A girl from the governorate of Ibb Alia Muhammad, married a young man from Mocha about twelve years ago, and his financial situation was very difficult, as he is not an employee and he does not have any profession, as is the case of many people, and all he is able to do is work in the field of construction with wages daily, which is irregular and subject to market fluctuations.
That young girl remained in one room with her husband until they had four daughters, then the situation was not only difficult, but unbearable, and when she became pregnant with her fifth child, she burst into tears, as the only room designated for them as housing began to become more narrow, and so she decided to come out of that difficult situation
Initially she collected a small amount of the proceeds from her husband's work, and began selling simple things, and after two years she bought her husband a used motorbike, so he was working on it from early morning until evening.
At the end of each day, Alia was putting part of what he earns to save, and when months later found that what was saved was an appropriate amount, she began expanding business and taking the sale as a major business.
Alia chose the timing of the start of the school year as a starting point for her, so she asked her husband about this and went on sale in front of a school.
"I still remember the embarrassment that I was feeling that day, but I said to myself," Selling is not a shame, it is more honorable than begging or continuing in the situation we were in. "
She added: "Those words were enough to restore the spirit to me, so I continued to work for years to find myself able to build an additional room and a hall that would remove from us the distress that we were suffering from."
Alia concludes her speech to the NewsYemen editor, saying, while referring to her child, "I feel that God has blessed us after having this son, I was afraid of his coming, but God has granted us livelihood with the birth of his birth, as if he wanted us to remember the Almighty saying: {We bless you and them}.
