Amani is Sultana's youngest child. She is sweet and meek during her childhood, making Sultana believe she may have been switched at birth. However, after a Haj pilgrimage, Amani shows her mother's fierceness by having a spiritual awakening and becoming an Islamic fundamentalist. She dresses in thick clothing and always wears her veil, among other habits. She begins to resent her family's wealth as a sin, and she unnerves her family by constantly criticizing them. Amani becomes the leader of a women's group that preaches the strictest adherence to Islamic law.
