Sajida and Hamida were two sisters — Sajida was the younger one, and Hamida the elder. Sajida was beautiful.
Their parents faced a dilemma: while there were many marriage proposals for Sajida, no one ever mentioned Hamida. Sajida was not only beautiful but also knew how to groom and present herself well.

In contrast, Hamida was very plain and simple; her features were not particularly striking. Sajida was quite lively. During their college days, Sajida would participate in plays; she also had a good voice and could sing in tune. No one ever took any notice of Hamida.

Once they finished their college education, their parents began to think about their marriages. Several proposals had already arrived for Sajida, but since Hamida was the elder sister, the parents wanted her to be married first.
