Several Tragedies Led to Arslan’s Own Revolutionary Future
While obviously very successful now, things weren’t always working this well for Arslan. In fact, by the time he turned three years old both his father, grandmother and an elderly uncle had died, leaving just a younger uncle to help take care of him, his grandfather and his mother.
At the age of 10, his mother remarried and family decided not to take him to live with her and her new husband, and Arslan had to live with his aunt, uncle, and grandfather. There were no other children there, and tragedy struck again two years later when both his uncle and grandfather died. Arslan persevered and passed his matric exams at 14, and at 16 he was studying computer sciences.
Then, another death at 16 when his last remaining relative, his aunt, also died, thus leaving Arslan alone in the world. However, he was not to let that define him and decided it was not the end of the world since he was still alive and knew he had to step out of his comfort zone and move on.
