After office hours, I happen to be working out in the fitness centre and then to my room as usual. Situation forced me to go out than my regular activities to make a visit to Shifa Hospital in Queens Road, Shivaji Nagar, Bangalore. It is hectic to travel from my office or residing place to Shivaji Nagar….because of traffic, it takes 1+ hour to reach the destination, a mere distance of around 16km.
The moment I reached the hospital I felt something different. I walked towards the elevator and a man entered after me….I was thinking he may be going to some top floors. He greeted me and asked where I was going….I was thinking why this person is asking this to me…since he greeted me, I said I was going to third floor. He took me there and put me where I wanted to go. Still confused, I enquired the health of the person I visited for. He said, everything was well and satisfied and the first satisfaction comes here with the blessed greeting As-salaam Alikum W/w. That moment a lady fully draped in burkha with veil knocked the door and came inside. I just moved away thinking that she might be the relatives of that person….but her question remarked me and came to know she is a doctor. My mind was fully blown out…..asked my dude and heared that this hospital follows as per the Islamic custom in the work culture also. I don't have the word to praise them….but what triggers my mind is that a young lady with Islamic custom is serving the patients……a pride and dignity!
Really the Islamic saying "Ek beta padha tu sirf ek beta padha, Ek beti padhi tu ek khandaan padha" struck my mind on seeing the fully covered very humble or kind; don't know how to express about that doctor. Really something different I felt on my visit and feel that it is a good platform for women to be nurtured to their aim and a place of visit for them who are against women's education. May Allah S/t keep it high.
