There is a Zen-like calm around Fatima Bilgrami when she recalls her dream. “I saw the seven Qutb Shahi rulers in my dream. They were in a big palace with beautiful arches and were wearing the same clothes but slightly faded; They wore huge turbans and also jamas (robe, gown or coat). I also saw a table with many books,” she recalls.
