Mairay Alfaaz rootay hain

Suna hoga bohat tum nay

kahin Ankhon ki rimjhim ka

Kahin palkoon ki shabnam ka

Parha hoga bohat tum ne

Kahin lehjay ki barish ka

Kahin sagar ke aanso ka

Magar tum ne kabhi humdam,

Kahin daikhay ?

Kahin parhay?

Kissi tehreer ke aansoo

Mujay teri judai ne ye meeraj bakhshi hai

Ke main jo lafz likhta hoon

Wo’h saray lafz rootay hain

Ke main jo harf bunta hoon

Wo’h saray batain kartay hain

Mairay sang iss judai mai

Mairay alfaaz rotay hain

Suno aisa nahi kartay

Chalo tum raaz ho apna

Tumhain afshan nai kartay

Suno jiska muqaddar ho

Ussay chora nahi kartay

Jissay shaffaf rakhna ho

Ussay maila nai kartay

Jo bass jata hai dharkan mai

Ussay bhoola nahi kartay

Kissi ko dil daitay wa’qt

Bohat soocha nahi kartay

Jo pehlay se hi tanha ho

Ussay tanha nahi kartay

Suno ye yadain sataien ge

Magar roya nahi kartay

Suno tum yaad attay ho

Aur hum soya nahi kartay

Mujhay Zindagi ki Dua na dai

Mairi Zindagi se bani nahi

Koi zindagi pe karay yaqeen

Mjay Zindagi pe yaqeen nahi

Yeh safar bhi kaisa safar hua

Main kabhi kahen tu kabhi kaheen

Mjhay jiss sanam ki talaash thee

Who milla magar maira nahi

Main wohh baat hoon jo bani nahi

Mujhay Zindagi ki Dua na dai

Mairi Zindagi se bani nahi

Aag ho tu jalne main dair kitani lagti hai
Barf ke pighalane main dair kitani lagti hai

Chaahe koi ruk jaaye chaahe koi rah jaaye
Qaafiloun ko chalane main dair kitani lagti hai

Chaahe koi jaisaa bhi ham safar ho sadiyoun se
Raastaa badalane main dair kitani lagti hai

Ye tu waqt ke bas main hai ke kitani mohalat de
Warna bakht dhalne main dair kitani lagti hai

Moo’m kaa badan le kar dhuup main nikal aana
Aur phir pighalane main dair kitani lagti hai

Soch ki zaminoun main raaste juda houn tu
Duur jaa nikalane main dair kitani lagti hai

O Allah the Almighty
Protect me and guide me
To your love and mercy
Ya Allah don’t deprive me
From beholding your beauty
O my Lord accept this plea

My Lord is enough for me, Glory be to Allah
There is nothing in my heart except Allah

Who is the only One?
Who is the King?
Who is the Merciful?

Who is the most praised and benevolent?
Whatever you see in this world is His sign
He’s the love of every soul

He is the Forgiver of all sins
He is the King of the universe
He is the Refuge of all hearts

O Allah hear my sorrows and my sighs
Have mercy and pardon my sins
Bless my night and days

O Lord of the worlds
Send peace and blessings
On Ta-ha the trustworthy
In every time and at every instant

Fill my heart with conviction
Make me steadfast on this Religion
And forgive me and all the believers

Man is a social animal is an agreed upon fact. He can’t live alone in this journey of life. It is nearly impossible to live alone without having anyone close to you. It is truly a very depressing feeling if you feel that you are left alone in this whole world, and no one is around you when you desperately need someone. One always faces ups and downs in his life; sometimes a very small thing makes you happy, while sometimes a minute matter may bring down tears to your eyes.

All of us may need someone special to be always around and be with us, not only when we are in trouble, but also when we have to share our joys and happiness. May it be parents, grandparents, siblings, teachers, spouse or friends. It could be anyone, but believe me this feeling that someone is always around and with you; who loves you and always helps and supports you no matter whatever happens,whatever you do, that person is always at your side. Such feelings and sentiments always make you feel on top of the world. Believe me its true!

One faces different phases in life, be it worldly issues or emotional. I think one should be strong enough to face every situation with courage. To have a person who is always emotionally with you adds up to your strength and makes you feel special. He/she could boost up your confidence, can guide you, could give you moral support and could tell you which is the right path to follow. Imagine for a while, if you don’t have anyone around to share your feelings with? What you are feeling? How you want to express? How to handle any situation? And several other matters in which you definitely need someone to share your feelings, but you don’t have anyone. It will obviously make you sick. You might feel that no one likes you, no one cares about you, no one needs you. It may start you to think negatively that you are nothing or there is no reason to live.

So please friends do look around you and I am sure that you may find someone very very precious and special in your life who really loves you and is always concerned about you.

Strong family ties and close feelings of bondage and affiliation forced the people of Islamabad to visit their native cities on the festival of Eid. The city even today is presenting a very uninhabited and empty look. Almost 80% of the population left for their respective villages and towns. Most of the people have migrated to this modern city for the sake of employment and education. Announcement of the Eid festival a day earlier provided the inhabitants with an opportunity to get a long holiday span with their families. Apart from officially announced holidays, people took extra leaves from their offices and left the city, on 30^th September so that they could spend time with their families.

Such condition with empty roads, two or three cars at the signal, a few people at shops reminded me of that very old Islamabad which I used to witness almost ten years 10-15 years back. So much peaceful, calm and quiet; presenting a true picture of sleeping beauty. All this was very appealing to me, as now I only see my city in this state, just twice in a year at the festivals of Eid. This always strikes a chord me of my school days.

While driving around in the city tension free because of less traffic, I saw that most of the main avenues including Blue Area, 7^th avenue, Nazimu-ud-din road, and Highway were empty and hardly had three or four vehicles on them. Same was the case with markets. Apart from bakeries and sweet shops all other shops remained closed. Even at the forth day of Eid a few of the shops were opened but there were no customers. .

On the contrary, people who celebrated the festival in Islamabad, visited their relatives and other picnic spots. Main recreational spots like National Monument, Rawal Lake, Japenese Park, View point, and F-9 Park were crowded with the left over people. People enjoyed merry making with relatives and friends. Eid Milan parties were arranged, people visited food spots. Special security arrangements were seen outside parks and lakes to avoid any bitter incident.. One thing to be noticed was that public transporters and cab drivers charged fares of their will from the passengers as a token of Edi.

On the whole my city was presenting a great view of Old Islamabad with less population and reduced traffic which I memorize.

Abundance of availability of edibles owing to the scientific inventions; and downfall in religious values has widely resulted in the wasting of foodstuffs. Inspite of the fact that most of the religions of the world; be it Hinduism or Islam put down significant stress on the importance of food as a blessing, rather a sacred entity, most of us are in continuous habit of wasting food products. Without even thinking for a second about those who don’t have access to this blessing and who die because of hunger. We still don’t mind going tons of food in trash.

Now if we look upon the reasons for such attitude towards food, we will see that the first and the foremost reason is the aplenty of food. Credit goes to the scientific inventions which regardless of our needs keep on providing us with assorted food items, and we keep on wasting it. Secondly, we are so much deteriorated in our moral and ethical values that we don’t bother about the wastage of food. It could be easily witnessed in marriages, birthday parties, Iftaris in Ramadan or any other get to gather; that platters full of edibles are thrown away in bins, while beggars waiting outside for single bite of food. At that moment if most of us only think about the process how food reaches us, right from the farm house till our door step; I think there would be significant progress and we would at least start thinking about ceasing food wastage.

The solutions to this issue are not much complicated enough to be practiced. Every one of us eats food. So everyone could participate. Right from the one who reads this article could enlighten the one who doesn’t read but wastes food. Furthermore this concept should be introduced in children syllabus, which will mould their minds in the very childhood. Ladies and men could also be a source to spread awareness among the masses. Together we could bring significant changes in the thinking and practices of the people and gradually making this important matter initially national and than international.
