Exploring Quranic teachings in 'Lean on the Wind' - 4

In our ongoing series on Quranic lessons from the TV show 'Lean on the Wind', we delve into Atefeh's journey of self-discovery and faith, marked by opportunities and temptations.

Atefeh, the main character, is determined to follow in her father's footsteps and become a lawyer. She encounters an older businessman who offers her a job and even arranges accommodation, allowing her to leave the university dorm and start working for him.

Driven by ambition, Atefeh is eager to seize whatever life has to offer and is willing to do whatever it takes. This leads her to start lying and becoming more secretive to keep her family in the dark about her actions.

This part of Atefeh's story connects deeply with the teachings of Surah Al-Qasas (28:60) from the Quran:
