Heavy Rain in Karachi

A thunder storm has occurred in Karachi. I have never seen this kind of lighting in my life! It's like Allah is saying that you had been asking for this since May, and now you get it!

Heavy Rain in Karachi

May wasn't a very pleasant one in Karachi, it was extremely hot and we all were sweating heavily. The heat was intense, and my classmates and I were praying to God to have our vacations soon. Since our classroom doesn't have much space, especially when 30 students sit there, the heat become unbearable!

First, when the rain started, we were very excited, that finally God is pouring down his blessings on earth. Or should I say Karachi.  But then the weather got harsh, and the lightening started to fall on the ground.  I've seen this kind of rain before in Canada, and I remember I wasn't that scared, but now, I feel A LOT scared. Rain doesn't occur usually in Karachi, but when it does, you feel like praying to god to stop it.

In the end, I'd like to say,  O Allah, do not kill us out of Your anger, do not destroy us through Your torture, and protect us before anything happens.

Multiple Sclerosis - help Pakistani Patients by sending medicines

I heard from someone about a disease called MS or Multiple Sclerosis, so I decided to search about it. I looked it up on the internet, and it's a scary disease that affects the brain and spinal cord, resulting in loss of muscle control, vision, balance and you feel numbness if you touch anything, i.e., loss of sensation. This is called an autoimmune disease. The body immune system destroys the harmful bacteria, but mistakenly it attacks normal tissues or organs. MS attacks the brain and spinal cord.

This horrifying disease is common in young, according to what I have heard, in Pakistan.  There are many medications of this MS, but only one medicine is available and made in Pakistan, which is hard for the poor people to afford and even if we do import it from a foreign country, people will not be able to afford the medicines, because one month's medicine will cost a fortune for them. I request to any organization, if there is any, to send Pakistan medications for this scary disease, to send it to Aga Khan University hospital so it can send the medications for MS at an affordable prize, because it is one of the best hospital in the country, and it helps poor people if they are not able to afford medications and stuff like that, for that I really appreciate. Pleased help these people and the younger generation of Pakistan. 

Earthquake in Karachi!

So that was earthquake in Karachi! 
 My Grand mother is telling me and aunt also that  everyone started reciting the first kalma and then Allah stopped the earthquake. It was very dangerous as Karachi is 7 feet beneath the sea. If the earthquake was severe, god forbid, we all would be dead! May Allah keep Karachi safe from any harm. AMEEN.

my blog on earthquake:

As you all may know, that an earthquake occurred in Karachi a few minutes ago on 16th april, 2013. Thank god it was not severe, or we would all be dead. the weather today was not a very pleasant one either. this is a sign that shows that an earthquake may occur. another sign is that birds start flying into their nests really quietly, and specially crows. some of the main precautions are that you should check all the gas pipe lines and you should turn off all your electrical appliances. you should not stand beside large and tall building and you should repeat some Quranic verses or that dua for when an earthquake, god forbid, occurs. schools should train students, whether if the school is big or small, if an earthquake occurs and what precautions you should take. may Allah keep Karachi and Pakistan safe from these natural disasters. AMEEN.

that's it. that's all I got now. And I'm ok too. In-fact, I'm feeling really healthy.

Humans Have A SUPER BRAIN!

Some of you think it's crazy, but actually, it isn't! It's completely true!

Our brain can store unlimited memories. So, if some event occurred in the past, it's still stored in your brain, even if it happened years ago! The only problem is that you just don't remember it! When that event occurred, a link was created in our brain that made us remember when this event occurred, that happened at that event, and where it occurred. 

Whenever we try to remember it, that link made us remember that event! If you forget that event, don't worry, it's still stored in your memory! The problem is the link which made us remember that particular event, got broken. If we get a little hint of that event, for example, where it occurred, I'm sure we all slap our thigh, and say, "now I remember!"

When that hint was given, the broken link got connected again and you remember that event. 

So, as you can see, god has created our brains an unlimited storage place in which we could store unlimited memories! We should thank god for all the blessings he has given us.

   

Malala Yousafzai – She was Promoting the Teachings of Islam

I am shocked why Malala Yousufzai was shot in her head and neck? I am confused who wanted to kill her for such a wonderful thing she was promoting? Perhaps I do not understand the issues around us – But that makes me feel uncomfortable! She is only 14, three years older than me –

Education is the right of every Child. Islam also says so, no matter if you are a girl or a boy. That is what Malala Yousufzai had been promoting. She wanted every girl to go to school, get the best education and become useful part of Pakistani society.

She was promoting the teachings of Islam. If Muslims are not educated, they cannot compete with the educated world. Their future will be bleak. My father told me that girls are about half of Pakistan’s population, if they are not educated, they cannot make their kids as effective citizens of Pakistan.

Everyone is praying for her quick recovery – Not only in Pakistan, the whole world is praying for her. She has become a role model for everyone. Madonna dedicated a song to Malala.

I think girls must get education. This is not Western culture at all. It is the duty of every Muslim to educate children. Perhaps, those opposing this are not educated themselves!

In my view Malala is the ray of light and hope for Pakistan. May Allah Save Her!

Please Take Care of Our Beach and Marine Life

I have been to the Sea View at Clifton several times. But I cannot stand the smell which makes nauseous. There is trash of all sorts that makes this smell. Lifeguards do not have enough equipment and there is no marine life!

People visiting the beach do not even care about that. I remember my last trip to Canada where I went to Lake Ontario. It was so clean, water was transparent and pollution free. Lifeguards were well trained and fully equipped.

I think God has given us sea, why don’t we take care of it?

My suggestions are:

Give lifeguards good training and also equipment.

• People must not through trash, those who do it must be punished.
• Trash that is there must be taken out of city limits.
• Food stalls should me moved into a clean food court styled place.

We can do it, it is not the government’s fault, if we do not through trash on the beach, and it will stay clean!

It’s our beach, we all must take care of it – Clean beach is good for marine life and also for us!

Advernture of Finding two Books | Thanks to Uncle Ashraf Chaudhry

I have been reading lots of books during summer holidays. With my father we went to Liberty Book Shop at Dolmen Mall Clifton. I saw two books that I wanted to purchase these were "All American Girl" and "They Princess Dairies - Ten out of Ten" - But the salesman did not give any discount. My father told him that Liberty always give him 10% discount, but he refused.

So my father told me that he would buy these books online from Liberty to avail the discount. But when he checked online, the books went out of stock.

I really wanted these two books!

My father requested on facebook to check if these books are available in any other city of Pakistan. His friend Uncle Ashraf Chaudhry was kind enough to find these two book from Readings in Lahore. He couriered these books to my father's office.

It was a surprise for me when I woke-up, I saw these two books on my bed. I really enjoyed reading books. And with this, I would like to thank Uncle Ashraf Chaudhry for his kindness.
