VALUATION .....1

Salam and Duaien !

Life is Transformation ... Unthinkable happens, People from nowhere create history, A Muslim state emerges in the Land of Idols .... and then ..... Friends become Foe .... Lies become Truth .... Promises become History .... Resolve becomes Frustration ..... Movements Evaporate ..... Depression Rains .... Hope Dithers .... Denial Blooms ... Those who live in Denial detest CHANGE .....BUT EVERY DAY IS A NEW DAY .... CHANGE IS THE REALITY HENCE TRANSFORMATION INEVITABLE !

ثبات ایک تغیر کو ہے زمانے میں

So much has been happening in the month of January both internally and externally ... But focus is on INTERNAL .... TERROR, ERRORS, and FUROR :-

Demon of Terror which looked subdued in 2015 raised its ugly head again, targeting the unarmed peaceful and innocent children and masses ... EVIDENCING THAT IT IS AROUND AND "BEING FED BY THE ENEMY" whom we want to befriend unilaterally ... so much so that SM is filled with a story that WE ORDERED OUR HIGH COMMISSION TO 'SHUT UP' ON VANDALIZING OF OUR STATE OFFICES IN THAT COUNTRY .... Whereas some Mehsud is narrating the lyrics of the SONG OF BETRAYAL written by our hugging cousin .... and we are like :-

احساس میں شدید طلاطم کے باوجود

چپ ہوں، مجھے سکون میسر ہو جس طرح

Corruption, Tales of Terror, Sagas of Horror, Employment of Rangers and Derailment of NAP has suddenly ushered in a turmoil .... Well, well, well A Rajpoot can forgive alright but forget no way .... remember someone had threatened someone "I WILL TAKE YOU TO THE CLEANERS" .... and that someone was told to 'BE PATIENT' because that was the need of the hour ... he had obliged then but now ITS ANOTHER DAY....

[and what a travesty ...... those who were termed as underwear washing gypsies, law squashing intruders ... their demand of NATIONAL GOVERNMENT and their use of term 'مک مکا' is now echoing ..... بدلتا ہے رنگ آسماں کیسے کیسے ]

آ کہ اب تسلیم کر لیں، تو نہیں تو میں سہی

کون مانے گا کہ ہم میں بے وفا کوئ نہیں

...... AND THEN THERE IS A DECISION .... In our beautiful Pakistan everything is exceptional ... Laid down contractual period is 3 years ... the transformation should be a routine .... one goes after doing his bit and successor moves in quietly with decor and dignity .... does his thing and leave ... but if it was like that THEN PAKISTAN WOULD HAVE BEEN 'PAKISTAN' of the FOUNDING FATHERS and not of midgets on the display... کہاں گئے وہ لوگ؟

تو مجھے ڈھونڈھ، میں تجھے ڈھونڈوں

کوئ ہم میں سے رہ گیا ہے کہیں

For arriving at a decision, there are different ways and I do not really know which one he used to make what he made :-

THE CEREBRAL WAY ... Engage .... Evaluate ..... and .... Evolve ... 9 out of 10 times it will facilitate A RIGHT DECISION .... but 9 out of 10 times it will have the, ifs, buts, thens, hows and whys attached ........

THE GORILLAS WAY .... Chest Thumping, Heart Pumping and HELL CAMPING ... Decisions made with Heart without involvement of Brain may normally take THE TAKER to a pit right away...

HEEDING TO THE INNER VOICE ...... Every human is vested with the faculty of INTUITION ..... Call it KASHAF (کشف), INTUITION or GUT FEELING .... its the inner voice 'THE ESOTERIC POINTER' .... 9 out of 10 times it may turn out be correct ... ..

Hope, he heeded to the INNER VOICE ... GOOD LUCK TO HIM AND THE LEGACY HE IS TRYING TO LEAVE .... PRAY THAT 'THE ORGANIZATION' and COUNTRY are stronger, safer and Savor ....... once he leaves.

TAIL PIECE : PAKISTAN MUST UNDERGO TRANSFORMATION FOR GOOD. There are millions of Ex-Servicemen from Pak Army, Navy, PAF and Civil Armed Forces .... and most of us may not have more than 10-15 years active life. To show our gratitude to Allah Karim and His Benevolence Pakistan {whatever we are today from Soldier to a General we are due to Pakistan} ... lets step up and be counted FOR PAKISTAN ... ALWAYS PAKISTAN ..... The Ex Servicemen Society must be turned into a vibrant body and every single EX should be brought on board .... LETS HELP OURSELVES BY TRANSFORMING OUR PAKISTAN AND MAKING IT THE PAKISTAN AS DREAMED BY THE FOUNDING FATHERS ..... Pakistan is wilting, wailing and waiting for all true Pakistanis to GET UP and GET GOING .....

حضورِ یار ہوی دفترِ جنوں کی طلب

گرہ میں لے کے گریباں کا تار تار چلے

I sign off with following :-

When you allow wrong people in your House, Stuff will come up missing ..... Like ..... Joy, Peace, Love, Hope, Faith ......... (Yes wrong people steal these things).

THE CHANGE IS HERE !

Salam and Duaien ....

THE CHANGE IS HERE !

Absolutely correct "We have brought The Real Change in the Country".

Decades ago we had bid farewell to God Consciousness and any fear thereof ....

Those whom we feared ... Well we have managed to internally entangle them from Kemari to Landi Kotal and externally engaged them from Washington to Riyadh to Tehran to Kabul (Delhi we deal exclusively) and they can't do anything else ......

And icing on the cake is that their all achievements are 'ours' and our all failures are 'theirs' ..,.

So amass money through corruption, coercion and terror ... We have got the bill through ... Dry Clean It.

NAP ... Has never been our concern and why Charsada carnage should compel us to change ... Such incidents are a routine and 'THEIR FAILURE'..

So damn what if all constituencies being opened were OBs .... We are IN and have plans placed in our cupboards to remain around even after our departure from this world .... Till our great grand children we have finalized the plan .... SO YOU OUR SUBJECTS HAVE NO CHANCE...

.... And you think we suffer from memory loss and don't remember our promises about POWER .... we meant POWER which is now with us and not the God Damned Power and Gas etc which you misunderstood.... And why after all you require light and flame????

Come the time of Ballot you will damn well vote for us and who cares if you don't ... Our boxes will be filled anyway and you will have egg on your faces.... BUT DON'T YOU WORRY WE WILL GIVE YOU LOLLY POPS then .... And you will believe too like you have been since 80s ... YOU RETARDS.

..... And don't you dare to talk anything against anything we are doing ..... Forget about Mullah Burqa and employment of Rangers in 'our Pakistan'...

The list goes on .... Etc Etc .. جمہوریت بہترین انتقام ہے

A trend on Twitter reads .... Part II...

بھرے بازار میں جنسِ وفا بے آبرو ہو گی

اٹھے گا اعتبارِ کوٗئے جاناں ہم نہ کہتے تھے

DEMON's DANCE .... CONTINUES !

Salam and Duaien !

The enemy strikes again; Hope is killed, Dream is shattered, Future is crippled, Neros come out with their flutes, play the old tune all over again and life goes on ....

Just read a write up from a young man; which says it all :

سانحہ کے بعد سانحہ
آخرکب تک ؟
کیا صرف بیان دینے سے ،مذمت کرنے ،فوٹو سیشن کروانے سے دہشت گردی ختم ہوجاءے گی ؟
نیشنل ایکشن پلان پر عمل درآمد کیوں نہیں ہوا ؟
کیا سیکورٹی فورسز اور حکمران صرف کمیٹیاں بنائیں گے اور نونہالان قوم اپنی جان سے ہاتھ دوھوتے رہیں گے ؟
دہشت گرد تنظیمیں نام بدل کر کام کر رہی ہیں ۔۔۔۔۔ان کو بند کیا جائے گا ؟
کیا غیر ملکی فنڈنگ بند کروائی جاءے گی ؟
کیا اسلام آباد میں اقتدار کے ایوانوں کے قریب بیٹھے ہوئے دہشت گردوں کے سب سے بڑے سہولت کاروں کو گرفتار کیا جاءے گا ؟؟یا صرف فوٹو سیشن ؟؟؟؟؟؟

My friend, some day .... SURELY ONE DAY .... all of us, NO EXCEPTIONS WHATSOEVER, shall have to answer for our Complicity, Mal-intent, Indifference and Hypocrisy. {On this Day, We will seal their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will testify to everything they had done.} 36 : 65 .....

As for now, we can hide behind the steel walls of our Castles, Bullet/Bomb proof pricey Carriers, surrounded by human shield acquired at the lowest rate .... for us and our pets...

Whenever the Demons Dance, we can come out with our damned expressionless stony faces, issue 'filed statements', make 'usual robotic promises' and get back to our craft we are best at ... CLASS (Cheat, Lie, and Amass by Stealing and Scavenging).

ٓAs far as 'the subjects' are concerned :

اپنے رستے ہوے زخموں پہ چھڑکھ لیتے ہیں

راکھ جھڑتی ہے جو احساس کے انگاروں سے

For those whose charges put their lives on line 60/24/7 :

High time to shrink from the people who have tried to dramatize everything about ... Time to put the foot down or stick up for getting the NAP going without fear or favor, firmly.

Certainly you are looking into : Any act of terror (self orchestrated or perpetrated) across, sets in sympathetic detonation in Pakistan. Isn't it strange?

Nothing diplomatic or personal should take our focus away from our own vulnerable yards .... for those who show no concern for our miseries .... let them launder their own filth .... and as regards THE ENEMY ... Don't be over enthusiastic to embrace him, lowering your guards will send you into a BEAR HUG.

SUCCESS 'ONLY SUCCESS' IS 'THE OPTION' ... NOTHING ELSE .... Do whatever it takes to succeed.

ابھی تو ہم نفسوں کو ہے وہمِ چارہ گری

ہوئ نہ درد میں پھر بھی کمی تو کیا ہو گا

VALUATION .....

Salam and Duaien !

PAKITAN ... AND ..... WE

{Allah does not change men's condition unless they change their inner selves; and when Allah wills people to suffer evil [in consequence of their own evil deeds], there is none who could avert it: for they have none who could protect them from Him.} AR-Ra'ad : 11.

Last night during my routine dose of study, I dosed off into the World of Engrossment .... In an assembly of millions, saw a radiating, energy oozing, ready to take off but CHAINED body, covered with a slice of White and lot of Green ....

All simultaneously exclaimed 'WHAT IS IT' ....

'Don't you recognize me? I am your Pakistan ...'

'Why are you chained?'

'You know, after the Founding Father, the Kneaders failed to Knead me properly. I nursed them but they compromised me for their self centered petty gains.. They chained me to plunder, surrender and squander at will without any fear or fright. Some of them imposed themselves forcibly on me, others 'the enforcers' selected and subsequently you took over to elect them to lynch me.'

'Most sowed the seeds of dissensions, sectarian divides, ethnic prejudices, parochialism and extremism. Weapons like Kalashnikov, Heroin, Bursting Jackets, road side Explosives etc etc are their gifts; Deceit, lies, recklessness and unreliability, their forte. No holds barred corruption, extortion and corpses carrying sacks are their inventions..'

'..... And you my sons, you failed to check them and correct yourself in making the right choices ....

'So you are unfortunate .... Why don't you resign to the fate?' We said.

.... Smiling affectionately, speaking lovingly Pakistan said :

NO I AM NOT UNFORTUNATE ...

AND WHAT YOU SEE IS NOT MY FATE .....

IF ONLY YOU REALIZE THAT, YOU ARE THE ONE I DEPEND UPON AND YOUR 'SUBMISSIVE CHARACTER' and 'SILENT SPECTATOR' mold is the sole reason of my sufferings.

I still can compete with the very best there is ... but someone will have to remove my CHAINS;

Defer personal gains;

Relieve my miseries and pains ...... and let the ...

Love Glow;

Brotherhood Flow;

Justice Grow ... and .....

Peace Brow.

نہ یہ تقدیر کا لکھا تھا، نہ منشائے خدا

حادثے مجھ پر جو گذرے "میرے حالات" میں تھے

DUA ........... !

Salam and Duaien !

I was privileged to be one of the guest speakers in a seminar organized by Islamic International University Islamabad. I concluded my talk with a special Dua derived from different Duas of Syedna Shiekh Abdul Qadir Gilani RA. One of the participating scholars recently asked me to provide a copy of Dua to him. Gratefully I share Dua with him and other friends:-

بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم

یا الٰہی امام اور امت، حکمران اور عوام؛ دونوں کی اصلاح فرما۔

اِن کے دلوں میں نیکیوں کی محبت پیدا فرما ۔

اِنہیں ایک دوسرے سے نفرت و عداوت سے بچا ۔

اللہ کریم تو ہم سب کی ظاہری اور چھپی ہوئ باتوں کو جانتاہے، ہماری درستگی فرما۔

ہم گناہوں میں لتھڑے ہوے ہیں، ہماری بخشش و مغفرت فرما ۔

ہمیں توفیق عطا فرما کہ ہم ہر اُس کام سے رک جائیں، جس سے تو نے روکا ہے۔ اور ہر وہ عمل اختیار کر لیں، جس کے کرنے کا تو نے حکم دیا ہے ۔

الٰہی ہمیں گناہوں کی ذلت سے نکال لےاور ہماری پردہ پوشی فرما ۔

اپنے سوا ہر غیر سے ہمارے دل پھیر دے اور اپنی اطاعت و بندگی کے ذریعے ہمیں عزت نصیب فرما ۔

اللہ کریم ہمیں اپنے ذکر میں مشغول فرما دے اور ہر حال میں شکر ادا کرنے والا اور صحیح طریقے سے بندگی کرنے والا بنا دے ۔

لا اِلٰہَ الاّ اللہُ مَا شا۶َ اللہُ کانَ لا قوةَ اِلّا بِاللہِ العلِیِ العظیم

اللہ کریم ہماری لغزشیں اور غفلتیں کثیر ہیں، در گذر فرما ۔

الٰہی ہم تجھ سے ایسا ایمان مانگتے ہیں جو تیری بارگاہ میں پیش کیے جانے کے لائق ہو، ایسا ایقان مانگتے ہیں جس کے ساتھ روزِ قیامت تیرے حضور کھڑے ہو سکیں ۔

ایسی عصمت عطا کر جو گناہوں کی ہلاکتوں سے بچنے کا وسیلہ ہو اور ایسی رحمت فرما جو عیبوں کی گندگی سے ہمیں پاک کر دے ۔

ایسا علم عطا فرما جس سے ہم تیرے اوامر و نواہی کو جاننے کے قابل ہو سکیں اور ایسی سمجھ ہمارا مقدر بنا دے جو تیری بارگاہ میں مناجاتِ صحیحہ کرنا سکھا دے ۔

اے اللہ تو دنیا و آخرت میں ہمیں اپنے ولیوں میں شامل فرما اور ہمارے دلوں کو اپنی معرفت کے نور سے بھر دے ۔

اے اللہ تو ہمارے عقول کی آنکھوں کو اپنی ہدائت کے سرمہ سے مزین فرما دے ۔

اے رحمان ہمارے افکار و خیالات کو شبہات سے محفوظ فرما دے اور ہمارے نفوس کو اِن کی ہلاکت خیزیوں میں گِر پڑنے سے روک لے ۔

یا اللہ نماز کو قائم کرنے میں ہماری مدد فرما ۔

اے اللہ جہاں امید ہم سے منقطع ہو جائے گی اور جب ہمارے اپنے ہمیں قبر کی تاریکیوں میں اتار کر ہم سے منہ پھیر کر چلے جائیں گے اور جہاں ہم صرف اپنے اعمال کے رحم و کرم پر ہوں گے وہاں اُس مشکل گھڑی میں تُو ہماری طرف نظرِ کرم فرمانا ۔

اِلٰہی اپنے کمزور بندوں کو خطا و لغزش سے پاک رہنے پر ثابت قدم فرمااور زبانوں پرہر وقت وہ بات جاری فرما دے جو سننے والوں کو نفع پہنچاے اور سخت دلوں کو نرم کر دے ۔

یا پروردگار میری، تمام حاضرین اور جملہ مسلمانوں کی بخشش فرما دے ۔

آمین

SHARAF-UN-NISA !

Salam and Duaien !

Below is an update of Professor Mohammad Ijaz Janjua, one of the highly qualified people to talk about کلامِ اقبالؒ as he worked for a long time with late Professor Yousaf Salim Chishti on Iqbal. There is a great message 'in there'. I take this privilege to summarize the poem in English

وزير اعظم كى نواسى كى شادى خانه آبادى اسكے لیے خوشى كى نويد هو .اس كا نام كہيں مهرالنساء پڑھا اس سے پنجاب کے ایک حاكم نواب عبدالصمدخان كى بيٹی شرف النساء کا نام یاد أیا . علامه اقبال رحمة الله عليه نے اس کی تعریف میں ایک نظم قصر شرف النساء لكهى كمال كى :۔

خاك لاهور از مزارش أسماں
کس نداند راز او را در جهاں

أں سراپا ذوق وشوق ودرد و داغ
حاكم پنجاب را چشم و چراغ

تا زقرأن پاک می سوزد وجود
از تلاوت یک نفس فارغ نه بود

دركمرتيغ دو رو قرأں بدست
تن بدن هوش وحواس الله مست

خلوت و شمشير وقران و نماز
اےخوش أں عمرے که رفت اندر نیاز

برلب او چوں دم آخر رسید
سوے مادر دید و مشتاقانه دید

گفت اگر از راز من داری خبر
سوءے ایں شمشیروایں قرأں نگر

ایں دوقوت حافظ يك ديگر اند
کاءینات زندگی را محور اند

وقت رخصت با تو دارم ايں سخن
تيغ و قراں را جدا از ما مکن

مومناں را تیغ با قرأں بس است
تربت ما را ھمیں ساماں بس است

Sharf-un-Nisa was daughter of Nawab Abdus Samad Khan ruler of Punjab (Circa 1713) in Mughal era. All through her life she kept herself engrossed in reading and understanding the message of the Holy Quran. Her other love was Sword. As per her will she was buried on a high ground in Shalimar Garden and her Quran and Sword were boxed atop her grave. Saru (سرو) trees were planted around the grave and it is known as سرو والا مقبرہ -

Iqbal revered the lady and her resting place. He said that Lahore stood exalted like Sky being the abode of Sharf-un-Nisa. People do not really know her spiritual status. Though she was daughter of a Ruler but practically she was a فقیر ... She devoted her life to Quran and recitation and comprehension of the Holy Scripture was her blood line.

Her فقر will remain a beacon of light for all the seekers of truth.

She would always have Quran in her hands and a Sword around her waist. Namaz and religious rituals were her eternal companions.

She told her mother before passing away "that around Quran the life must be built and the Sword must always be ready to guard against the intruders. In this mortal world these items were my محرم and should remain so after my death .... bury me on the high ground and make a hedge so that no نامحرم sees my grave. No tomb and no light there, for me and all believers Quran and the Sword suffice."

May Allah Karim Reward her with the highest place in Jannah and May there be a whole lot Sharf-un-Nisas in the world.

GOODBYE 2015 ..... مرحبا 2016 !

Salam and Duaien !
2015 gets into the archives ... 2016 moves in quietly ....

May the new year be filled with peace, prosperity and opportunities for everyone. .... A door is shut .... a door is opened .... have to move in .... 'ENVIRONMENT' inside will depend on 'us'...(and 'US') ...... Prayers for all.

HAPPY NEW YEAR .....

Its all from رسمِ دنیا point of view, otherwise times, seasons; all things belongs to THE ONE ONLY and if we do the things as He SWT Wants us to do ..... THERE SHALL BE NO us, US, IS, we, they, no fight, no discrimination, no injustice, no might is right syndrome, ONLY LOVE, PEACE and HARMONY will be the rule ... but once we humans GO OUR OWN WAY .... THINGS HAPPEN THE WAY HAVE BEEN........ Will 2016 be any different?

Few verses from Syed Abdul Hameed Adm :

بہار و خزاں کم نگاہوں کے وہم
برے یا بھلے، سب زمانے ترے

بس ایک داغِ سجدہ مری کائنات
جبینیں تری ، آستانے ترے

بس ایک زخمِ نظارہ، حصہ مرا
بہاریں تری، آشیانے ترے

فقیروں کی جھولی نہ ہوگی تہی
ہیں بھر پور جب تک خزانے ترے

فقیروں کا جمگھٹ گھڑی دو گھڑی
شرابیں تری، بادہ خانے ترے

ڈھیروں دعاوں کے ساتھ
