Plot[edit]
The story is about a girl named Shehla as the female protagonist, who was adopted as an infant by Syed Shahab Shah. Since her father was a Syed he was chief of his tribe and a much honorable man. Shehla was brought up and pampered a lot in his mansion. Shehla grew older and was unknown to fact that she was adopted. She fell in love with Haider, her cousin and Shahab's nephew and both had the desire to get married to each other. But according to Syed family law a Syed man must marry a Syed woman and since Shehla was adopted, she was not a Syed girl. Shehla got to know about herself and felt so hurt and started doubting her own identity. She became depressed at the fact that her family is not her own one. Shahab marries Shehla with one of his friend's son, Malik Mansoor. Heartbroken at this, Haider marries Tahira (his cousin). Mansoor and his father were corrupt politicians and Mansoor was a psychopath. After he discovered the news about Shehla and Haider, his character turns out to be brutal towards Shehla, by beating her daily to bloodshed. Mansoor was in love with his mistress Shiza. Shehla got pregnant and gave birth to a daughter and she named her Shafaq. When Shafaq was born, Mansoor also won the local elections and became a minister, leading him to believe that Shafaq is a lucky omen for him. Later on, Mansoor turns out to be a good father but a worst husband. Haider and his wife also had a daughter but his wife Tahira died after childbirth. Before she dies for the sake of Haider's happiness, she requests for her daughter to be named Shehla. After 10 years Shehla was shown as a mother of three children, while Mansoor was the same who used to abuse his wife. Shela escapes the marriage from Mansoor, leaving her 3 children with Mansoor and his parents, of which the youngest daughter dies whilst left in the care of her siblings, who accidentally overdose her on medication whilst trying to treat her fever. Shelha moves cities and marries a Christian, called Peter. She later gets pregnant with their child, and discovers Peter does not want children and asks her to abort the pregnancy. Shehla refuses to do this and they divorce and she moves out. Later the drama is fast forwarded 15-18 years, and all the children are shown as grown up, with Shelha working as a teacher, Shelha has not taught her son William about religion and what he should believe in. He contemplates joining the Christian Missionary, to which his mother realises that she may not have raised him in a way conducive to Pakistani life. A chance meeting with the now grown up Shelha (Haider's Daughter) leads to a meeting with Haider himself.
