Question

Summary of the kabuliwala in less than hundred words for class 7

Answer 1

Set in the early twentieth century Kolkata, Kabuliwala delicately explores the bonds of friendship, affection and parting in the relationship between a middle-aged Pathan trader and a five year old Bengali girl. It is a simple tale of a fathers love for his daughter and the transfer of that love to another little girl. It is a love that transcends the borders of race, religion and language.

Rahmat Khan is a fruit seller from Afghanistan, who comes to Kolkata, leaving his family and in particular his favorite daughter, Rabiya. In Kolkata he befriends a little girl, Minnie, in whom he finds a reflection of his own little Rabiya. One day Rahmat receives news of his daughters illness and decides to go back home. Being short of money he agrees to sell his goods on credit to increase his business. Later, when he goes to collect his money, one of his customers abuses him. In the brawl that ensues, Rahmat stabs the man. In court Rahmat states the truth in his characteristic and simple fashion. He is sent to prison. On the day of his release he goes to meet Minnie, but discovers that she has grown up into a 14-year-old girl that is about to be married. Minnie does not recognize Rahmat and realizes that his own daughter must have forgotten him too. Minnies father kindly dips into the wedding budget and gives the money to Rahmat to make the passage home to Rabiya.
