Any resemblance to real persons living or dead or to actual events is purely coincidental. Previously on Diya Molana, in the story, double or nothing. Molana goes to Shazia and Zaid's home. The intention was to assist both Zaid and Shazia with the issues they experienced.

1:01While Zaid makes it very clear to Molana that he has no issue and that Shazia is actually the problem. Despite not getting through to Zaid, Molana leaves his number with Zaid to contact him. Zaid messages Molana later that evening asking him for money. He later messages Molana with concern that he urgently needs help. Today, we pick up the story where Zaid has come to meet Molana Khan. The story of the story. I'm sorry, Molana. You said you already helped me. Please, you need to help me. Why did you come? Hello, Molana with the life of Zaid. Come inside. What has happened? You sound very distraught on the phone and you're not looking okay. Molana, I spent most of the nights running for my life. Can I please get some water? Sure. I need your help, I really do. But I haven't slept all night. Will you be okay for me to just rest in hour? Please Molana, make me laugh while giving you all the stubble.

2:01I can't go home. I'm just going to close my eyes for a few minutes. Okay, should I tell Shazia that you are here? No, no. Just one hour please. I just need to close my eyes. Zaid, Zaid, you need to wake up now. No, it's been over an hour. It's been an hour already. I really just needed to put my head down for a bit. I had a very difficult night. Make me laugh when Anna. The other day when you came home, I was very doing this respect for you. I was going through a lot that day and it's not an excuse but I really am in a big jam right now. I reached out to you because I almost made a decision that would have ruined my family Molana. Thinking about it now, I am so ashamed. It's okay Zaid, we don't have to discuss this right now. But perhaps we can just start by having a conversation to see what's really going on in your mind. I don't know, I need to start Molana.

3:01I think if I really have to go to the route like what you were talking about the other day, I'll have to go back to the beginning. It all started when I joined my corporate job. I already had a taste of doubting money by investing but those were legitimate schemes. The first time I gambled, I remembered every day very clearly. There was a soccer match happening and one of my colleagues in assistant that I participated in the pool that they were doing to see which team would win. What made me and Zee? We are betting on which team is willing to work up. How much would you plan to put down? That sounds very interesting but how does it work? It's so simple bro, you never gambled before. I say it. No, not really. Okay, yes, how it works. So each member picks one team to win the work up. Everyone pays an equal amount, it's up to 500 and 100. All the money goes into one pot. If only one person picked the winning team, they take the whole pot. If multiple people picked the same winning team, the pot is split equally amongst everyone else.

4:03But that works. Dude, just deal in 200 bucks. I promise you it will be what you are. Nah, I don't know. Things are tight. I'm sort of like to hold out the month end. Dude, just imagine. If you win this, you don't have to wait till the month end. Come on bro, trust me. Okay I guess if everyone's doing it, why not? That was how it all started. I made money for the first time in that way. I didn't think anything of it. It was just quick money when ever there was any games going on. I'll be the first one to bet on them. So basically, the betting at the office became a regular thing. Gee, I didn't even realize I was doing it so often. Every weekend we were betting on something or the other. Whether it was horse races or any random games. We should bet on anything. You said, I bet you 100 bucks. You can't get that girl's number. Make it 200 in and I will convince her to go on a date with me.

5:05You are on. The bets we gave more childish things like taking 6 stick games of energy things to betting on doing dangerous days. I didn't think anything of it until one day. You'll see, you know, you're my main man. I bet you can't drink this bottle of alcohol for 1000 bucks. What? You crazy David. You know, I don't drink. Yeah but bro, I know if you Muslim guys would do. No, that's not for me. Come on, it's for 1000 bucks. No, it's not for me. Come on, don't be such a sportsman. All right, how about 2000? I don't know. After stakes, now I know you won't refuse. You sure? I can go up to 5000. That's my final offer. 5000. Drink it and it's yours. Hold up, hold up. It's a one thing. I will do it. So that's why you would do anything for money.

6:05Hey? 5K is 5K and I believe this is mine. Well the bet is the bet. Here you go. But now I'm thinking you are ready for the next level. At the time, I did not think of anything of this. I didn't feel guilty or paid. I was just so cleared, I made 5000 then. I never even asked a lot of the other for more for that. I just went on as if nothing happened. Of course I felt the effects of this. I couldn't go home that night, monana. I just passed out in my car in the office parking lot. I couldn't remember much of it. By looking back, I hate myself for doing that. Look, Said. Right now, I can see that there is so much wing on his shoulders. But remember, Allah SWT knows what's in your heart. I know at the time you didn't ask Allah SWT for forgiveness. But you can do so now. As long as you are constantly asking, our merciful Almighty Allah for forgiveness,

7:05He will hear you. He is a Rahman, a Rahim. He hears our sincere Tobas. He hears our sincere advise. And you will grant you ease in this time. Look. Right now, you might feel very exposed and very vulnerable. Because what you are sharing with me is very personal, very intimate. But I give you assurance. What you say to me is private and confidential, and you will stay with me. I appreciate that, monana. But you just got worse from there. I feel so ashamed to even tell you how my life went down, following the actions and the steps that I took because I wanted to just constantly make money. The quick way. You know, monana, each time I spoke to David and learn more and more about how easy it was to double money, I felt invincible. Like no matter what happened in this world, as long as I earn money, I was OK. But one day, I learned a very valuable lesson.

8:08David introduced me to a group of friends. They were regulars in a weekly poker game. The first time I went there, it was nothing like I expected. David, you are late. I keep telling you when you are playing at my table, I want the money upfront and for you not to be late. I'm sorry, Don. I just needed to pick up a friend. How many friends does he want to do the deal for? He doesn't want to deal. He wants to sit in this week and deal next week. Now, you want to make rules at my game? You know life piece of garbage. You come to my game and tell me what to do? Come on, Don. He's good for it. I'll give you my word. Here is the balance, Don. I promise it won't happen again. Fine. Because you pay up your balance, I'm going to let you in. But your friend can only play when he fronts 20 grand. Don, he will do this next week. Our deal is still on. If he gives me the 20 grand to join,

9:08then you are free and he takes your place. What's going on, David? You told me it's an innocent game of poker. Now you need to pay 20k next week. I'm sorry, Bro. I really needed to get out of the poker game. Each week, I end up losing so much of money. I ended up pointing everything in my house just to pay you back. That's all good. How could you do this, David? I don't even know these people and he seems super dangerous. If I have to lose it, I don't have money to pay back. What am I going to do? You didn't think about this? I'm out. Let me go. You are an excellent poker player. I've played with you and you always seem to win. I just felt that if you took my place, you would be able to win a lot of money. I'm sorry, Bro. I should have been honest with you. But the situation is such. I really needed to get out. And I know you wouldn't do anything for money. That's why I thought you'd be the best guy. I don't know. That seems a bit sketchy. You're in the game now, Bro. Don't say it's about the 20k. I'm going to help you come up with it.

10:08If you don't play the game, I'm never going to be able to get out, Bro. I'm going to lose everything I have. I've already lost my family, you know? I'm way too deep. Zaid. Zaid. The phone is ringing. Are you not going to answer it? I can't, Monana. If I think the score, I'll never see my chance again. What trouble could Zaid have brought upon himself? What does this mean for Shazia and Zaid's relationship? Will Monana Muhammad can't be able to assist him? Tune into our final episode of Double or Nothing Tomorrow in our drama series, Tiamulana. Four stories, one guide.
