Human rights activist  Khadija Siddiqui has graduated from the prestigious University of London on Tuesday. Khadija who was stabbed by a class fellow 23 times has  graduated with a degree in law.The now advocate took to Twitter to share a picture from her convocation on Wednesday. "They plan, and Allah plans. Surely, he is the best of planners. Alhumdulilah Graduation! @UoLondon," Khadija wrote in her post. Many eminent personalities congratulated Khadija on her achievement. Khadija's graduation has come as a symbol of immense courage and valour, especially after she survived an  attack made by  class fellow Shah Hussain, who on May 3, 2016, in Lahore stabbed her in broad day light with a knife leaving Khadija with serious injuries and scars. Khadija then pursued a legal battle to get justice in order to put her attacker behind bars.Hussain was handed down seven-year rigorous imprisonment to Hussain after finding him guilty of attempted murder before being acquitted on appeal to the High Court. However, this decision was overturned later.
