For the children of Gaza

Dua bhi dil sei nahi nikalti, kaisey nikley? Kahein issey bhi shuba hai kei iss ka asar khatm ho gaya gai. kaisey na ho, pichley baras bhi dua kei thei aman kei, insaaf kei, sachaei kei, laikin iss baras bhi aghaz hei iss khooni tarah hoa kei dua ghut gaei. Masoomoon ka gham, un kei din aur raat kei chain gum honey ka gham, bachoon kei masoomiat khatm honey ka gham...kaisey khatm hoei masoomiat? Iss yaqeen kei khatm honey sei kei ghar kei char diwaari woh faseel nahi jisey gola barood cheer na sakein. yehi tou hota hai bachoon ka yaqeen, kei unke maa baap unhein hur museebat, hur dukh sei bacha saktey hain, Khuda kou bachey kahan jantey hain, yehi tou un ke Khuda hotey hain, yehi yaqeen tou pehchaan dilata hai Khuda ka, ab yeh bachey kiss ka yaqeen karein? Kiss khuda ka?

Aur hum? Hum kya karein? Cheekhein, chilaein, qalam azmaein, sadkoon pei aaein, laikin kyun? Kiss kou bacha paein gei hum? Hur maut, aik mayoosi choodh jaati hai, akhir taqat kei phir fath hoi aur kamzoor phir mara gaya...kaisey na mara jaey, uss nei apna rasta khud chuna jub kei ussey tou haq tha hei nahi aisa karney ka. Kiss nei diya ussey yeh haq? Hamas kou chuna? Ab bhugto! Yehi hai tumhara anjaam.....

2022 as a Watershed Moment in Climate Change Discourse

 When history is written, 2022 will be seen as a watershed year when all predictions by climate scientists will be seen to have come true and in public eye!   The year began with a scorching heatwave in March across India, Pakistan with temperatures crossing well over 40C. Temperature of 49.7C was recorded in Nawabshah in Pakistan. These temperatures were the highest ever recorded in March in this region since records began in 1901.   In Bangladesh, from April to July, the country was hit by the worst floods in its history, killing more than a 100 people and displacing millions. According to news reports, most people died from drowning, snake bites and lightening. When the floods hit in April the rice crop was standing in the fields and only half ripe. For a country of 160 million that relies on rice to feed its people further disaster awaits in the guise of crop failure and famine.   https://www.independent.co.uk/asia/south-asia/flood-in-bangladesh-death-toll-...

Choices...

Everyday we make choices. Big choices, small choices, green choices, important choices, insignificant choices....but we make them without realizing that we have a choice. So many times the choices we make are not real choices but are made for us by forces outside of us. First and foremost we are persuaded by advertisement, through billboards, pop ups, television, newspapers or by advocates who have already realized their power to choose. Without educating us they advocate for their choice and we are swayed. Strong advocates for atheism, going vegetarian, going green, going organic, the list goes on. Then there is a modern and current sway which catches us unawares. You are caught in the domino effect and don't even realize your own conversion. And its a strange conversion because you always were what you suddenly start claiming but now you have to define your self, you cant choose to live in the border area, you have to declare. Not only that you have to now start defending your po...

'I am The Truth'

Truth has always been subjected to subjectivism and denied any objectivity! This ofcourse pleases those who set standards for what is right and what is wrong and truth is judged according to these standards. We are thrown aback with a deluge of  lies so that standards are inverted and lie becomes truth and truth lie. This is surely not a modern phenomenon we already have a metaphor from the 9th century in the form of Mansur Al-Hallaj. Even if most people do not know the whole story of his trial, imprisonment and subsequent execution, we all know he stood up for truth. He is a symbol of truth. Hussain Ibn Ali before him in the 7th century stood up in a similar way with a handful of people by his side to show that truth was objectively true and there was no such thing as a subjective truth. Hundreds, thousands, millions or a billion people believeing in one thing which is not true does not make it 'their way of looking at things' and 'true for them'...
