being, let alone her uncle and cousin.
 
She cried bitterly, regretting being born into such a family. She knew this time she had to
 expose them. She could not allow such evil to continue.
