Eid Mubarak to everyone. Sorry couldnt wish ya all earlier have been all tied up with the Eid jiggies :P. Had a good tyme, not the best but Im blessed that I have some good people to share my good times with :) All the rituals were followed as on every Eid. The Sheer Khurma, Mehndi, Pulao Biryani and etc etc :P Had my Wallet filled with Eidis ;) as what else are Eids for, and these Eidis are for just a few more years as sooner we will be passing on Eidis instead of having em :( but not really we alhumduliAllah have our elder's shelters over our head and their Eidis ofcourse :P



On this day I would love to share it with those who really dont have the opportunity or the resources to enjoy a fun filled Eid, being far from my land I feel a bit tied up as for how to help my people when they need to be happy, but soon ill be sharing some time with the people who really need it back in my homeland :). May Allah bless our people, Our Ummah, Our Nation and its superiors who are the bearers of our Nations Image and Hopes. Ameen

PS: This is surprisingly my 200th post :) and m glad It was on Eid!

PPS: The hands in the image on the right are decorated by me :D :D


EID MUBARAK !

آج یہاں اکیسویں شب ہے یعنی آخری عشرے کی طاق راتوں میں سے ایک رات، بس آخری عشرے کی شروعات ہوچکی ہے، یہی وہ عرصہ ہے جس میں ہر مسلمان اس ایک رات شب قدر کی رات کو تلاش کرنے کے لئے طاق راتوں میں خاص عبادت کرتا ہے. میں نے سوچا کے میں اپنے مسلمان بہن، بھائیوں سے وہ بانٹوں جسکا علم مجھے بھی ہے اور میں چاہتی ہوں کے دوسروں کو بھی اس سے فائدہ پھنچے . درجہ ذیل کچھ عبادات ہیں جو خاص طور پر اکیسویں شب کو کی جا یں تو اسکا بہت ثواب ہے.


سب سے پہلے فضیلت شب قدر

شب قدر کی عبادت ستر ہزار شب کی عبادتوں سے افضل ہے. حضور اکرم(صہ) ارشاد فرماتے ہیں کے میری امّت مسلمہ میں سے جو مرد یا عورت یہ خواھش کرے گا کہ میری قبر، نور کی روشنی سے منور ہو تو اسے چاہیے کے وہ ماہ رمضان کی شب قدروں میں کثرت سے عبادت کرے تاکہ ان مبارک اور متبرک راتوں کی عبادت سے باری تعالی اس کہ نامہ اعمال سے برائیاں مٹا کر نیکیوں کا ثواب عطا فرماے


١- پہلی شب قدر یعنی ماہ رمضان المبارک کی اکیسویں تاریخ بعد نماز وعشاء تراویح چار رکعت نفل نماز دو سلام سے پڑھے، ہر رکعت میں سورة فاتحہ کے بعد سورة القدر ایک مرتبہ اور سورة اخلاص ایک مرتبہ پڑھنی ہے .

فضیلت
بعد سلام ستر مرتبہ درود شریف پرھنے- انشا الله اس نفل نماز کے پڑھنے والے کے حق میں فرشتے دعا مغفرت کریں گے

٢- رمضان المبارک کی پہلے شب قدر کو بعد نماز عشاء َو تراویح دو رکعت نفل نماز پڑھے، ہر رکعت ،میں سورة فاتحہ کے بعد سورة القدر ایک مرتبہ، سورة اخلاص تین مرتبہ پڑھنی ہے -

فضیلت
بعد نماز ستر مرتبہ استغفار پڑھے، انشا الله, الله اس نفل نماز اور شب قدر کی برکت سے باری تعالی اس کی بخشش فرمایں گے.

٣- ماہ رمضان کی اکیسویں شب کو بعد نماز عشاء و تراویح اکیس مرتبہ سورة القدر پڑھنا بھی بہت افضل ہے

میں امید کرتی ہوں کے اسکے پڑھنے سے نہ صرف مجہے بلکے دوسروں کو بھی فائدہ ہو

انشا الله

Am I an Orthodox or an Islamic Extremist??

I dont know If its just Me or is it like m happened to see these videos one after the other that is making me think what is going on with all of this. Pakistani's are wanting to bring the NY underground stuff to Pakistan's major cities. They want to see that part of the super powers that the NYorkers themselves dont really like much. I happened to come across this video in which the underground Night-Club scene has been shown and it isnt a hidden video its an open count video, nobody is hiding except for a few , infact they are happy in sharing their views. The owner of the night club wants to have NY in Karachi, he wanted to smell that smell in the streets of Karachi. The smell of what? Cocaine, Beer, Vine, n all that stuff?? I soo wanted to beat all them up, yeah some what like Talbanized woman or like ones from lal- Masjid I wanted to have a long bamboo stick and wanted to slash their flesh off of em. That makes me an Islamic Extremist, than yes I would love to. The girl who takes the cameraman into the club gives the viewers the intro that.....


"Its kinda good it has a good feeling to it,the thing we can do on a FRIDAY night"
Now what the hell do we do on a Friday Night, yeah we party hard, we dope, we drink and then we collapse on a guys lap and he picks us up puts us back in our burkha and innocently takes us back to our homes.

Just tell me How on earth can that stupid hunchbacked DJ girl say that
"People come and say to us that what you're doing is Un-Islamic, Its not drugs its something else OOps ok can i say this, can I say this...."
and she placed the word Un-Islamic in quotation marks as if she didnt think that this was Un-Islamic. I was having fits after watching this video. I could clearly recognize people's faces even after that censor boxes that most of em were famous VJs/Anchors of our Pakistani Channels partying hard on their day off. Owner of the club is stating How he didnt want to choose this place as it had a disgusting look to it but apart from that he chose it and its kinda great inside tu Ullu kay Phatty(sorry for being harsh) He could have spent that money clearing that Disgusting street rather than making it even more worse. Commenting on his Guards Gun

"Ok so where is it made from emmm Its Made in OH SHIT its Made in China. OKie now probably it wouldnt WORK"
Yes for that ill place it on ur head pull the trigger and than we will decide if it really worked or not.

The fact stated just at the start of the video is right, indeed half of our population is under aged and whom are they following. Yes they are following these people who come on TV, play innocent as if they are unknown about anything in Life. The youth is blindly trying to follow their trends. Kids in schools and colleges spend more time in straightening their hair in the morning, finding the right gloss, or the right watch and pick the right car to take to school. Ok for now this would be for the upper elite class but for the lower middle classed children things are even worse, they want to do all of this but just because they cant they become rebels.

Im confused why the Govt and the parents arent having check on such things. The Anti Narcotics Dept of Pakistan are declaring they want to get rid of this ill form the country but what they are not doing is to find the roots from where they can cut down the tree. I even remember a famous Night Club of Islamabad the well known Cat Club. The gentry that is welcomed there are either Ministers, Govt Officials or other elite people. Darn It! What ca be done if the source above is involved in such a dirt, ofcourse than nothing can be done for the filth beneath.

The most wanted DJ of this club is Faisal Baig the son of the famous veteran actor Nadeem Baig, people are even dancing off open air all drunk irrespective who would be watching them and who wouldnt. Long ago I remember I saw an interview of Bilkees Edhi in which she shamefully told that often Police inspectors bring in girls that they have found drunk near the sea side and they pick them up and drop them off there coz they dont know where they belong. Bilkees Saheba told that she would take care of them over night and shamefully when they woke up she said
"Woh bus hamain english mai galiyan day kr chali jate hain"
Now somebody ask their God Damn parents where they were when their Girl didnt reach home last night!
Im ashamed to see all this and just wanna burst into pieces for nothing. If incase once in life I encounter such a personality I sooooo wanna slap him/her hard and feel good ...or or ..I would rather use a Made in China riffle for them \m/

Shab-e-Mairaj (27th of Rajab)

It is the day when our Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.W) went on this Miraculous journey through time and space. Saw with His eyes what can never be seen. The events that were taking place, saw people who were bearing the fruits of what they had sown. Our Prophet( S.A.W.W) saw what will be the end of everything, witnessed the most beautiful thing created by Allah known as the Jannah, the fruits and the gifts that will be the eternal property of the one's who have lived their lives with truth and dignity.

The Martabaat they will be bestowed with cannot be imagined, and cannot be compared with the deeds of this world. Saddening to know as much as our Prophet (S.A.W.W) saw the fruits of Jannah, HE also had to witness Jahannum, the place where the punishments cannot be even imagined of. How hard it would have felt to Him when He saw what would happen to those who will end up in Jahannum, for His love of Mankind he surely would have wished to save them all. That was it when he told the people of the world once he returned from Mairaj, about all what he saw both in Jannah and Jahannum. He told about the beauties that lie in Jannah, and about the people who will reside in it. On the other hand he clearly stated the position of the people whom He saw with his own eyes of what they were going through. He defined their state and the cause for which they ended up in Jahannum. It was hard at that time for people to believe as most of the sins didnt even exist at their time. But now a days everything that is cynical is right. And what is right is looked up as a SIN these days, thats the main reason that Now doing right is 80 times harder than doing wrong. You will find zillions of supporters for doing wrong and only 2-3 for doing right.
We have to stay on the path of the right if for sure we dont want to end up in those who were seen in Jahannum and certainly the women :s as thats the part that certainly freaks me out :(. InshAllah Allah always keeps us in His shelter and showers us with His blessings Ameen sum Ameen.

You alone exist, I do not, O Beloved!

The day this Song was released i found myself being in love with it. Not coz of the music bt I love Baba Bulley Shahs Kalam. Though its hard to understand but knowing punjabi I got a few parts of it. I got my hand over the Right lyrics and they r like this:

Bulley no smjhawan aayan behna te bharjaiaan,
Munlay bullehya sada kehna chad de palla raiyaan
Aaale nabi(saw) Aulade Ali(rha) noo too kyoun leeka laayaan
Jehra sano Syed saday doozakh milan sazayaan
Raaeen Saaeen subhni Thaeee Rab diyan be parwa yan
Sohiyaan pare hataian te kojiah lay Gul layaan
Jay tu Loray Baagh baharan Chakar ho ja raai yan
Bulley shah di zaat ke puchni ? Shaakar ho Raziaaan

(To admonish Bullah came his sisters and sisters-in-law,
Why have you brought disgrace to the Prophet and to the progeny of Ali?
Listen to our advice, 0 Bullah, and leave the hem of the Arain's skirt.
Let anyone, who calls me a Sayyiad, be punished with tortures of hell,
And let him revel in the pleasures of heaven, who labels me an Arain.
If you seek the pleasures of the spring season, become a slave of the Arain. )

I also got the somewhat valid Translation of it on that site where the writer said that

For a distinguished scholar, who belonged to the line of Prophet Mohammed(SAW), to accept an ordinary vegetable grower as his Master was a very extraordinary event in the social conditions of Bulleh Shah's times. It was like an explosion which shook the prevailing social structure. Bullah had to suffer the taunts and ridicule not only of men of his religion, clan and caste, but also of all members of his family. Bullah preached fearlessly that the guidance of a Master was indispensable for spiritual realization, and the caste of the Master did not at all matter in this pursuit. Even if he belonged to the lowest caste, his help would still remain indispensable. Thus, he proclaimed at the top of his voice that pride in being a Sayyiad would land one in hell, and the one who held the skirt of a Master like Inayat Shah would enjoy the pleasures of heaven.

My reason for posting this wasnt only to share this great stuff with my friends here but a sadness attached to it as well. M happy that Shoaib Mansoor took the initiative of releasing the film worldwide but he should have tken care of all the things related to it as well. The following thing hit me hard the moment i saw and heard it:



Is this the right way? I mean ok the song has been remixed fine with it, bt the dancing ladies over such pure kalaam, my mind certainly didnt accept that. Revealing that later this kalaam would be playing at the clubs and night bars (as it's shown in the video as well) and drunkards would be busy flapping their feet over it having no idea what they r listening to, my mind couldnt accept that either. Im sad and disgraced Shoaib Mansoor could have kept a look over it didnt he know what his film and the nature of the song was all about. It wasn't a love story neither a comedy drama, it was something different and film that was portraying an altogether different point of view. I know I cant just blame on anyone but there would be someone who could be asked for this.

Im Sad!.

Lutf-e-Namaz (Essence of Prayer)

Have u ever felt that essence of Namaz when ur alone, when there is no sound around u, no buzzing TV, no blats and flats inthe kitchen, no sound of kids screaming and running around u, no irritationg and distracting sound of people who r sitting right next to u and gossping about the latest family affairs. What is that feeling that fills ur soul at that moment, Is it like at that particular moment ur line is clear and there isnt any disruption and u have connected with Him, finally after so much of effort u have finally made it there, u have cleared the lines, the connection is clean and u can get the signals now. Just envision the peace that fills ur soul, the might that is filled in ur heart, the serenity in the mind, the healing in the flesh wounds, the healing of a broken heart, the aroma of the peaceful air. Nothing in mind other then the Praise of the Creator.

It may be sounding weird bt indeed this smooth connection does get abrupted when ur in the middle of ur prayers and there comes a deceiving sound from the next room, where noone is bothered to reduce the TV volume even knowing that ur praying, it does get disturbed when ur trying to pray and the people sitting just next to you are talking as if they would'nt be getting another chance to talk, the kids whose parents arent bothered enough to teach them that running infront of a Namazi isnt right. What about when ur in the middle of the prayer and someone gets upto u and asks to pass by a sign if ur about to finish the prayer and can attend ur friends call, or someone asking for u to nod for ur decision during the prayer if u would like to have tea after u finish.

Still apart from all of this is it possible to get a solid connection beyond this? How to still keep ur connection strong and bound with ur Lord after so much of disturbance? Do we have to clear our thoughts before we raise our hands for takbeer? so that the only sound that we can hear is our own.As there would be some way to reach that state where there is noone else but U and Him.


PS: A request for all! Try to be a bit more responsible and care for the ones who are praying cozs if u'd really care u would surely get a chance to do what u were doing later on.

Islamic Chain Letters

These days the thing that is really getting on to me is the series of Islamice Letters that r being filled each day in my inbox and i can't decide what to really do with them. Please kidnly anyone a Muslim ofcourse please explain to me what is this:


"Whoever Forwards this will get his/her reward in three days. One PersonForward it to 40 people he had 8,000 thousand, take prophet in hisBusiness. One Person did not believe this news and his son died. One kept Saying he will forward it today,tomorrow but never forward this News he died as well. PLEASE DO NOT THINK THIS IS NOT TRUE. PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE!"
What is the meaning of this cursified ending, is this the way to get Hasanats for your good deeds, and is it the right way? fwding Islamic Verses and Ayats bluntly to anyone, most of the people would be having Non-Muslim contacts ending up fwding the messages to them, we dont really know what the result would be, m not trying to portray that all Non-Muslims would regard Islam in a negative way, but my point is that fwding mails in this manner wouldnt make any difference either Take the above example whats the difference left then in a usual chain letter and that having Islamc Ayats, Hadiths n all, the ending is the same; "Ull die in so n so time unless u fwd this to so n so....". They have the same image os Islam as they have about other religions as that they are filled with hatred and that our Lord is ready to punish anyone who comes in his way. Just think about it once before u take a step towards what u think is right bt indeed it isnt.
Allah doesnt allow this at any costs, He wants His word to be spread through Love and Peace not through some idiotic cursed manner, and what level of Emaan is this anyways, believing in something that tells u that u will die soon enough after u have rejected and deleted the mail from ur inbox, is ur Emaan really at that weaker level that u believe in such stuff.
Regarding mails ryt now another thing just popped into mind and that is the spreading amount of Videos that include a sort of a miracle in which Quranic Verses are played as a background, by that day i happened to come across a video in which a cheetah hunts a small gorilla, which happened to gave birth at the spot, and to people's surprise the cheetah adopted that baby gorilla as his own and started to look after it, i know its a miracle but its meant to understand that this miracle is for all the Mothers who look after their children, a nature bestowed to a mother, to save and nurture a baby be it her own or somebodyelse's, bt yes ofcourse there are good and bad mothers too, i have seen a cat killing and eating it's own kittens with my own eyes, that doesnt proof that she wasnt the mother.
Why then why playing Quranic Verses over animal videos does that really make any sense, we being Muslims all know that all that is being happening on Earth is itself Allah's greatest miracle, we breathe isnt that a greatest miracle, any Muslim who sees the video can recall Surah Rehman's verses stating:


"Then which of the Blessings of your Lord will you both (jinns and men) deny?
Whats the use to play Quranic Verses over the video when most of the population wouldnt even get what th Ayaat is really saying as majority learns to read Arabic bt not all can understand. A translation would help, bt not over a Video a side description would be better. We cant deny from any of our Allah's creation, as all of them are unique and powerful in their own manner, they cant be subjected to any acqusition, and they cant be either created by any other superficial force. My request is to stop creating such mails or even if ur getting any of such kind and u want to fwd the word of Allah please erase such messages from the end of the mail, as the Word of Allah is for prosperity not for punishment.

Neglecting the Basics

The definition for tolerance as described, is the limit of a being to bear pain and hardship. As described by Islam is to bear and control things that can be ignored and can later be thought upon with a different perspective. Today i was having a random chat with my friend and this thing kind of struck my mind and some points ran through that we usually dont have time to think on. We talk about the concepts of terrorism in Islam, about hijab and violence, but has Allah Subhanwatallah created Islam on the basis of these issues, what i meant to say is do we have only these things to talk about when we are in a religious discussion with anyone. Deen has been created on the 5 pillars but these 5 are connected to millions of other things. Tauheed means declaring Allah as the only Creator and Hazrat Mohammad(SAW) his last Nabi, means handing over our lives to our Creator, the feelings of modesty and consistence is developed. Namaz saving our souls from disgrace, shallowness and greed. Zakat creating social balancement, and lastly Hajj an example of brotherhood disregard of the skin color or language, an event where u have to show tolerance and patience, u have to bear the weather, the difficult conditions of living in between so many people sharing a single tent with 4-5 other families, patience for swallowing so much going on with people belonging to cultures at miles distance from us.Toleration isnt easy yet there are different cases where people show different sides of the same coin. Ill give the same example as what i gave to my friend.
Take a situation of a Boss at office and kids at home. You can tolerate the un-neccessary scolding of ur Boss when ur at work, but u cant tolerate the screams and giggles of the kids at home be it ur own kids or ur siblings. My brain failed to process this WHY! just because we are paid by our Boss and not by the Kids. Why cant we think that there is some age difference going on, we were once kids too, we used to the same stuff ourselves and more over they are kids they cant judge the condition u r going through, they have their own world, they are Kids but ur Boss isnt one, he can process the whole situation but he doesnt, he can use his fat brain but he doesnt, he knows all and yet does the same. So whom should we be tolerating more the Boss or the Kids.
Then comes Sabr(patience), here in Qatar PS3 ranges till 2000qr and IPod touch for about 1800qr. Ok so why m i using these two gadgets just coz m putting myself as an example for the situation. So we could possibly wait for 6 months or an year approx to get our hands on any one of the two saving our pocket-money, penny by penny, so this is sabr thats good but we cant possibly wait if the car ahead is 5 secs late after the signal has turned green, we simply even cant adjust with the thought of waiting for our turn at some shop or Mall or to make it simple at a grocery shop. Why cant we get the thought that Sabr has been defined for some hard reason, there isnt anything in the Deen that has been declared just for the sake of declaration, each and every word has its meaning and it is true with its meaning, be it u keep it or throw away the thought. What would be it like if we being Muslims try to Sabr for something just once in a day and keep on increasing the duration. What really would it be like?

Respect, showing someone respect isnt that hard is it? ok forget about someone let it be our country, what would it be like if we started respecting our country, forget about the people too, coz if we would be only thinking and respecting our country the people wouldnt matter us much. As i believe without respect this place will become an even bigger hell. We have to respect other Muslims and even the Non-Muslims coz just like us they too have their own beliefs and faith and Deen says us to respect other faiths coz we r noone to judge. The judgement is dealt up there so be it that ur a Mutakki or a Playa the judgement is going to be UP there.

Guess it's quite a long essay type post haan, but wasnt anything irrevelant aint. The whole round in the death ring was just to request that Deen isnt just about Terrorism, Jihad,Beard and Hijab there are many things in Deen. try to look life from a different perspective try to think about other things from the Deen. Just want to add my own quote at the end that:
"Allah akharat mai yeh nahe pochay ga ke midan -e- jang mai kitnun ko mara, ya Osama kay saath mil kr kitnun ky khilaf Jihad kiya, woh yeh dekhay ga ke Jihad kay naam pr kitny bekasoorun ko mara. And moreover Physical Jihad is at a higher level the basic resides in tolerance and in patience, kay kitnun ko tumnay apni zaban sy mazour kiya."

Chasing the Shadow

What its like chasing the shadow, running after a thing that doesnt even have a physical existence. Chills running down the spine when u have just figured out something u have been trying to solve over ages.What is there within the body and soul that we keep on struggling with every now and then. It is like running in a different race, having a horse, that is jockied without a saddle. Trying to be hard and sometimes easy with it. Like playing a game blindfoldedly, not knowing what is there ahead,not knowing will the next turn be too deep, not knowing will the next step be the last one, will it really take u to the heights. What is there within the shadows that we r afraid of? Is it so horrifying? Is it something that makes us uneasy to think and talk about? Is it that scary?

A shadow is a man's innerself emerging in it's loneliness, yet a man can carry just one shadow and no two people share a single shadow. WHY? because, does anyone claim to share oneself with anyone? NO! so that's just the deal, when a body cannot be shared neither can be a shadow. Lets face it, how many of u out there have had those moments each night,with heads on the pillows, eyes stuck at the roof, and thoughts drifting inside the mind, what has gone wrong? what has left? where's that hole? whats the deal? So many thoughts and still the same struggle for the answer. The answer is in the truth that we are all afraid of and we all hide from. Cos we all know that, no matter how perfect we are in lieing to the outter world, inside we share the same dirty secrets about reality and truth. One can see the phases of a shadow spending long hours standing idle under the sun, still we wouldnt be able to figure it out. Shadow is your companion from birth till death yet he isnt there with you at nethier of the two events. It leaves u along with ur soul coz the shadow is the reflection of the soul, reflection of the being within.
The truth is, running the horse of life isnt easy, playing a game blinfoldedly isnt easy and yet facing our own shadow isnt easy either. Because no pain is as deadlier and nerveracking as the guilt within oneself.

Life itself is but the shadow of death, and souls departed but the shadows of the living.

Yusuf Islam [Cat Stevens]

I had just gone through the whole documentary upon Yusuf Islam formerly known as Cat Stevens life, and m so amazed to know that a man really doesnt know from where his life begins and where its about to lead. A person destined to rule the Music Scene forever all of a sudden turns his back upon his passion, his experiences throughout his life signalling him for what has to come ahead. Somethings do happen in life that seems to be strange, bt a man has to keep on shifting his paths till he gets a hold on his life. Allah isnt cruel upon us but sometimes he has to be cruel to show us how life can be cruel with us if he wasnt there to protect us, and if he doesnt shows himself up how can we really believe in his existence.
The supreme thing about Yusuf Islam that has inspired me was his will to stick upon his decisions, his decision to bid farewell to Music, his decision to help the needy, his decision to accept Islam and become a Muslim and most of all his determination to bear the most callous circumstances created for him, even facing all the misunderstandings that were born after his lecture upon Salman Rushdi.
The man has undeniably encouraged all those who think about doing things but are laid back because of some anonymous reasons. And to my belief it all happens for those who have set their trails clear and their minds focused on what they really want from themselves and this sensation can be felt at anytime of the life, and you cant keep on searching for clues here and there as life isnt a game show where you win if you get the clue as fast as you can, life is an experience that can be led by making mistakes and by learning from them.
I really would love to quote what Yusuf Islam had said:
“I am confident that, in the end, common sense and justice will
prevail. I'm an optimist, brought up on the belief that if you wait to the
end of the story, you get to see that good people live happily ever
after.”
