This ghazal is for Ibrahim bhai who have memorized it for some weird reason. In reality this classic tells the whole tradegy of Mughal era in India. The way zafar has described it in few lines, it can’t be described in many history books.
The biggest tragedy is that we muslims have still not gotrid of Mughal era yet. You know what I mean.
Faraz passed away. Inna Lillahye Waina Alahye Rajioon. I have not liked his work much like many others but I really love Ranjish he Sahee. What an awesome ghazal. May he rest in peace-Ameen
It’s fashion these days to talk against Islamic Shariah or Shariah and prove yourself a learned and enligthened soul no matter whether one even knows “ABC” of Shariah or not. Following article appeared in today’s Jang. This is about Caliph Omar(RA) and Judiciary.

When Blair was questioned by Police, it was apprecited by us by declaring West as a civilized nation where judiciary is respected by everyone including serving PM. We also then criticized Muslims or Mullahs that they screwed us up by keep pushing us to follow backward and obselete Shariah otherwise Western laws are more modern and applicable in today’s world. Such ignorants don’t know that what Blair did now was done long time back by more powerful and dominant Muslim ruler Caliph Omar(RA) in His tenure.
How cruel and stupid we are. At one side we don’t make efforts to read our history while on other hand we argue about something which never learnt seriously at all.
I saw this yesterday while going to office.
Ai driver drivery kar ishq karna chor day
rickshay k brake fail hain,race lagana chor day
Very apt.
Nothing is needed to say while faiz says all:
Gar aaj auj peh hai taal-e-raqib to kya
Yeh chaar din ki khudai to koi baat nahin

Roznama Boriat has suspended their online e-paper.
Shariq Mustaqeem, the owner of Boriat News paper says:
قارئین کرام، ہم غم و خوشی کے ملے جلے جذبات کے ساتھ روزنامہ بوریت کراچی کی تمام اپ ڈیٹس کی معطلی کا اعلان کر رہے ہی
Shariq tells the reason:
دنیا میں محبت کے سوا اور بھی غم ہیں اور یہی وہ وجہ ہے جس کے باوصف ہمیں سائٹ کو معطل کر دینے کی ضرورت پیش آئی ہے۔ یاد رکھیے، ہر انسان کے ساتھ ایک پَیٹ لگا ہے، اور آج کے سقراط کو بھی بجلی کا بل ادا کرنا پڑے گا۔
As expected, lots of Boriat fans are not happy with the decision. I got introduced with this website one and half year ago via friend and become fan of it. The unique style of sarcasm was too good to send the message across. At that time I didn’t know that Shariq was my university fellow.
Shariq has suspended his paper due to his career move which I accept but it really saddens that a good urdu service will not function anymore. I can just hope Shariq will continue his love for Urdu from the place where he resides now. I can’t publicly reveal where Shariq is working now without his permission but I wish him best of luck for his new and bright career.
