Life as a slave is extremely difficult, but even with her exhaustion and hunger, Rabi'a never forgets about God. She wonders why her life is so challenging, and instead of sleeping at night, she prays.

One night, the Lord speaks to her, reassuring her that everything in life, even pain and misery, comes from His love. Rabi'a promises never to doubt His ways again, and the light of God shines all around her.
