Our Policy OR American Policy - War on Terror OR War on Pakistan

This has been about a decade since the Pakistan took its first step into the War on Terror, since then Pakistan is been immersed into the mud from which it is hard to come out, but its not impossible. The below text is written inspired by a member of JI Bakhtiar Maani who speak on this topic in the national assembly a decade is now passing since this speech but this is still effective. 

11 years have passed since we are involved in war on terror, war on terror really; we are all amazed to see that why this war is not expanded to those countries which have larger part of non-Muslim community, why this war is only imposed to those countries which have above 90% Muslim population. We are not complaining to America, who we are, we are not Americans we don’t have a right to complain them, but we are Pakistanis and we have right to complain to our government and our security institutes, we must question what happened since Pakistan is a part of this so called war on terror, did the terrorism stopped? Did the drone attacks stopped? Did our economy boosted? Are we in peace? Can we move in our country with surety of our lives? No. Then what is the point to keep ourselves the part of this so called war on terror?

What is being said here is not a part of counter politics, and we don’t want to make it a part of our politics. But this must be discussed for Pakistan, for security and peace, for the lives of the people living in Pakistan. This war was begin with north western Pakistan and now each and every Pakistani is under death threat, involving our army and our soldiers they are also dying while becoming a part of this war.

It started when there was a attack which was done in a madarsa in Bajour, this was done in the Sehri time before Fajar, before the rise of the sun. Around 82 students were killed, these students include children from all age group, they were learning Quran, they were studying Quran, and some of them have learned about half of Quran while some of them have learned more of it. They were not terrorist, from among them there were 5 boys who belong to the same family, no one sends there own blood for terrorism, not all of them. We must clarify ourselves and not mix up different situations.

Then after some time it happened to have an attack in Dargai, it was at 8:30 in the morning, and there were about 35 soldiers which were killed in the start and some of them after that which makes it about a total of 42. The people rescued their own people; they were standing by side for any type of help which can be done for these injured people. After namaz e Zuhar a lot of people gathered for the funeral and prayed for those who were killed in this attack.

While some people are trying to co-relate these two incidents, no certainly not, there is no relation between the two. There is no such thing happened that some one might take revenge of Bajour incident from Dargai. These two incidents are the result of those policies on which we are acting upon. Please! Don’t make your army fight your own people and vice versa.

If we are against those who attack on madarsas we are also against those who attack on our own army, we condemn both of them. Those who were killed are the lovers of Pakistan they lived for Pakistan and they want to die for Pakistan, but sadly they don’t know that they became a victim of American policy. They didn’t knew that its Bush regime which is governing Pakistan.

Speaker, I talk about Bajour, this is said wrongly by Mr. Sher Afgan that there is no home where this attack is done. I will tell you there is are homes, there are mosques, there are people living there, if you don’t believe then we can make a committee which goes to Bajour and see at how much distance there are homes. BBC said that this madarsa is not even able to provide terrorism education to any one, it is such a small one, we can see only Quran there. You can say us criminal, but please don’t speak lies on the situations. Don’t say that they are terrorist they are students who were there to learn Quran. Please speak the truth. This attack is not done by Pakistani army (this speech was done when Pakistan took the responsibility of the drone attack by not telling the reality to own people, instead some official have said that this attack has been done by army on information that there are some terrorist which are hiding in that madarsa.) no person who have Faith in Quran can ever attack a madarsa. Because if they say that this attack has been done by American they we have to take actions against USA, certainly we can not do this so government is taking this responsibility on themselves, which is a lie.  No, this can’t be done, this matter can not be kept under files and closed, this is a matter to talk, and someone must have to answer it. I tell you, those 80 students funeral prayer has been done by the senior minister Mr Siraj Ul Haq, and he has resigned form his seat on this issue, Haroon Rasheed has also resigned from his membership of national assembly.

I know that most of the government official and parliamentarians are against this policy, even army officials are against this and want to get rid of this policy. Some said America is a so called super power, we can not take any actions against it, but till what time, we are being killed by them, we are still under attack in both the situations we have to die, then we have to choose to die in a good way, in the way which Islam tell us, not in that way in which America wants us.

I also ask our government and our army to revise this policy which is killing us each day. I know you are going that way in which you don’t even want to go, so take the right way. Revise the policy.

Sexual Harassment: Why not consider “men”?

I am so much amazed to see that whenever on the media and on the internet people talk on the topic of “sexual harassment”, the subject is always a “woman”. I think this is also normal to you, but this is a big question that why we leave men always behind when discussing on the topic of harassment. Some of you might say that this is not a topic of debate as there are no such cases yet reported, but if a issue is not reported in quantity you can not say that its not severe, there is always a chance that the victim might not get a platform to address this. Before reading onwards we must agree that yes gender discrimination is a topic as important as for men, as we think for women.

The first point is that no one is considering this matter as a “issue”, whenever in offices or institutes we describe the disciplinary actions on the unethical issue, we define the penalties for what will happen when a man harass a women but is there is never a criteria established for what will be action when the opposite of this happen.

Please note that I am not saying that whatever is being done to women in name of harassment or discrimination is right, no way, never, but my point is that give the same importance to the issues related to men as well.

Let comet o the professional area; imagine a scene when a men will try to get frank or to get close with a women, if the women feels insecure she will report it and quickly a disciplinary action will be done with the abuser which is good, must be appreciated. But think, when a female try to get free with a man without the permission of men, will the men have the same right, who is going to take action. Suppose if the men will report it to the administration no one will be going to take action on it in fact many of them will start mocking the victim.

Not only this, but all the things which are done which are harassing a male, whether it’s the improper  and immodest dressing of a female coworker which is diverting his mind, or the laughing talk, or same sort of such actions, is there any one considering that these are the matters which must be taken into account! They must be! However if we will not consider it this will certainly drag us to the point of no return and the time will come when the male will be tired of compromising with such situations and took the matter in hands which will against cost him against his career. So in all our institutes we should also consider this as well and take proper procedures to avoid this critical issue. 

Zero Dark Thirty, it goes fine but the end is tragic!

Just ended watching the Zero Dark Thirty, a movie in which USA got his possible target as well as Osama Bin Laden too. The movie describe how the mission was executed. The start of the movie is rather good for their lesson when they got the consequences of how they will be treated when they invade someone's homeland, when they got into Kuwait, Pakistan and Afghanistan to find the possible leads, they got failure in every lead they found, in a scene when a person who was the possible lead blew the car and takes their agents as well. But at the last they got the target with the help of locals. They invade the Pakistani border as shown in the movie and start operation kills several persons and at last hit their possible target OBL. Tragic, in the end of the movie the agent Maya who lead this whole operation cries herself...!

There are a few things I think that are shown in this movie are possible lies, for example,

They want to show in the movie that the helicopter was down crashed by their mistake and some engine failure, oh come on, people are not fools, those persons might took down the copter who are they operating against.

They waited a 130+ days to get the approval, oh come on, like you want us to believe that, the country who just blew off the whole houses in drone attacks without confirmation will wait for 130 days for a high target with a possibility of 60%.

This is my opinion however your opinion might deviate from this. So please comment!

Naseehat Apne Pass Rakhain!

Why I think Islamist should also participate in the field of political struggle.

One of a very good blogger Mr. Omer wrote something about the JI/JUI the political struggle which is being done by religious political parties and raised some questions which I tihnk needed to clarifies, because of we will not accept each other there will be formed more groups within groups among us and thus what I wrote the clarification is as follows, you can also read his blog:


I think by the above article first thing I noticed that what the author thinks is that JI is not doing what TJ and TI doing, the dars the dawat o tabligh JI is not absent from that field but politics is an additional job JI is doing, if you will minus elections fro JI it equals to TI. Talking of Ulema e Karaam, you gave the example of Imam Hanbal, he did not bent for what he though is correct, the same thing we are doing for "what we think is correct" this is not the following of western system, and it must be clarified that just like all other fields of life politics have e big impact on the lives of people and this field can not be remained empty or else, we will see a secular environment very soon. So Islamist should be involved in every field, if you think we are only into politics you are wrong.

In the 7th para, you showed a picture of "what if" wine allowed by parliament, I ask you what if Islamist not in the parliament then wine will be allowed without any hurdle, then who will be responsible? At least in that case we can stand up in the parliament and protest, and access to other parliamentarians and convince them on the issue.

Every one has their own strategies to work, for those people who think politics is the only way JI is there to guide, for those who think politics not the right way TI is there to guide and for those who think neither the two (JI TI) can help there is always TJ to guide. And for those who think every one is wrong there is always HT. All of them the objective is same is how to make our lives follow the same way Holy Prophet had followed.

Words like "religious political parties should leave politics" are harsh and they will result in the comment from religious political parties that "why dont you leave your areas of work and join religious political parties" OR "why dont Jihadis all over the world leave jihad and start mass movement, etc".

The need of the time is to accept each other and to collaborate with each other, bring people closer to Islam and its principles. May Allah Guide Us.
