Salam;
Friends, past week was eventful .....
Friends, past week was eventful .....
Friday, 14 August, marked The Independence Day. Celebrations were fabulous. People from all walks of life enthusiastically joined in to commemorate the history. FATA and Balochistan SHOWS were heartwarming. Karachi like past Eid-ul-Fitr was full of life. ARMY BEING THE FLAG BEARER WAS IN THE VAN GUARD. Cricket Matches at the Army Stadium and National Stadium 'SAID IT ALL'. Smiling COAS, Rocking Southern Command Commander, in control DG Sindh Rangers and millions rejoicing, denoted 'PAKISTAN IS ON THE MOVE' ... but ‘خدا واسطے کا بیر’ has no cure; Contents and Timing of an interview by a GOP representative to BBC was malicious AND ADDED BAD TASTE TO AN OTHERWISE GRAND DAY.
15 August late hours brought in a sad news; General Hamid Gul left for his eternal abode. One might have differed with his view point, undertakings and legacy but no one CAN DOUBT HIS 'PAKISTANIYAT'...He was a great Son of Soil and a Quaid-e-Azam idealiser. Meeting him was always a GREAT EXPERIENCE and LEARNING.
16 August witnessed yet another dastardly terror attack and yet another soldier sacrificed his life in the Line of Duty. Colonel Shuja Khanzada was doing in Punjab which no body else could do in years. Spontaneous outpouring of tribute from friends and foes tells us that he was a gentleman and a brave warrior...
MAY THEY DWELL IN JANNAH !
17 August marked the anniversary of General Zia and his colleagues ..... Zia left an ineradicable mark on Pakistan and its future ... His advent changed Pakistan and it has never been the Pakistan some of us knew prior to July 1977 and it may take generations to OBLITERATE THE CHANGE. The day also tells us how opportunist and forgetful humans can be... An ex MNA from Okara came to my place after attending ceremony at the grave of late Dictator and was grief-stricken on the pathetic show and thin turn up .... THE Beneficiaries probably now say Zia Who? بدلتا ھے رنگ آسماں کیسے کیسے
17 August also saw the CHANGE OF COMMAND at SCP. The new Chief Justice has already gone into the pages of history by DECLINING THE PERKS AND PRIVILEGES. May his decisions also be HISTORICAL....
...... and Dollar Fame Model delivered a KEY NOTE address at Karachi University ... WHAT A ROLE MODEL FOR YOUNG AND VIBRANT ??????? ITS JUNGLE OUT THERE ...... Mr. Chief Justice ............
Some Inferences from the Week !
Certainty and not the Conjecture should be the path we should adopt... Conjecture can be embarrassing for us and others and definitely ends in humiliation. {Most of them follow conjecture. But conjecture is of no use AGAINST THE TRUTH. Allah Karim is well aware of what they do.}
Death is the the INDISPUTABLE TRUTH ...... {Everyone that is thereon will Pass Away. And there will remain the countenance of Your Lord, Owner of Majesty and Beneficence.} Remembrance of Death can be a source of LIFE, LOVE and FAIRNESS.
Terror and Cruelty are Despicable. {The wrongdoers will meet the same fate as their predecessors, let them not ask Allah to hasten.}
Kindness and Gratitude are the Virtues of nobility....We must not forget Kindness of others and to be Kind ourselves ....{Shall the recompense of KINDNESS be aught save Kindness?}
Whatever the worldly status, be true to yourself and your Creator ... you will be rewarded. {If the faith is endeared to you, and beautified in your hearts and denial of truth, wickedness, and disobedience is hateful to you, YOU ARE RIGHTLY GUIDED.}
Corruption, Injustice, Denial of Truth and Distinctive Treatment derived from worldly power (and glitter/glamour) is A RECIPE FOR DESTRUCTION. {[But only too often] man destroys himself: HOW STUBBORNLY DOES HE DENY THE TRUTH!}. {Do not spread corruption on earth after it has been so well ordered.}
DUAIEN !
AKHTAR N JANJUA
