The Girl I Dream of..!!

The Girl I Dream of; in Nights and the days
I intend to love her; In a thousand of ways
I wish to have her around; What dusk, What dawn?!
Smiles, Laughs, "Wait and Fight", she says..

The Girl I Dream of; in thin and the thick
Her deep candid eyes; make my universe shrink
Her loud presence; at times, shatters my silence
Body depresses, Movement ceases, Can't even blink.

The Girl I Dream of; in serenity and in discord
In the midst of our hearts, I've wrought an accord
I seek nothing; naught but the pledge thee be mine
Thee be my aide; Solitude is mean, has to be deplored.

The Girl I Dream of, In heaven and in fire
What attracts me is her soul and attire
She is my only hope & beyond lie dark shades
Leads me through hard'n'bad, She is what I desire.

Birthday Confession

Just few Silly lines at the occasion which was supposed to be a Special one;

Behind all these smiles,
There exist the lies,
Truth never expressed,
But, the time still flies!

Hiding things from the ultimate,
What hurts, is the Penultimate,
Disastrous death, day by day,
Moving on, Trusting the fate!

There always comes a time,
When you're no more a Prime,
You lose, or may win, but you survive,
Whatever it takes, just climb!

Educated ? Huh

    I don't feel like writing something at the moment. It's not that I am running short of words or thoughts. I haven't wrote anything in like ages due to the prof which is just few days away. I am running short of time so won't be able to complete this post. Just going to outline few things which I've observed in past few weeks and are really disturbing for me. This scenario makes me ask a simple question from every sensible person around, "Where are we heading?"
   This is the only generation in the history of Pakistan which claims to be an Educated and awaken one, which I've started doubting about. Because they can't seem to justify their claim of being educated and sensible. Recently I happened to observe few Facebook conversations between the parts of this educated youth, Supporters of two different political parties and they were going mad at each other with no Morality or Rationality. Story of twitter isn't different from this. The worst of all is happening in Real social life. Two close friends going against each other on the basis of the politicial parties they're supporting, Two siblings sharing same roof going mad over each other due to difference of opinion and leaders. Same goes in education institutes and universities which is a very alarming situation.
    Supporting a political party or having a different opinion is not an issue. These phenomenon has been around for ages. What worries me is 'the way we are Expressing' ourselves. We have been feed with some non sense 'Freedom of Speech and Expression' theories. No doubt it exist but where is our Religion, Culture, Norms and Traditions? Where did the elements of Morality, Respect and Discipline go? If you know no such things and claim to be an Educated and awaken young blood of Pakistan, then I don't agree with you. For me or maybe for many others, You are like an Unguided arrow and Uncontrolled Missile who is himself unaware of his fate.
    I don't want to offend the readers but for me, Presence of such type of people justifies the kind of leadership and rulers we have. If we didn't change this Attitude then I wonder that time is not far away when this country will suffer due to this so called 'Educated Youth' and I pray such time never comes.

Regards,
And Please Wish me Luck for my Exams.

An Encounter With Sheikh Rasheed

   Couple of days ago, I had this interesting encounter with Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad, The Famous Politician from my own city Rawalpindi. I use to Like him a lot but then with the rise of PTI things changed dynamically and everything other than PTI was secondary to me. In all these times, I never thought about
discussing Sheikh Rasheed. But Now after August 13th, I was more inclined towards Sheikh Rasheed because his alliance with PTI is imminent atleast at his stage.

    So in this encounter, I started with welfare projects that he started in his tenure. He did ask
for suggestion and appreciated me for praising his goods projects. But my real tool was criticism,
I expressed myself openly and that with proper stats and names (Politicians as well as Journalists). And
Interestingly he spoke bluntly without hiding anything as it was an off the record conversation. I
noticed he gets hyper too quickly and seldom controls his anger. He asked my opinion regarding general
perception about his politics in young ones which i shared without any hesitation. Anyways the best part
happened at the end when he asked me to re introduce myself, educational background and political
affiliation. I did that and I was surprised when he offered me to work with his Team in coming election
campaign, With primarily focusing on Local youth and Cyber/Social Media. As its my Prof coming up and my top most priority is studies so I told him I will decide later and if I wanted, I might join you in November after I am done with my Exams.

Eid or No Eid

   Let me start with a very simple question, What is Eid-Ul-Fitr ? We all know what it is, Right ? Isn't it a Joyous Celebration related to one's religion and faith, Muslims to be precise. In my opinion Faith and Religion is a very personal matter of Person and must not be questioned in any condition.

     Our country is like an oil tank, you just have to lit a fire, then Just stay back and watch what happens. This is our biggest negative as a Nation and our enemies exploit it by promoting Sectarianism on such sacred occassions. If one part or lets say a Group of our society wants to celebrate their Religious Happiness one day earlier than the state then we must not have any problem with this. I mean why should we care? They're celebrating it B'coz they have interpreted their religion this way. If they want to skip a fast or two then we must not make it a National issue. This is purely Religious matter and everyone is responsible for his/her deeds and will be held responsible for them on the day of Judgment. The only thing we should do is create awareness and spread the knowledge and shall pray for them. Taking discussions to the next serious level and Heating things up will be of no use. We as a Nation are already divided in too many groups. Divisions on the basis of Colour, Sect, Language, Region, Province, Caste, Creed and thousands many. Aren't we Muslims and Pakistani first and we have freedom of speech and actions.

    My Request to a sane would be, Just avoid creating unnecessary Issues. There is no reason to fight a battle with them on this issue.

Stay Blessed everyone and please accept my Eid Greetings whenever you decide to Celebrate..:)

I Feel Incomplete

    Ramadan, Sunday and early Morning, too boring to try something interesting. Right ? I don't feel like writing though but yes it has to be this time, Only this. Few words, they're what I have right now.
    Lost in a Desert, Wandering in Dark Space with lost shinning star or writing a book with Blank Numb Mind. Nothing seems working at this hour. Every damn path looks like a maze and proves to be an unsolveable puzzle. Insomnia, too long fast and summer vacations don't seem to be helpful as well. Where's the way out then. You don't
have option esp. when you are this much nerd with Zero Experience. How would I sum it up ? No Solutions, No supportive one around.
   I know life goes on no matter what happens around you but lets clarify it, lets not let go this chance ? lets not lose it from here ? one more time. Just One more ?


Enough, That friend is gone, and I lost my importance. Must move on.






Writing with Scattered Thoughts, too Scattered to sum up.

Basic Purpose of Ramadan

   It has been a day or two since Ramadan has started. Lots of circles have started discussions on some really irrelevant issues, one being the word 'Ramadan or Ramazan'. My interest right now is rather a more complicated one,That's The Basic purpose of Ramazan and The true Essence of Fasting.

  Why we keep ourselves away from food, water and all kind of entertainment? Whats the logic behind this? Let me advice my reader one thing first. Never apply your logic in religion, they don't work here.

   Coming back to the point, we grew up in an Islamic society under the shadow of our Muslim Parents. They told us about this 30 days long fasting marathon, Being a religious obligation for everyone. So we started fasting as per their directions. Admit it that most of us never bothered ourselves to look up in the Holy Books and find out why are we keeping ourselves away from Edibles during these specific hours. In Short the Ultimate purpose of this holy month Ramadan.

  We are humans and we always try to find out the causes and reasons using our senses and try to be as logical as we can. So we apply our logic and the limited knowledge to find out essence of Ramadan. What we do wrong here is that we take it as a physical exercise because that is what we see, our body fighting against thirst and hunger all day long. We eat lots of food in Sehri and then wait till Maghrib and once again eat as much as we can taking our fast as a food festivity. After that We think that we have completed what is demanded by ALLAH from us in this Holy Month of Ramadan.

   We believe that this 'not eating and not drinking' is the ultimate destination of our Fasting in Ramadan. If you are also taking it like this then you're doing it wrong. The ultimate objectives and purpose of ramadan is purely spiritual and they revolve around the connections between a person and his ALLAH. This Not eating and Not drinking are just Catalysts/Milestones, they compel us to reach our destination and develop an exemplary deep connection with our ALLAH Almighty.

   In the Holy Ramadan we are suppose to offer our prayers with more spirit and regularity. We are suppose to practice all the rights of our Parents, Siblings, Relatives and Neighbours, as laid down in the Holy Quran. Holy Ramadan demands us to be more careful about our communications
with people around us, about our deeds and actions that effect others. These are general preaching of Islam but in Holy month of Ramadan Our Creator demands us to be more conscious about them.Things that are generally Permitted become forbidden in Ramadan during fasting. Eating and Drinking which are Permitted become forbidden acts in Ramadan in fasting hours.

   We must take ramadan as a spiritual uplifting and become more closer to our Allah almighty, which is, in fact the true essence of Ramadan. Our Fasting does give us the hope to stay optimistic about our fate. It doesn't necessarily ensure us Jannah in the next world. Following Ramadan with true spirit, which is more than just to stay hungry and thirsty, ensures us a higher level than others on the day of judgment. We must assess ourselves at the end of the Ramadan that was this the month that spiritually uplifted us and are we the men of taqwaa right now ? Do we have a more stronger and deep connection with my ALLAH Almighty ?

   If the Answer is YES then we have successfully fulfilled the basic purpose of the month of Ramadan.
   Otherwise : Hadith e Nabvi Says

                 مَنْ لَمْ يَدَعْ قَوْلَ الزُّورِ وَالْعَمَلَ بِهِ فَلَيْسَ لِلَّهِ حَاجَةٌ فِي أَنْ يَدَعَ طَعَامَهُ وَشَرَابَهُ
“Whoever does not give up lying and evil actions, then Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink” [Saheeh al-Bukhari]
