Anjum Hassan, story “Nur” from A Day in the Life proliferates the feminine struggles and multiple femininities wherein Nur, the focal figure sojourns variant places meets and various persons to trace her absconding husband, Salim. The story narrates an array of cultural and religious contours. Anjum highlights the cultural rigidities and flexibilities of the Muslim culture, and religious beliefs. It also shows that how men are important for women to live in parochial society. Nur is a married working Muslim woman who is in search of her husband, Salim with her childhood friend and neighbour Rebeka who is a Christian girl. Salim absconds by taking all her savings every time although, he returns after all the cash spent, but, this time he is missing for long. The story “Nur” is all about the ups and downs of a day which has been spent by Nur and Rebeka in search of Salim. The story presents the account of a day in the life of Nur and Rebeka. The present research paper attempts to examine multiple femininities and multiple cultures projected in “Nur”.
