Chapter 1: Zina, a bright and outgoing Biology major with a laugh that could light up a room, was always the life of any study group or campus hangout. Mohammad, a sharp and responsible Electrical Engineering student, had a calm presence that brought balance wherever he went. Their first encounter was subtle — just a casual study group with mutual friends. A few weeks later, they found themselves in the same student lounge, both helping mutual friends cram for finals. Over time, their paths kept crossing: at muslim club events, late-night library sessions, or just through the same mutual friends. What started as casual hellos turned into long conversations. Before they knew it, he was asking for her babas number. Together, they discovered a love for trying new things — whether it was snowboarding down icy trails, hiking through autumn-colored forests, heading to the shooting range, or just exploring every outdoor activity they could get their hands on. They became each other’s biggest supporters, growing individually and as a team. Now, with Zina continuing her journey pursuing dentistry and Mohammad building a career in electrical engineering, their bond is stronger than ever. They share dreams of growing old side by side, continuing to pick up hobbies, chase curiosity, and explore life with open hearts. And, inshAllah, one day they hope to grow a big, loving family — full of laughter, adventure, and just the right amount of chaos. Because together, Zina and Mohammad aren’t just a couple — they’re a team. A perfect match. A love story that started with a smile at Rutgers, and will last a lifetime. May Chapter 2 Begin.
