Religious Speaker!

Hmm.....sitting in the mosque today i saw something and went into a deep though.......i said to my self "does everything have a personality" as in non-living things too? i saw this black box and went into a thought that well truely speaking made me miss the whole friday lecture!!!! heheh...any how

I thought that well personality comes from how we are brought up how we are made so i thought...hmm it is composed of wires,has a magnet in it....hmm its branded by a foreign company.....so it must have been made by a non-muslim...hmm what else can i gather....ya but after it has been made and tested with the worst conditions...it now hangs in a corner in a very peaceful place.....THE MOSQUE and produces religious sounds.....may it me the Tilawat(recitation) or Azaan...and what not.It is a very useful equipment indeed.

Yes people i am talikng about an ordinary speaker,but what does it feel?does it like its place in the mousque or woul;d it rather be will to be in a guys room playing hardrock songs....banging all over the place........but what does destiny keep for it in the future....will it be sold as a used item on thaila when it has done its time in the mosque........and then after all this religious background and broughtup.....it might end up in someones house playing songs,or may be end up on a suzuki shouting voices of a Political leader, or may be it will get its place on a stall where all day it would play a pre-recorded voice like "aam ka juice panch ruppe glass bhai...khud piyan aur ghar walon ko pilain" or ........ammmm well cant think of more places hehehehe....

So..........dont know why on earth did i write this but well it was just fruit for thought............which made me think what does or future hold fo us,what is our base and how should we act in this world regarding all maters,is what we do the right thing to do????and alot of things went in my mind like zap!!!! i cant even type as fast as the thoughts pass through my mind!!!!!

Intentions Good..................OutcomesBad!!!

Hello people,hope every body is ahvin fun on this blog though i aint gettin a lot of comments but still,i write a blog so that i can have my experiences on air for others to learn from,so here i am with another one!


So its started with a little thing that we wanted to do for some one,a person who has cared for us and has bin there for us when we were in an uncontroleable or confusing situation.We just decided to present a gift and this whole thing became an issue,that..... why this gift was presented,,,no readers not the person who was recieving the gift made an issue,rather the people around us,i cant actually disclose the names of the people.....but the gist of this blog is that some times good intentions for some one can cause a hell of a situation for the those whome u try to do some thing for...........


I guess that is life han?.......if someone wishes to do some thing good for some one,people around just try to make a scene out of it,and try to get entertained by it for pleasure......how can people be so? even people u can trust(like in my case) can creat a problem.......even if it wont matter to them if this act of goodness is done or not.....still all they want to do is poke their noses in it and make matters worse................i guess people are jealous about it also........that ooo!! he did this particular thing for that falana(annonymous) person ......why didnt he do it for me and then u can easily go to where it all leads.


But from my recent experience i still stand for the right path,if u want to do some thing good for somebody then just do it.....dont think if that person will like it or not...or what other people will think.....ofcourse one should look for the limit line and not cross it but one should not be scared about doing an act of goodness............."cause an act of goodness never goes to waste" and one advice which is beautifully phrased by Capt.Jack Sparrow in the "Pirates Of The Caribean" i guess it was the first one......... "You can trust a dishonest man to be dishonest,its the honest ones you should watch out for".


Ill sum it up here........watch your back in every thing you do be wise, be smart, be courageous but dont be hiper as when one gets in that conditions one looses the power to make wise decisions............well all of this because there is some one always waiting behind that dark curtain to stab you in the back.

Shairi Take One---------Rolling

utha lo mujhe ko apne in hathon se,
k main to kagaz ki kashti sa hoon,


le k in hathon main sukha do mujhe,
k ye pani mujhe akra jaye ga,
hoon akela tanha is darya-e-dard main,
bant lo jo piya hain main ne is darya se,

is darya-e-dhook main pighal jaoonga,
k main to kagaz ki kashti sa hoon,



dair karna mat k mera waqt hai pani main muktasir,
ye nigal jaye ga mujhe,dhoba de ga gherayon main,
gaya jo aik baar to dhoond na payo gay kabhi,
k hai ye darya rangon aur gehrayon main gehra,


nikal lena mujhe is darya-e-edard se jald,
k main to kagaz ki kashti sa hoon,



agar kabhi dekho k badal hain gehre aasman main,
dhank lena mujhe,k ye badal baras na jain,
na kia khayal to bheeg jaoon ga main itna,
nazron k samne reza reza payo gay mujko,

bacha k rakhna mujhko in zindagi k khatron se,
k main to kagaz ki kashti sa hoon,



rakhna khud k pass aur khud ko aasoon se door,
k ye aasoon bhe to bhega dain gay mujko,
par tere liye ye ansoon bhee pe loonga main,
khud ko maar k doon ga tujhe kuch thora aaram,


par hai meri bhi had-e-bardasht kuch ziyada nahin,
k main to kagaz ki kashti sa hoom,


pao kabhi khud ko kisi darya main dhoobte,
bait jana muj main ke main bacha loonga tujhko,
dega tu mujhe wo himmat k samandar bhi kia cheez hai,
chahiye tera saath aur pyar,bas kuch aur nahin


chahiye tujsa mujhe chalane wala,
k main to kagaz ki kashti sa hoon,



meri banawat ko samj lena achi tarhan,
k jan lo tum pasand napasand meri,
aur ho koi khata hum se kabhi,
to maramat karsako hamari behter,
koi cheez lage mujh main kam agar,
koi cheeze lage ghalat mujh main agar,
to mor k kar dena tum mujhe sahi,
badal sakta hai tu hi k chaha hai dilse tujhe,


sonp di zidagi tere haath main apni
k mian to kagaz ki kashti sa hoon

On The Verge Of Extinction!

Today i write with a thought that makes me have goose bumps all over my body,a though that makes me so deeply sucked into it that i can think no further,so i decided to let it out of my system and write it on my blog.
Oh! man the dates seem to pass like moments these days......the days that me and my class mates will never forget,THE DAYS OF COLLEGE...................yes!!! people go into it ...... think,try to refresh the memories of those wonderfull carefree college days,though the most important one's considering the fact that our future depends on them,but still dont we all miss them,well i can surely say that it will take me a long time to get over the fact that college life is gone............and i need to warm up to this fact soon as we are only 20-30 regular college days away from these days being extinct!
WaO!! my college days,me being an o'level private candidate wasnt able to get my hands on the amount of fun people have in schools,and when i came to A.P.S.A.C(Army Public School And College System) karachi,saddar....i realised what i had missed in the 2-3 years time of my o'level studies..............firstly i cursed my self and wished that those days could come back so that i could go to a regular school and take the taste of what i had missed..........but them came to the conclusion that there is no use of crying over spilled milk and it would be wise of me enjoy what i had in my hands.
In college,from the first day onwards i was like trying to grab any moment of laughter and bit of enjoyment i could,that always kept me on the front line of every occasion,might that be a science fair or a party,even small happenings during classes or in lunch times,i was always there in every little thingi that went on.Then i made a lot of friends too,which made every thing even more merrier!! Relations with teachers were always good in every way and i tried to be in their good books cause i believe a teacher should be a friend of the students so that no matter how stupid the question he asks is! the student can feel free to ask it.
Man ill miss these days alot,and well since this thought of ""NO COLLEGE NO MORE"" has creped in, i have started sucking every little bit of everything i can take from college,either its knowledge,experiences,memories.....every thing.........i just dont want to move on,but i have to,i know that and will surely move do it cause i understand that i have a future ahead,which is full of experience's which i want to taste too.
Here i would like to take the opportunity to thank all my teachers,friends,buddies,and someone whome i know will read this........Thank u all.......for all the great experiences that u have given me,every one in college will take something different from college and what i will take is inexpressible,the memories will make me smile every time i think of the days of college.
Hope the journey of life ahead is also rich and full of overwhelming moments as these two years of college!!!!

Shower OR Balti

Hmmmm folks here i am again with a weird one.Its some thing we dont think of just do it on a regular basis without even noticing.

Standing under that hot comferting and so relaxing rain like water fall is amazing........he opened the shower and aaahhh cold water sprout out that too in burst which were more like a fire mans hose............hahaha....well thats what i feel should happen to those who regularly take loooooooong baths under showers wasting all that precious water......sorrie regular LONG shower taker's.

Its something i thought of just while entering the bathroom to wash my hands after a meal,i said to my self "lota ya shower ... hmm thats a new blog topic" well its kind of a simple thing,when we take a bath in a daily routine,hope that i get a YES head shake from every body on that,some of us use showers while some use the bucket and mug system commonly known as"lota balti system" well we tend to use a lot more water in showers.In a survey it was shown that showers waste five to ten gallons every unneeded minute,that is when ur soaping etc.We should be very careful about this as water is an asset,and specially in Karachi there are some areas where people some times get only an hour of running water a day while some dont even get blessed with that.

I live in an area where we get running water for about 3-4 times a day(subjet to availablity) so i rarely get under a shower.Relax that doesnt mean i dont take a bath ok....heheh...lota balti system is the way for me and truely i dont regret it rather feel gud that i save water in the process.It works as gud as the shower and fulfills the purpose well,and the best part is that if ur done and have a little water in the bucket left then u can have the feeling of gettin under the water fall u always wanted,look its a three step process,Pick the bucket and position ur self in the centre of the bathroom,then tilt the bucket over ur head and then PHUSHHHH!!!!! AHHHH that feels great but its also a type of thing that if played on TV this message would appear before this being shown,



"this stunt was performed by professionals,so please for ur safety and for the safety of the people around you,Please dont try this at home"



Well i can say that cause once goin for a bigger splash i did get my back cramped.....so please be care full i dont want people gettin hurt here.....

I hope that this might bring some awareness to readers,and from today lets just put a little effort in at saving water,check for leaks etc,our efforts will do good to the generations to come.



""JIYEEEEE WATER SAVING""

Isha At Masjid-e-Tooba



Dont worrie people i am not trying to show off how namzi i am ok,thats good enough for my Allah to know,but the experience i had was so worth mentioning on my blog that i couldnt residt writing about it here....so read along.


A no short of a WoW! was my experience today and as the anxious me could not wait to put this on my blog so i write this in quite a hurry,Today i went to Masjid-e-Tooba which is located in defence phase II,I was planning to go there as i had heard a lot about it and how beautyfully this mosque was built.Its huge attraction,was its enormous dome that is 72 metres in diameter and amazingly this mosque the largest single dome mosque in the World(claimed by a site),that too built way back in 1969,yes thats true,way back then......i was just amazed by the date.


The 72 metre dia dome is supported on a low surrounding wall and the huge dome has small mirrors on the inside at a distance of about 5-10 inches,the lighting inside was dim and the acouistics were like unbelievable.Specially when just before the jamat started and the Aazan was called that was a moment i can not express,just a one of a kind experience that i will never forget.


The thing i loved most about the mosque was the silence,it was litrally what u call pin drop silence,and then the echo that was produced by every word spoken by the imam was great.Out side the mosque talking to a few regular and old namzi's i got to know that it was too a great tourist attraction for not only Karachi'iets rather people comming from out side the country also come here just to take a tour of this amazing piece of architecture.For the people of different religions there are special dress's which are provided so that they can come into the mosque and view it from the inside.


I am really happy for those people who live near to Masjid-e-Tooba as they have just some thing accessable to them which most people wish for.I wish i could go their on a daily basis but sadly it is considerable distance away from my home.Today at the mosque i prayed for a lot of things,it was like a day that u plan and say "Aaj to sab kuch maanglo" and i tried too,but still it feels like i could have stayed there for a little longer and just meditated a little longer but surely it was a time well spent and i guess i will go their when ever i can.

The Mosque-ing Experience


Hmm........ a little portion of my life which i felt should be shared with every one and use my blog as place of sadqa-e-jariah.


So around a month back,facing numerous problems in my life i didnt feel like going to any one to talk about them,as they were too personal........i satarted gettin depressed about them and had gone in state in which i felt hopless....then suddenly one late evening i heard the Aazan from a mosque that is a bit far away from my home compaired to otherone's...but did decide to go for the Isha prayer...and that idea came from no where just some sort of an inner feeling.

I prayed there that day and felt pretty good too...as i talked to Allah Mian about my problems and asked for solutions,though the problems didnt just snap away from me rather,on my way home and on that 10min walk i stoped thinking about them and felt like i left them back in the mosque.Well on my way out from the mosque i casually saw the namaz timing chart which sort of got saved in my mind......the next morning i got up early and just early enough to go for Fajr.....and i am talking about no alarms set just like that....i woke up saw the time and put my cell down....then it clicked to me that i can make it till namaz if i wished.......so i fought my will of leaving my warm cosy kambal! got up,got dressed and left for namaz,amazingly i made it in time.

From that day till today i have bin going to the Mosque for as many times for the namaz i can,actually its a gud experience and most of all the enviornment is great at the mosque i go to(Askari III mosque).Specially the peace their is priceless,and then sitting there for hardly a few minutes after namaz is done....feels like i am all free of worries....its just a holy experience.

In Karachi most mosques that i have visited dont have a ladies area and so women cannot experience this.I say women should also have a space in the mosque for a daily basis,not only for the Ramadan Tarawi,though it is not compulsary for women to go to the mosque for the five times prayer but still what i experinced at the mosqe was great and wish for more and more people to have that experience.

So try it today,go to a mosque for any prayer time You like and sit there for a moment in peace and get in touch with something one cannot express rather something only one can feel.And from my experience prayer gives u a lot it gives dicipline,courage,honour and most of all Patience.All u need to have is true faith in the ALL MIGHTY and rest all goes so smoothly that u cant even understand how something started and how it ended.Solution to problems which seem impossible to solve come like revelations.

Vacume in the Ear!!


Yes follks these kind of weird things are really going to be goin on in this blog....I'll let u guys in on every funny and non personal thing that happens too me..hahahah

So i was recomended an anti-waxing procedure ... well by whome i cant tell just say k it had too be done for a career some where.....so i went to an E.N.T(an ear nose throat specialist)....and told him what i had to get done...he said ok and just took a hose, put a large probe on its front ,flicked a switch and on it came like a vacume cleaner....it was like a shiny wax eating monster .... which said "haha i am gonna suck all the wax outta ya....mu ho haha" .. and i was like "shut up....ur just a medical instrument" soon the cartooni probe started looking like a steel surgical instrument.Now the doc held me and in it he went with the probe in my right ear.....wrooomm wroooomm....thats all i could hear...though my left hear could hear some comments from the doc....like "dont move"... "stay still" ..and stuff but if i were the left ear on some bodies head i would rather be worried about the fact that "aaahhhh i am gonna be next" haahhaha.....cause what happened after that was so painful that i cant actually express it but i would define it as "a person with a hammer hitting u in the funny bone or ur elbow once every second for as long as u have bin reading this blog" yeah it was that bad. After this was done the left ear was in the docs hand and then again that wroom wroom...but now my right ear was lost it was just hanging around finding a place to get a hold of him self......lucky for him it was hooked on to my head.........hahaha.
Well now the left ear was also done and my head was booming with pain...when i decided to take a break from the doc's holy hands of pain...... i was still infront of the doc...in a downly position of the thinking Allama Iqbal...when suddenly every thing became sweet....i saw loved ones pics float by....and felt so light that i could almost float.....i had thoughts of peace and happy moments of my past which all zoomed by...then suddenly i found my self saying "i am back" "i am back" and realized i was on a bed looking at the doc's face as he tried to bring be back from my lost world....yup u guessed it i fainted...and for some unknown reason it was funny...i was smiling still drousy and feeling like i wanted to let out what i had for lunch but still carcking jokes....i said "Api the roll i had for lunch is coming out" hahaha.....

So after a glass of water and some time on a bed i did feel better ...and was able to analyze what was going on...so I thanked the doctor for his help and paid the required fee went home and though about it "what a day"......but truely the fainting experience was great....i wonder is this the same feeling when a person actually die's.........Hooo thats freaky ....do leave a comment.

My Blogging Career

Hmm...so what can i say inspired by my brothers blogging and the seemingly fun to do activity which might help me get over my ""typos"" i decided to get my own place in the E-World....Hmm my place that sounds ...aaammm prety Gud...han? its mine....hahahah
So it starts my career in the blogging sector han? thats guid to hear too..... hope get a lot of people to read it....well its no the one and only "Spider Man" kind of blog but what can i say i am just a beginner........i loved writing a daily diary once but got bored of it so here it seems to be a free place to write any thing i want.......


SO..................IT STARTS...!!!!!
