Exploring Quranic teachings in 'Lean on the Wind' - 5

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.

In the unfolding drama of Atefeh's life, parallels can be drawn with a Quranic verse from Surah Al-Mu'minun (97-98), which shows the ethical struggles she faces as she navigates ambition and integrity.

Atefeh, determined to follow her father's footsteps and pursue a career in law, meets an older businessman who offers her a job and a place to stay outside the university dormitory.

Excited by the prospects, she eagerly embraces this new opportunity but quickly becomes ensnared in secrecy to juggle her new life.

The Quranic verse reminds believers to uphold truthfulness and integrity in all aspects of life and not to give in to dishonesty and deception.

Atefeh's journey mirrors this moral dilemma as she wrestles with her desire for success and the ethical boundaries she must navigate to achieve it.
