I am not sure what to write cause i am not sure about the feeling i am having write now but yes i am alive, I woke up today early in the morning to a phone call by Anila asking me if i was alive i said yes i am alive and than she asked what about the accident and all, this made me quite confused for a while, i touched my hairs and rubbed them.. once i touched them i was sure this is not a dream. She asked me to check my facebook and my tumblr and told that both of them are hacked.
I saw tumblr and was quite shocked that the hacker was such a soul-less person to make a living person dead. Oh common, it was scaring the shit out of me that there are so many people online on the blog would be saying “Inna Illina wa Inna Illihe Rajaoun” for me. That scared me. Like OMG i was alive and they are praying for my magfirat i was like please stop this.. Soon i talked to my friend adil who then wrote about my existence. This lowered the hype down a bit and the hacker informed you all about the creepy stunt of his, i felt so broken up seeing your responses.. what a worse game he played with everyone’s emotions. I dont care if he hacked my tumblr but hacking emotions or playing with them was not required, may Allah lead him to a straight Path.
I will be opening up the latter story later tonight.
But before ending this post i would like to tell you that your responses made me literally cry today. OMG i love everyone so much. Your support was quite effective in burning up the evil hacker, his last posts made me sure that he was so so Jealous of what happened.
Live Long Everyone! Pray for me a bit today! (Ifeelabitscared :S)
and maybe Re-blog the post so that others who don’t know that i am alive could know about it and ease up..
Today all around Internet what I am seeing is just Maya, Maya, Maya Khan! Oh common people get over it. You guys have had much of it. For those who don’t know what actually happened read this:
Subah Saveera with Maya Khan on Samaa TV actually chases people sitting in a park and asks them why are they sitting there. Firstly it is NOT ILLEGAL for two people to sit [date] in a park, and secondly it was shocking to see the host andother women running and chasing after individuals sitting in the park to an extent of trying to trap them.In my opinion they exhibited highly intrusive, invasive and potentially irresponsible behavior - it is the kind of vigilantism which no different than the mob that cornered the two brothers in Sialkot and enforced their own reaction for the benefit of society, Maya Khan may have initiated a precedence today and may potentially open the door for chase and capture vigilantism - Irresponsibility of the highest degree
And This Video:
well I feel like sick! Oh people we all know that this was a cheap show and quite lame vulgarity but why you guys are pointing Maya Khan for this directly, she did it but it was like she had to do it for her jobs sake. She was just the host of the show and she had to do whatever was in the script. The script is to be checked by Samaa Television to see if that show could be produced and on aired. They allowed such a vulgar shit to be done and on-aired. She just did what was in her script. Why not target Samaa Television for all this vulgarity; they scripted it, they recorded it, they promoted such vulgarity.They should have thought about the consequences about what they are doing. Okay so now stop criticizing Maya. She did what she was ordered to do; she did it to make her money. The main culprit is Samaa Tv.
We all need to first analyze the situation and then pass our comments on such shit. Shame of Samaa Tv for this. I wish they get fined heavily for this, so that they may learn a lesson..
Share this real thing with people. Let them know the root problem and Get over Maya Khan.
We love shouting out load “Pakistan Zindabaad” But there are few who are working on a far extent on branding/improving the image of Pakistan. Today I came across Another reason to be a proud Pakistani. Read about such a person who is a well aged guy but his effort for Improving the image of Pakistan is great. The guy I am talking about is named as Jamil Ahmad, hes 80 years old and hails from Islamabad. Hes a former civil servant.
This guy had interest in the tales of Long-Forgotten Pakistani Tribes, well the history of tribes that used to exist is quite rich and one could make number of documentaries on them.
This guy almost 40 years back completed his first and last novel called “The Wandering Falcon”. His book, tells the stories of tribal chiefs, political agents and colonial officers in the decades before Pakistan’s tribal regions became synonymous with al-Qaeda and the Taliban. He completed it by hand and his wife typed it up. Later he took the novel to the London publishers but they rejected it and then it was left in a drawer and forgotten. It was when his brother entered the unpublished manuscript in an online competition as his novel was quite rich with a lot of history in it it got shortlisted a week back, he was named on the shortlist for the region’s biggest book prize, the $30,000 Man Asian Literary Prize.
The judges of the competition described the book as a “sensational debut” and a “blistering critique” of misguided attempts to stamp out tribal identity.
So guys this is a new hero made in Pakistan. An author who don’t knows how to type and whose story/novel got rejected by London Publishers is now one of seven writers shortlisted for the Man Asian Prize, which is due to be announced in Hong Kong on 15 March.
What a talented nation we are, lets utilize the talent in the right way and raise the name of Pakistan high in the world. Lets Pray that he brings the award home.

Share and spread another reason to be a proud Pakistani :)
I believe all of you must know about arfa kareem. If no? Then let me tell you that this girl was the pride of Pakistan. She at the age of 9 became the youngest Microsoft Certified Professionals (MCPs) in the world. This world record made her a youth icon. She was quite a genius kid. She is one of those few people on the world who had the privilege to meet Bill Gates. Despite this record, arfa was good at sports and academics.
She was quite good at poetry, which i admired about her. One of her poem is named as: The Power Of a Poet and the below is an amazing stanza from the poem.
Seeking an emissary to heaven’s throne? To whisper entreaties to Angels there; No better place to reach God’s ear than through the power of a poet’s prayer.
Despite her poetry this girl was a great singer aswell and can we forget her mesmerizing voice? Never! what an incredibly amazing girl she was.
This video shows when she sung Anokha Ladla (a gazal)
Just since December 2011 she had been admitted to Hospital due to a Fits attack and after which he had a heart attack, she went into coma and was stayed in coma on ventilators till now, Today is the day when earlier in the morning there was a news on t.v that she had shown improvements but just tonight she left us all. I wish may her soul rest in peace.
Her aims for Pakistan were quite high and this is why she inspired me allot. MashAllah. She aimed to make “a Digicom valley not similar to silicon but much better than that, which would not be made for a commercial propose but for the betterment of Pakistan and it would include an institute which provides free education, free health care and accommodation for anyone from anywhere in the world”
Arfa i wish you could have stayed more but Allah choose a much better place for you.
