AKHTAR N JANJUA

Allah created humans from a male and a female and made into tribes and nations for identification. However the most righteous is the most honoured. No Arab has any superiority over a non-Arab nor is a White any way better than a Black. All created beings are the decendants of Adam and existence of Adam sprang from dust. hence all claims to superiority and greatness, all demands for blood or ransom and all false traits or trends of rule are false.

WA LA TAFFARAQU - 23

All praises for Allah Karim;  Whom we must worship for 'Him Alone' !

Darood-o-Salam on Prophet [SAWS] because Allah Karim  ordained us to do that !

Peace upon Prophet [SAWS]'s family, company, successors and those who follow his path.

Very sincere prayers for everyone !

This time the interval has been pretty long (۔ ۔ ۔ ۔تجھ سے بھی دلفریب ھیں غم روزگار کے) hoping that coming Posts may not take more than a week. 

In the Name of Allah SWT with His KALAM:
If any do wish for the transitory things (of this life), We readily grant them - such things as We will, to such person as We will: in the end have We provided Hell for them: they will burn therein, disgraced and rejected. Those who do wish for the (things of) the Hereafter, and strive therefor with all due striving, and have Faith,- they are the ones whose striving is acceptable (to Allah). AL-ISRAA (17) : 18-19.
Strivings of different Entities in Pakistan (since long), however, have generally been at a tangent to what Allah Karim wants us human beings to indulge in - (نظر ان کی ، زباں انکی ، تعجب ھے کہ اس پر بھی ـ نظر کچھ اور کہتی ھےزباں  کچھ اور کہتی ھے)

.......Let us continue with our description of Muflihoon as per Quran :
18.     They know that good and bad can never be equal; hence they are always good and with the 'good' while fear of Allah Karim remains their constant companion. AL-MAAIDA (5) : 100.
19.     They remain firm and steadfast in the face of an enemy and remember Allah Karim much. AL-ANFAAL (8) : 45.
20.     They follow the Messenger, fight in the way of Allah SWT with their wealth and person. AL-TAUBA (9) : 88.
21.     They bow and prostrate before Allah Karim; adore Allah SWT holding fast on to Him, Who is their protector. AL-HAJJ (22) : 77-78.
May We all be amongst those who 'DO GOOD, PRAY REGULARLY, PAY CONTINUOUSLY AND ARE ALWAYS CONSCIOUS OF ALLAH KARIM'S PRESENCE CLOSER THAN THEIR JUGULAR VEIN' Aameen.

زندگی آخر ھے کیا ?SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST

Salam and Dua.

I was just taking stock of the time gone-by and thinking what is this worldly 'LIFE' all about? 

Life has many dimensions; spiritual, worldly, mortality followed by definite immortality and many more. 

LIFE - Life Involves Fulltime Effort simultaneously on all fronts. The effort to survive starts in three dark covers and goes on till one is 'COVERED' for immortality. It is a tale of CONTINUED STRUGGLE (جہد مسلسل). It facilitates survival 'TO THE FITTEST ONLY' here and survival there too will depend on the FITNESS.

Who survies here and who will carry the day there:
Those who are conscious of themselves here and about ONE Who will Audit their accounts THERE.
They are ever alert, know their surroundings, strength and vulnerabilities.
They know the strength and vulnerabilities of all those who surround them including their own NAFS.
They develop and put into practice a very elaborate system of self appraisal and accountability.
THEIR STRUGGLE IS PERSISTENT. DEPRESSION IS NOT THEIR AFFLICTION, INDIFFERENCE IS NOT THEIR PASTIME AND THEY KNOW THAT "WINNERS NEVER QUIT AND QUITTERS NEVER WIN".
I came across this and I think it sums it all "Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up, it knows that it must run faster than the fastest hunter there is or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up and it knows that it must outrun the slowest prey there is or it will starve to death. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER YOU ARE A LION OR A GAZELLE.....WHEN THE SUN COMES UP, YOU'D BETTER BE FIT TO RUN."

EVERYONE - HAVE A NICE AND FIT LIFE

THE 'GALLOPING' SURVEYS

Salam and Dua.

Friends alongside routing killing, dying, indifference, callousness, disrespect for the rules, might is right, who cares (for anything), monstrous corruption,  astronomical lies and fully manifested 'law of diminishing returns', it is 'SURVEY TIME' in Pakistan. Every day 'the breaking news' tells us that such and such party has gained at the expense of others. A particular leader is in the 20th lap whereas his opponents are still in the 3rd and so on. Indigenous surveys favor a particular party where foreign sponsored give an altogether different picture. WHAT IS GOING ON FOLKS?
Surveys may be very genuine?
Is money making the SURVEYS go?
Is it an effort to influence the voters?
Is some 'Preemption' going on?
Is the ground being prepared to point a fingers on 'Certain Quarters'? (Who have amply displayed in the last Five years that they don't want to indulge in once favorite practice of 'indulgence').
Is this a precursor 'not to accept the results' if they are not to 'liking'?
Where are affected and concerned stake holders?
Any Comments please......


PAKISTAN ZINDA BAAD and its MEDIA OFF-COURSE.....

                                            LOVE FOR ALL.        AKHTAR N JANJUA

..........NO HALF MEASURES



  1. I FOUND THIS TODAY - ANY BUYERS?

    IF YOU’RE NOT ALL IN, YOU’RE NOT IN AT ALL.

    There’s something inspiring about knowing that you are going to die soon. That you are dying right now. It’s scary. But it inspires focus.

    It demands action, priority, and extreme behavior.

    You’re suddenly “all in”.

    Because you have to be. Life demands it. You die if you don’t fight with every fiber of your soul.

    It’s suddenly obvious. You can’t be kinda “in”. Or kinda sorta “in”. You are “in” or you are “out”.

    That’s it. The only choice.

    Everything else appears to be a choice. But it’s just your brain’s way of protecting you – by lying to you.

    If you want to be “in” all you need to do is act like it:

    Show up even when it hurts.

    Focus fiercely on the only thing that matters.

    Take extreme measures to make change happen.

    The difference is you. Your intensity. Your relentlessness.

    Your unapologetic quest for answers and better results.

    When you act that way, you’re guaranteed to do something incredible.

    Because you’re “all in”.

    Are you?

EXALTED STANDARD OF CHARACTER - خلقِ عظیم



All praises for Allah Karim;  Whom we must worship for 'Him Alone' !

Darood-o-Salam on Prophet [SAWS] because Allah Karim  ordained us to do that !

Peace upon Prophet [SAWS]'s family, company, successors and those who follow his path.

Very sincere prayers for everyone !

My last Face Book Status update read "LET US BE NICE AND KIND ALWAYS - THAT EXHIBITS OUR SELF RESPECT; as somebody said : "There is overwhelming evidence that the higher the level of self-esteem, the more likely one will be to treat others with respect, kindness, and generosity." SHOULDN'T WE ?" It got 'likes' and good comments and especially this one "It is nothing but sunna" inspired me to pen down this Post.

Allah SWT describes His Apostle SAWS as خلقِ عظیم in Holy Quran:
And you (stand) on an exalted standard of character [خلقِ عظیم]. AL-QALAM {68} : 4.
Allama Muhammad Asad RA in his 'The Message of Quran (page -883) explains the term as "describing a person's character, innate disposition or nature in the widest sense of these concepts, as well as habitual behavior which becomes as it were, one's "second nature" as a way of life.' He SAWS being the best model to emulate let us see some of the salient features we must learn to be amongst his true followers:
Prophet SAWS being on an exalted standard of character, we learn from Him sound morals and good character. We learn the value of being truthful, honest and trust worthiness. He never lied, cheated and always kept his promise even at the peril of His and companions life (remember few stipulations of Hudaibiya?), that is why He was known as AS-SADIQ and AL-AMEEN. He emphasized the importance of being truthful 'TRUTHFULNESS GUIDES TO RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS GUIDES TO PARADISE'.
He SAWS was never arrogant and displayed rare humility always. He never looked down on anyone and was ever Allah-Conscious. He was extremely kind, patience was one of the greatest virtues of his personalty and he possessed great tolerance. He never got angry whatever the circumstances. An ever-present smile was part of his disposition. Any one who came across him instantly fell in love with him. People loved both 'THE MAN MUHAMMAD' and 'THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD'. He himself liked to teach and asked others to do the same 'THE BEST AMONGST YOU IS HE WHO LEARNS AND TEACHES'.
We see in Him the great faculties of 'PERSEVERANCE' and 'UNTIRING STRUGGLE'. He taught us not to indulge in 'PASSIVE ACCEPTANCE' and 'GIVING UP'. 
He taught us to accept the fate as Allah Willed without ever stopping to wade through the difficult times with hard work, conviction and gratitude. 
He taught everyone to live upright, doing the things with the best possible sincerity of purpose and ability. He taught us that for doing our things we require no supervision as we have two supervisors, ourselves and Allah SWT.
He told his followers categorically 'NOT TO HARM OTHERS IN WORD OR DEED - HELP OTHERS ALL THE TIMES'. He SAWS said "IF YOU HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO SAY, THEN KEEP QUITE AND CONTROL YOUR TONGUE BECAUSE WORDS CAN CAUSE A GREAT DEAL OF HARM". He also said "WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN ALLAH SWT AND THE LAST DAY, LET HIM SAY SOMETHING THAT IS GOOD OR HE SHOULD KEEP QUITE". At another place He said "A MUSLIM IS HE FROM WHOM ANOTHER INCURS NO HARM THROUGH WORD OR DEED'. 
...................TO BE CONTINUED.
