Hello!I have been posting anything after a week or maybe more,don’t remember.Its not because I have nothing to say,it’s because I have things which are not worthy to say.

After a very long time,may be years,I bought few books,the non-technical books for reading.It’s not because I am miser or something.It’s just I was not able to seprate few moments of life for myself.Work-home-work,that’s all I’m about.

This saturday I left office earlier and went to old Urdu Bazar.Actually I had to buy a course book for my younger sister but unfortunately I coudn’t find the book but luckily I go idea to buy few urdu books for myself.I had no idea where to go so I asked the computer shop guy for guidance and he told me about Welcome Books. This shop ,as they claim,is really hub of standard urdu literature.Since I got tired enough after reading programming related books/materials,I had nice opportunity to go a bit off the track for sake of myself.I bought few books which are following.

1)Translations of Khalil Gibran’s work(The Prophet,Sand and Foam and Broken Wings)
2)Labaik by Mumtaz Mufti
3)Shahab Nama by Qudratullah Shahab
4)Shaitanian by Dr.Yunus Butt.
5)Maa ji by Qudratullah Shahab

I have finished Yunus butt and last night finished Labbaik in a single sitting.Labbaik is a very amazing writing about Hajj reportage by a person who was muslim by name only not by act.Mumtaz unleashes his experience to reader that how he discovered his creator-Allah.If you have got chance to visit Makkah and Madina you will really feel yourself restless to visit that place again.Even if you never visited those places,you would start struggling to visit those place once in life.

Alhamdolillah,Allah gave me chance to visit His place in 2003 when i went to perform Umrah alone.This was my first ever visit out of Pakistan,how I went there,I stil dont believe in it because i went in the condition which was really impossible to spend Rs.50,000 for such journey,but as its said that journey to Makkah and Madina is full with wonders,its not fake at all as Mumtaz explains in his book,I also experienced unexplainable things over there.

I won’t go into details at the moment but Inshallah I would sure share how I discovered a muslim in me.
