MEDIA - The Growling Pain

Introduction & Background -

Centuries ago, people were introduced with a power, an opportunity to get updates on affairs, activities and traits of the world around them. The world started to recognize the power as medium of information spread out, hence naming it media.

Slowly but steadily media advances with the passage of time and new sources of information spread out were discovered. Starting from simple paper form, its journey continues to filmography. A point in time comes, when this pure source of social service was being converted into business & income generation. Big time investors started taking interest in using media as a source of income generation. Initially, people with learned minds came to the front and started projecting their culture to the world. Promoting their talents to the height of excellence, they eventually started digging the new ideas out, regardless of what it matters to somebody at perceiving end. It is then, it started losing its righteousness and it fell in the hands of strategists to develop business reforms for their own benefit and sake.

Media Today -

Today the journey of the media comes to the point, where multiple sources of information spread out are in use. Besides print & electronic media, people have now another category i.e; web/internet media commonly called as social media. Things are getting more & more advance, without boundaries giving limitless scope of information sharing to the people. People started sharing everything they found amusing & interesting. No matter, what impression it may have on the perceiving end, we are sharing every single bit of life on that media. Everybody has been given a right to express his thoughts and views, just as I am doing it right now. Whether its is one's love or aggression or whether its is one's amusement or sadness, its being shared on this media.

Effects and Some Questions -

It has both effects, positive as well as negative on the lives of many. The could be positive effect is freedom of speech and the could be negative effect is freedom of speech. The reason why I'm using "Freedom of Speech" for both effects is to pose some questions on sharing & discussion ethics of people, not to ban or restrict This Major Human Right.

1. Do we care what an impression it could have?
2. Did we just aroused hatred & agony or we have served the humanity with some facts?
3. Did we just tried to impose our own views on somebody, regardless of his/her own views & beliefs? OR we have given them a chance to think over it?
4. Did we tried to hide some true facts just to promote our own views?
5. What would be the effect of our own approach on people of other different views and culture?
6. Did we brought some good change or we have just ruined the centuries old "Golden Culture"?
7. Did we just tried to ruin some religious' deity's (Prophet, Their Companion, Imam, Priest, Scholar or some Holy Place) respect to struck a war of hatred, racism and satanism?

Summary -

We might have gone through these questions before but, let us revise these questions and answer them with a little more social and ethical responsibility. The responsibility which is an eternal duty of mankind since its inception. Culture to culture, nation to nation it may differ according to their values, but universal law of social ethics are still there and needs an understanding. Understanding for socio-ethical reforms, for cultural rights protection and for societal harmonization.

It is all what we can summarize in one sentence as "Knowing Your Limits". A process which is a very need of our today's world to bring harmony, to stop cultural abduction and to create a universal society, where eternal law of respect, peace & love propogates.

Don't just start doing at once what you have read, instead let yourself think over it, do some brainstorming and let yourself be more contextual than just a researcher.

May we all be in Good Faith, Good Health and in Good Terms. Ameen Sumameen

الله تعالیٰ کی مہمان نوازی اور دل کا محاسبہ

ایک ضروری تنبیہ: الله تعالیٰ ہر چیز سے بےنیاز ہے، نہ تو الله پاک کو ہماری عبادات کی ضرورت ہے اور نہ ہی کسی دوسرے عمل کی- یہ سب تو محض انسان کی اپنی بھلائی کے لئے ہے، جس کا اجر اسے یا تو اس دنیا میں ہی مل جاتا ہے یا پھر آخری عبدی زندگی میں جاکر ملتا ہے- اس تحریر میں الله تعالیٰ کی مہمان نوازی تشبیہی طور پر الله کے ذکر و دین کے آداب سے مراد لیا گیا ہے اور اس تحریر کا مقصد صرف یہ ہے کہ ہم اپنے دلوں کو ایک دوسرے کیلیے صاف کرلیں، کہ اس سے الله تعالیٰ اور ہمارے پیارے رسول الله (صلی اللہ علیه وسلم) کی خوشنودی سب سے زیادہ منسوب ہے

لوگ اکثر کہتے ہیں کہ دلوں میں تو الله رہتا ہے اور میں اسی سوچ میں کھو جاتا ہوں کہ کیا واقعی ایسا ہی ہوتا ہے کہ نہیں- کیا الله کسی کے بھی دل میں رہ سکتا ہے- یہی بات سوچتے ہوے میں زمانہ نبوت (صلی اللہ علیه وسلم) میں پہنچ جاتا ہوں، جہاں ہر مسلمان کی یہی کیفیت نظر آتی تھی- یہ منظر دیکهتے ہی عقل اس بات کو سوچنے پر مجبور ہو جاتی ہے کہ ایسا کیوں اور کیسے ہو جاتا تھا

اس بات کا جواب "الله کی مہمان نوازی" میں ملتا ہے، ایسے ہی جیسے کہ اس کو زیادہ پسند کیا جاتا ہے، اس کے گھر میں رہنا زیادہ پسند کیا جاتا ہے، اور اس کو زیادہ یاد رکھا جاتا ہے جو سب سے اچھی مہمان نوازی کرتا ہے- تو آخر "الله کی مہمان نوازی" ہے کیا اور اس کے آداب کیا ہیں؟

یہ ٢ ایسے سوالات ہیں، جنہوں نے بہت سے لوگوں کو صراط مستقیم پر چلنا سکھا دیا- ان سوالات نے ان لوگوں کو اپنے دل کا محاسبہ کرنے پر مجبور کردیا اور وہ رفتہ رفتہ اپنے دل سے گناہوں کا کچرا صاف کرنے لگے تاکہ اس میں بسی بو کو ختم کرکے، وہ اسے شریعت کی مہک سے معطر کرسکیں- ٹھیک ایسے ہی جیسے کسسی کی آمد سے پہلے گھر اور خاص طور پر بیٹھک کو صاف شفاف کرکے، اس میں ایئر فریشنر کیا جاتا ہے- یہاں پر آمد کا مطلب الله تعالیٰ کے ذکر سے تشبیه دیا گیا ہے

اب آپ ہی سوچیں کہ جب ایک دنیاوی مہمان کیلئے ہم اتنا خاطر تواضوع کا سامان کرتے ہیں، تو کیا خالق کائنات کیلئے یہ کرنا ضروری نہیں؟ اس میں تو کسی شق کی کوئی گنجائش ہی نہیں کہ الله پاک ہر چیز کا خالق و مالک ہے اور اس پاک ذات کو کوئی ضرورت پیش نہیں آتی، لیکن اس کے غلام ہونے کے ناتے ہمارا تو فرض بنتا ہے کہ ہم اس رب الآلمین کی خوشنودی کا سامان کرتے رہیں

اب بات آتی ہے کہ الله کی خوشی کا سامان کیا ہے؟ کیا "نماز"، "روزہ"، "زکات " اور "حج" سے یہ سامان پورا ہوجاتا ہے؟ کیا یہ سب کافی نہیں؟ بلاشبہ ان تمام کی اہمیت سب سے اولیٰ اور اعلیٰ ہے، لیکن یہ سب اکیلے پھر بھی کافی نہیں ہیں- ان سے انسان کا ایمان تو سجتا ہے، پر دل نہیں اور اسیلئے اکثر بہت سے لوگ یہ سب کرنے کے باوجود الله تعالیٰ کی کسی خاص مہر کے حقدار یا حاصل کردہ ہوتے ہوے نظر نہیں آتے- کیونکہ حقوق الله، حقوق العباد کے بغیر پورے نہیں ہوتے اور یہی وہ بھول ہے جس کی وجہ سے انسان تمام عبادات کے باوجود وہ مقام حاصل نہیں کر پاتا جو کہ ایک نیک وکار انسان کو ملنا چاہیے- ایک مقام پر الله تعالیٰ ارشاد فرماتے ہیں کہ "میں اپنے بندوں سے ستر ماؤں سے بھی زیادہ پیار کرتا ہوں-" اور اسی طرح قرآن کے متعدد مقامات پر الله پاک اپنے بندوں سے محبت بیان فرماتے ہیں

معزز قارئین اکرام، اب آپ ہی بتایئں کہ اس نفسہ نفسی کے دور میں، جہاں آج ہمارے دل منوں دنیاوی گرد سے اٹے ہوے ہیں اور ہم جانے انجانے میں روز کتنی ہی بار ان حقوق کی خلاف ورزی کرجاتے ہیں- اور اس پہ حالت زار یہ ہے کہ ان خلاف ورزیوں کی فہرست اتنی لمبی ہے کہ لکھتے یا بولتے ہوے انسان تھک کر چور ہو جائے- ان میں سے چند ایک کے نام یہ ہیں؛ غیبت، جھوٹ، بہتان، وعدہ خلافی، دھوکہ دھی، حسد اور ہر وہ عمل جس سے دوسروں کو نقصان پہنچے یا کسی کی دل آزاری ہوتی ہو- اب اس کیفیت میں ہم یہ بھلا کہہ سکتے ہیں کہ الله تعالیٰ ہمارے دل میں رہتے ہیں؟ ہمارا تو دل دنیا کی گرد اور برایئوں کی بدبو سے بھرا ہوا ہے، جب کے الله تعالیٰ تو سب سے زیادہ پاکی اور عظمت والا ہے

 

" ایک اہم آخری سوال: " تو کیا ہم الله تعالیٰ کی مہمان نوازی کرپاتے ہیں؟

بس اب صرف اپنے دل کا مشاہدہ و محاسبہ  کیجئے اور سوال کا جواب جانئے

-آپ سب کی سچی دعاؤں اور توجہ کی طلب گار

A Great Divide | Nationalism at the Verge of Partiism

NOTE: This article is not fully or even in any case partially discriminated. So, please don't get bothered of the words and sentences used in this article. Stay happy, stay calm and stay blessed.

Walking through the history of sub-continent Indo-Pak, when there was no sign of a nation called Pakistan. An era of dark British Rule, when people of the land were pushed down to less resources, low-level jobs and a low-class life. When Muslims of the land boycotted all government resources, including the main source of light "EDUCATION". Day by day British Oppression was getting stronger & stronger, diffusing all the resources specifically for Muslims.

The Hindus of the land were getting resources and some of them were even getting high rank jobs due to the source of light and hope "EDUCATION".

Then a noble Muslim stood up against all the odds of time to end this ruthless slavery and boycott. He posed a challenge to ruthless & biased british rulers and Muslim clerics. He was threatened to be declared as a Non-Muslim but, he didn't stopped. He had a vision of an educated, prosperous and a strong Muslim Nation. He wanted Muslims to stand in the feet of their forefathers, he wanted them to hold their true culture of literacy tightly, he wanted them to be dignified and united. He was none other than "Sir Syed Ahmad Khan" who started the struggle for a prosperous nation. He pulled out Muslims of the sub-continent from the dark shadows of religious human idolatry to end the boycott started by religious Muslim clerics. He propagated the vision of one unified, prosperous and educated Muslim Nation in sub-continent. This was the start of building a nation called Pakistan, where Muslims of the sub-continent can live freely, they can have access to every resource, where they have dignity & pride and where they can have unified rights.

This unified struggle continued to the time when leaders like Qauid-e-Azam, Allama Muhammad Iqbal, Liaqaut Ali Khan, Chaudhary Rehmat Ali, Mualana Muhammad Ali & Shaukat Ali Jauhar and other notable leaders took charge of building a stronger & prosperous Pakistan. Their move lead millions of Muslims to struggle for a Muslim sovereign state in the light of nationalism. The nationalists marched towards the completion of their historic vision of a free land, a sovereign state named as Pakistan by one of our great leader Chaudhary Rehmat Ali. A time when the nationalists were united as one Pakistani Nation. When nobody was punjabi, nobody was pakhtun, nobody was baluchi, nobody was sindhi, nobody was kashmiri, nobody was hazarvi, nobody was urdu speaking (caste), nobody was caste or ethnicity oriented...... They all were Just Pakistanis, They all were pure nationalists and that is why they all were a part of single unified nation called PAKISTAN. Everybody of them left behind their ethnic identity just for the sake of a Proud, Sovereign and Unified Identity PAKISTAN.

Now it has been 66 years that have been passed away since we got our independence and we are sadly seeing a destructive wave of partiism ending or in better words demolishing our proud Nationalism. Now we are seeing a political war, a political differentiation dividing this proud unified land into different geographical/ethnic identities. We and our so-called patriotic political leaders aired a wave of ruthless party base and geographical differentiation. Now we are more of a separatist than a Nationalist, we are becoming animals pet by our politicians and we are transforming ourselves into puppets being controlled by some pathetic politicians.

Where the hell are nationalists, where are the proud Pakistanis? Isn't just a label for us, now? Why can't we think for a positive, prosperous and stronger change for the Nationalist Revolt. Its not the fate of Pakistan, but its the result of our blind folded deeds that are making it worst ever. We always try to support and justify our parties, but never try to stood up only for Pakistan.

We should deem it as our dearest mother and should stood up for its love & affection that it needed. But, we are busy in giving foul names to each other in accordance with political parties and geographic boundaries, but thinking & caring for Pakistan as a whole one unified nation didn't stand a chance among us. Are we still Pakistanis anymore or not? Are we united anymore or not? Are we a Nation anymore or not? Is it that much needed to follow a political party for the betterment or to show the love of our dear Motherland - PAKISTAN? Can't we on our own work for the betterment of our God Gifted Land?

Our motherland is waiting to see the love of its Nation, not only when an issue against it arises, but all the time. It is dying in the empty hands of fake nationalists. Today it is being neglected by partiism, mindless party supporters, disguised separatists and ruthless political leaders. Today it is in need of unification, inter-country Confidence Building Measures and Need & Priority based Nationalists Solutions (e.g. Kala Bagh Dam, Thar Coal Project, Baluchistan Package in its true sense, Agricultural & Industrial Revolt and Priority Rights of Minorities) across all provinces and many other differences.

Please give at-least a moment to our motherland with a thought of countriism (Pure Unified Nationalism) and leave partiism far behind it. Don't think you can't do things alone, but think you can do it for the love of our Motherland - Pakistan. We are its power, not our political parties. Please for the love of PAKISTAN, end this ruthless Great Divide of partiism and ethnic differentiation. This divide is not the purpose of Pakistan nor its for our unity. Its for political parties to market their slogans to get the chance of ruling Pakistan. The struggle and formation of Pakistan is for us to build a lovely, lively, prosperous and united Pakistan.

Live for PAKISTAN or Live for Your Political Party 

Its Your Choice

But, Then Don't Blame Anybody for Severity in Pakistan

A Letter to ESTABLISHMENT

Over the past many years, I have been hearing about establishment. People from different school of thoughts have talked about it on charges of controlling the state affairs, including the most prominent involvement in control of elections & upcoming government.

I am the very nation which forms the companionship of Punjab, Azad Kashmir, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Islamabad, Sindh and Baluchistan. I am the very companionship of regions which forms our dear motherland PAKISTAN.

Unity | Question Mark or Exclamation

Time travels real fast... Isn't? Its like we are riding on a Ferrari or might be a speed boat or it might be a supersonic jet. Am I right?

I'm just saying whatever comes in my mind regardless of what it matters to somebody looking at the TITLE. Funny Isn't? Do I seem to be looking mad or out of my senses? Isn't true? My out of context beginning may brings out a need of laughter for you. Please don't hesitate, please keep going on laughing at me or just declare me mentally retarded or a senseless bully.

Because, I lost my senses, I'm gone out of my mind and I'm just about to loose my faith on humanity & freedom of living. I feel ashamed looking at the ruined bodies of my mothers, sisters, brothers and their lands. Did we just proved to the world that we are divided or to correct myself "We Are Dead"?

WTC Incident

Its just a matter of past some years that we have seen World Trade Center incident, which took many lives away. We have also seen the reaction of people and their leaders to it. How problems were cast to breach humanity and a battle was started to end the projected terrorism from the world. The world started to appreciate the battle, keeping a faith that justice has been done to humanity & peace.

The Hidden Truth

Drilling Oil or Dripping Blood

Is it done? Am I Correct? OR Am I Just Being So Rude? The so called supporters of "Freedom of Living" and "War on Terror" has showed off to the world their efforts. Showing off their interference in Iraq, Afghanistan and other states of the world as a fight for freedom of living. "Freedom of Living" or "Freedom of Exploiting Sovereignty"? We should've gone through the crude facts or either look for the other side of the picture. Shouldn't we? Oil Reserves, Geographically Strategic Location, Finding, Following and getting their own Interest. Could these elements be a motive behind all these activities. Think on it overnight, let these questions be answered, speak to yourself just this once, find the facts and you would be seeing another reality.

The supposedly war on terror gifted us drone attacks, cultural rights violation, political interferences and enemy slave weak governments. We have wept over the blood of our beloveds, we have lost our rights, our culture has been abducted by our enemies and what we have done... We have just welcomed with open arms to let them ruin our opportunities
      and make a fool out of us.

The 9/11 Comparison

Many of us might be defending and advocating these activities of our enemies as a step of modern & liberal state development. But, could they please open their eyes to see bloodshed of our innocent people, to see our brotherhood being ruined, to see the severe economic crisis we are facing right now and to analyze the epic misunderstanding of considering their (enemies) aids as a support to dunk the crisis.

Few questions need to be answered at urgent:

- What is the meaning of word "Taliban"?

- What is the difference between words "Taliban" & "Terrorist"?

- Who are Taliban and who planted them?

- How did "Yvonne Ridley" embraced Islam?

- How much bombing, USA has done on Afghanistan?

- Do you think "Osama Bin Laden" would've survived those

  bombings to escape to Pakistan?

- What is the difference between "George W. Bush", "Hitler",
  "Raymond  Davis", "Osama Bin Laden", "Menachim Begin",
  "Aimal Kansi", "Dr. Afia Siddiqui" and"Pastor Terry Jones"?

- Why US Forces took sudden interest in removing terrorism from
  the world, especially in Muslim Countries, specifically for
  middle eastern countries?
- Are the other parts of the world free from terrorism or are
  they less important?
- Why "Peace Claiming Bodies" of the world are trying to force
  down the nuclear projects of the other countries? Did they
  seized  their one's?
- Who backed and supplied firearms & Chemical weapons to Iraq
  in Gulf War?
- Why is America still be friends with Israel, when Israel is
  already violating Human Rights?
- Is that fight for our betterment or is it just just for
  their own interests?

Answer these questions just to yourself only, hammer your head to burst your thoughts out and please do some fact finding.

Humanity will survive only if we become united, preaching love, peace and not war. Didn't it feels like this war is imposed on us for someone's interests. Interests to impose their own policies/constitutions/standards. Interests to force their own supremacy. God has made us the most intelligent superior being and what has we done to us. We are just going with the wind like an object without knowing where would it take us. Please stop doing it, wake up and light up your mind. Do something for yourself, your beloved and for humanity. Differentiation and discrimination will nuke humanity. We have only one foremost culture i.e. love, peace & unity. Many parts of the world needs to be refreshed with this culture and the claimants of this task are quiet, unspoken, asleep, actually dead especially in case of Gaza crises.

Israel is continuously striking on the pact of peace & humanity. The supposedly powers of world or international claimants of peace movements (USA, UK & Others) are dead, watching the show of Palestine's destruction and abduction. Abduction of their right of freedom and right to live destroying their sovereignty by this inhumane / illegal occupation. Why isn't there any interference from peace claiming bodies/powers/authorities? Is it justifiable that people of Palestine were being killed mercilessly? Aren't they humans or are their lives too less important than the people died in World Trade Center or are they like some useless object to be thrown away? It seems like the supposedly powers are weak and inhumane to work for peace. Their claim is hopeless, meaningless and fake. They are fooling us from a long time, playing with our minds and now its about time to gather around to defend our right to live.

Recently, we have seen Shi'ite Killings and many other gruesome incidents happening in Pakistan. Isn't a question mark to authorities and for us. What are we trying to pose to the world? We are different from each others or what? Is it necessary to create a pathetic differentiation or is it compulsory to mix in the cruel system of these peace claiming bodies? Yes we have different faces, different colors, different status, different culture, different nations, different religion and many other things except our eternal fate i.e. "six feet under". All these differentiations that God has made is just for Identification and its us who turned it into a source of discrimination.

Come on, don't bully yourself, get yourself out of this creep, work your brains out, produce a solution and save humanity, save the world. Our brothers, sisters and mothers are already waiting for our help in Syria, Palestine, Kashmir, Laos, Burma, North Korea, Iran, Lebanon, Pakistan, India, Somalia and in many other places where tyranny of violence is endless. It is not about being Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Jew, Buddhist or about a follower of a specific religion...Its about being human.

Sorry, if I bothered you around to read this article while you were busy in advocating their (enemies) so called steps of liberation or being played in their hands like toys. The decision is all yours now, either being discriminated / divided / dead or woke up / step forward / stand united and fight against all the culprits of humanity.
