What 'SHE' is not when 'WE' define 'HER' !

 







What she is not; when ‘WE’ define ‘HER’!!!

——————————————————————
-The Pakistani woman is not a mystery waiting to be solved.
-She’s not in need of being saved by the clutches of a villain.
-Nor is she a person who would dance before taking a bite from a cookie. (It’s way easier to eat a cookie without having to dance a full song)
-She is not a label which needs to be marketed.
-She does not wear the veil or the hijab to show dependency or fear. Her veil and hijab are a symbol of her relationship with her creator.
-She is not a robot that can be modelled according to people’s whims.
-She is NOT a slave to anyone but Allah subhana wa Tallah.
So quit trying to create moulds for her. Allah created her in the best of moulds and that is the most liberating feeling ever.

باجی کا دوپٹہ

میری   باجی   اور   میں   بالکل   ایسے   ہیں   جیسے   یک   جان   دو   قالب۔   یہ   کہنا   بھی   غلط   نا   ہوگا   کہ   باجی   کی   خاطر   میں   نے   کافی   جسمانی   صعوبتیں   بھی برداشت   کیں۔   چھوٹے   ہوتے   ہوئے   باجی   مجھی   کو   آنکھ   مچولی   میں   کس   کر   بھائی   یا   سہیلی   کی   آنکھ   پر   باندھ   دیتییں   تھیں۔   مجھی   کو   پھیلا   کر   سارے   شہتوت   چگتییں۔   کالج   جاتے   جاتے   باجی   نے   میرے   استعمال   میں   جو   بدعات   ایجاد   کیں   ۔   اُن   کا   حساب   تو   اللہ   ہی   اُن   سے   لے   گا۔   رکشے   کی   ہر   سواری میں   باجی   مجھے   بل  ...

The truth unveiled!

VALENTINE’S DAY The truth unveiled 'Every deen has an innate character. The character of Islam is modesty.' Al Muwatta 47.9 HOW IT STARTED: Like most Christian festivals, the origin of Valentine’s Day also lies in the pagan Rome. In ancient Rome young men and women used to celebrate this festival where the women would write love letters and throw them in a huge pot. Then the men would choose their partners through lottery and would court (relationship before marriage) the girl whose letter came in their hands. (Webster’s family encyclopedia). According to the encyclopedia this festival has no direct or indirect link to the life of Saint Valentine (269 A.D). To make Christianity more popular and acceptable among the pagan masses, the Christian clergy added this festival to Christianity by celebrating this day as Saint Valentine’s Day. The myths regarding Saint Valentine giving his life for the sake of love and others are all false. WHERE DO WE ST...

On Cue:

On Cue:  Reality and illusion .............................................. When the Pharoah challenged Prophet Moses (AS) to a contest of power with his best magicians Allah actually revealed to humanity the reality of deception and the fallibility of human vision and perception.  He assured Moses (AS): (20:68) We said to him: "Have no fear; for it is you who will prevail. (20:69) And throw down what is in your right hand; it will swallow up all that they have wrought. They have wrought only a magician's stratagem.  A magician cannot come to any good, come whence he may. ” In the dicipline of psychology there is a phenemenon labelled as the “phi   phenomenon” or simply put a visual closure. It explains the natural response of human vision to a visual stimuli. The response lasts longer than the stimulus thus extending the actual experience. The co ordinated movment of lights on a dance floor or the continuous flicker of bulbs in a string of decoration lights of...
