Arabic Paper 2 WASSCE (PC 2ND), 2022

Question 3
Describe “the orphan” as stated in the book “Al-֜Abarāt ” by Mustapha Lutfi Al-manfalūti.

The book contains pathetic stories. The orphan was nurtured by his uncle who instructed his wife that she should take care of the orphan alongside their daughter even after his demise. After the death of the uncle, the wife changed her attitude towards the orphan and drove him out of the house.

Her action resulted in the sickness of her daughter and eventual death. The moment the orphan became aware of this, he became ill and instructed that his remains should be buried beside that of his uncle’s daughter. Those who answered the question performed very well by giving a brilliant exposition.
