Worth reading. In this novel Bano Qudsia wants to explain the philosophy of Halal & Haram. Not only in food but every behaviour or everything of life i e even thinking or doing anything could be Halal or Haram. Even One's full life can be Halal or Haram. Book also supports the belief that impacts or effects of Halal & Haram continue from one to 2nd then 3rd and so on. At last, there is a comprehensive comparison between abnormality and super-normality or we can say between madness which comes from earning eating or living halal and madness which comes from eating earnings or living Haram.
