Sadiya Hafiz

Sadiya Hafiz is a minor character in QIA. She is Tasneem Hafiz's mother.
== Biography ==
Sadiya is married to Farhan Hafiz; together they have a daughter, Tasneem, and four sons, Shourav, Kameel, Tareq and Hadi.
According to Hafiz, Sadiya is the only person in the family who insists on calling her daughter by her first name ("Manchester").
Sadiya is known to be a staunch, overbearing and often unpleasant woman, though she ultimately means well ("Manchester").
When she was introduced to Hafiz's fiancé, Ted Lambert, Sadiya was immediately extremely hostile, as Ted was not a Muslim (at the time), and in Islam it is forbidden for a girl to marry a non-Muslim. Her behaviour led Hafiz to storm out with Ted, and for Ted to make the decision to convert to Islam so that they could marry after all. ("Denny")
When Hafiz and Ted decided to move up their wedding plans, Sadiya was distressed and make numerous complaints, but thanks to combined efforts by Hafiz and Geraldine Lambert, Ted's mother, she acquiesced and made only a minimal fuss at the wedding and reception. ("Life")
Sadiya seems to have softened somewhat over the years, and is known to dote on her granddaughter, Zoya. ("Tasneem", "Washington")
