Time in Dubai with my bebees

30th Jan 2017
I just read my article I wrote few years ago when Aahmad was 3. I felt emotional and so its important I continue writing for my babies.

Aahmad- I have brought you with me to Dubai now. You are liking it here. New school, new house, new cars, new friends. I can see excitement in your eyes when you are going for your football lessons with Mamma. You are happy.

I am trying really hard to keep you and Arham happy. Sometimes I feel you are getting thankless. Or maybe you are not showing your gratitude for all these Blessings from Allah but acknowledge it. Maybe you dont want me to get too happy fearing that I will stop doing efforts. I dont know. This thought bothers me these days.

one more thing i am trying hard is to instill good behavior, love for others and religious knowledge in you. Dubai is a difficult place with so many options to get detracked. I need to fight all this to keep you on track. I pray hard as well for it as well. In the future if you are on the right track, you should thank Allah for all the efforts I put in so that you are under control and prepared for the future.

Junaid Jamshed- I know you!

Its 8th Dec 2016, one day gone to the tragic plane crash that took 47 lives in few seconds. I am selfish- The first thing I did was check the safety on my elder brother, a PIA cabin crew. He was safe (but sad). The next thing I turned to Geo news Online and thats when I read that Junaid Jamshed "The Pop Star turned Religious Scholar" was in the plane as well with his wife. I took this lightly at first. I didnt realize this will hit me so badly.
Junaid had crazy love for the sky and for the country. Perhaps, his brought up in a military family, His short time as GD Pilot Training course with Pakistan Airforce or maybe he being at the top of world during his singing career. The influence was obvious- You pick up his songs: Oonchi buhat Oonchi, Dil Dil Pakistan

Hum kyon chalein us rah per
woh raastay jin per mudh kar...kabhi na hum aye na tum aye...ab aya hoon tu yeh kehtay howe mahsoos hota hai, akelay phir nahin anaa
