Rahim Khan is Baba's business partner and good friend. Rahim Khan also plays an important role in Amir's life by being a role model and father figure to him. When Amir was a child, Rahim Khan encouraged him to become a writer after reading Amir's first story. Thanks to Rahim Khan's encouragement, Amir grew up to be a successful writer. Later in the novel, Rahim tells Amir the truth about his half-brother Hassan and helps Amir gain redemption by giving him the opportunity to save Sohrab from a dangerous life as an Afghan orphan. Amir is able to atone for his past sins by risking his life to save Sohrab, and Sohrab is given the opportunity to start a new life in America with Amir and his wife. Rahim Khan provided Amir the chance "to be good again" and live a guilt-free life by guiding Amir to Sohrab and continually encouraging Amir throughout the novel.
