Zahra is a recurring character and survivor in The Last Ones. She is introduced as a newcomer to Victoria, but she was also part of the original main group of survivors before becoming separated from them. She acts a guardian and protector to Catelyn and her unborn baby.
==Pre-Apocalypse==
Details about Zahra's early life and life before the apocalypse are completely unknown other than she is a Muslim. Also, she was evidently injured at some point in her life as she has a missing eye, a large scar on her face and she walks with a cane.
==Post Apocalypse==
====Pre-Appearance====
Sometime after the undead outbreak, Zahra joined the main group of survivors led by Ollie Graham and was presumably with them for a short period of time. She became separated just before the group left for Winterhodge Hollow as she stayed behind and risked her life to save a pregnant Catelyn from a horde of the undead.
Zahra and Catelyn spent many weeks on the road together, where Zahra acted as a protector to her and the unborn baby. Eventually,the two end up in Summerlyn City.
===Season Two===
====Trouble Brewing====
Zahra and Catelyn approach Victoria, a safe-town. They're allowed in by Steph, who tells them to keep their weapons at their side. The leader Alexis Norton welcomes them to the complex and tells them they will both have to under-go a strip search in order to check they're not infected. Catelyn appears taken aback, but agrees. 
The doctor Richard Coleman attempts to conduct a strip-search of Zahra, but she refuses, only agreeing when Catelyn says she would prefer a female to perform the check. Steph agrees to do it. After they step behind the curtain, Coleman prepares to check Catelyn, but she asks if she can confide in him. She also promises him to agree that before he reacts, he give her a chance to explain as she has her baby to think about after all. Coleman appears unsure, but agrees and tells her he's listening. Catelyn then tells Coleman a secret he later shares with pathologist Michael Lewis. Zahra is aware of this secret.
Later, Catelyn tells Zahra she thought Alexis came across as power-hungry to her but considering she's set up a committee, she may have misjudged her. Zahra merely responds with "we'll see." The ladies are approached by Coleman, who wishes to talk to Catelyn alone. She tells him that Zahra "knows," meaning they can talk in front of her. Coleman says he has spoken to Michael and that he wishes to talk to Catelyn when the time is right and he also felt that what Catelyn disclosed to Coleman should be kept discreet from everybody else, including Alexis as Michael isn't sure what she would do if she found out. Catelyn agrees. After Coleman departs, Zahra asks if they can be trusted. Catelyn says Michael and Coleman seem look good men. Zahra admits it's not them she's worried about.
====Last Orders====
As Catelyn has a talk with Michael in her lab regarding her secret, Alexis asks Zahra if she ever speaks. Zahra replies "when I have something worth saying." Alexis gets angry when Zahra refuses to step aside to let her past. Catelyn then arrives outside and she and Zahra depart.
Later, Zahra and Catelyn are presumably inside their house and out of harm's way as Lorna infiltrates the complex and allows dozens of undead inside.
====The Stand====
Lorna enters Zahra's house to look for Alexis. She tells Catelyn her baby will end up dying as no child can survive in this world. She suggests Catelyn take her own life to spare herself the pain. Zahra, having overheard, angrily tells Lorna to leave.
After the situation at the complex is over, Zahra joins the other residents in clearing out the bodies of the undead.
====Seconds Out==== 
The following day, Zahra attends the funerals for the dead Victorians. During a leadership vote that night, Zahra refuses to participate. Just then, Blaine and his people enter and he reveals a new way of life for the residents as Alexis is now head of a dictatorship.
====Stranger at the Door====
Almost four months later, Catelyn gives birth to a healthy baby after being two weeks overdue and in labour for twenty hours. Catelyn tells Zahra she was right: it's a boy. Zahra smiles. Coleman reveals Alexis is on her way over. Catelyn tells Zahra to be nice. Alexis congratulates Catelyn and asks if he has a name. Catelyn says she had a girls picked out, but hasn't decided on one for a boy. Alexis says he's a little history maker as he's the first baby to be born in Victoria. She decides to have a feast in the town later to celebrate. After she leaves, Trudy says it was a nice gesture for Alexis to make, but Catelyn points out she didn't do it for the baby. Trudy asks what Zahra thinks, but she says nothing and walks away.
====No Democracy====
Zahra watches with fury as Blaine has Paul beaten in the middle of town for stealing from the pantry. When Bernadette plans an escape attempt and tries to recruit Catelyn and Zahra, Catelyn refuses to be a part of it, but Zahra manages to change her mind later when they discover Blaine has kidnapped young Shannon to try and scare Bernadette into submission. Catelyn is wracked with anxiety and isn't sure she can go ahead with the plan. Zahra calmly replies she will be there. This reassures Catelyn, who says she and the baby wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for her. She says if Zahra thinks it's the right thing to do then she's with her every step of the way. Catelyn tells Zahra she should speak more as she has a nice voice. A disgruntled Zahra leaves the room. Catelyn says to herself she took it too far.
The plan goes awry and Catelyn is shot in the leg by Steve. An enraged Zahra beats Steve to death with her cane. Catelyn is taken to Coleman for medical treatment while Zahra is imprisoned in a basement alongside Jasmin and Trudy.
====Let No Man Put Asunder====
After being locked up in a basement overnight, Zahra begins banging on the door. Blaine comes down and said when he told her previously to stop, he meant it. He tells her Catelyn is still being treated and refuses to let her see her. He leaves. Trudy tries to assure Zahra that Catelyn will be all right as Coleman is a gifted doctor.
====One Fell Swoop====
As Blaine heads into the basement to fetch Jasmin so she can become a spy at Midway, Zahra asks on Catelyn's condition. He insensitively tells Zahra she's dead. She lashes out at him but he kicks her to the floor. An outraged Trudy rushes to help her up.
====Now. Before. After.====
When Victoria is overrun by the undead due to Donna driving through a gate and luring them in, Blaine goes down to the basement where Zahra and Trudy are being held prisoner. Trudy asks what's happening. Blaine replies it's a long story, but Zahra's about to get filled in on the situation. He pauses, seemingly remembering about her need of a cane to walk. He therefore says to Trudy it will have to be her, and he marches her upstairs, with the intention of forcing her to lure the zombies out of the compound. Zahra is left alone.
====End of This Place====
When a final confrontation takes place between Blaine's group and the main group of survivors at Victoria, Zahra overhears the commotion and gunshots from the basement. Eventually, she is rescued by Coleman and Charlotte. They go to the infirmary where Zahra is reunited with the baby, whom Alexis called Stephen. Zahra looks at Coleman and demands to know how Catelyn died. Coleman admits he put something in her drip after Alexis ordered him to let her go. He apologises and said he really did try to save her. Furious, Zahra raises her cane and whacks Coleman over the head repeatedly, killing him. The group are shocked but have no time to react as a horde begins to make its way inside. Zahra, Charlotte, Shiloh, Angie, Diego, and Stephen head for the main gate, taking out zombies as they go. They meet up with Javier, Bobby, and Lydia-Jean and push on forwards but Bobby is killed as they successfully escape.
