"Meri Tumhari ... Wohi Kahani " - Self-composed!

Tumhari Meri...

wohi kahani

Tumhare qissay

Meri zubani...

Wo qissa jiss men

tumhari motor

hui thi panchar

tumhaare ghar tak

gae thay paidal

wo raaste men tumhara israar

“Qareeb aao!”

meray “Nahin!” par tumhari takraar

Wo roothna wo manana phir se

Wo mera ghussa

Tumhare chehre ko dekh kar jo...

dabi hansi men badal gaya tha

Tumhari ankhon ne ye kaha tha:

“Kya mere chehre pe kuchh likha hai? :( "

Tou main ne halke se aagay badhh kar

Tumhari peshani choom li thi

Tumhari peshani pe jo ‘til’ tha

Wo mera dil tha!

Of Body and Soul : Seeking from the Sermon

This Thursday, I was up all night doing VC with an online friend. While we were busy sharing our guilty pleasures (and in that we went quite far), I heard Fajr prayers and realized that I had office next day. I wrapped up the convo and crashed into my bed instantly. 

Next morning, instead of getting up for office, I found myself texting my boss that I’m taking an off. When I woke up at 12.30 in the noon, all I wanted was to rush to the mohallay ki masjid and attend the Friday sermon right from the start. To me, this urge is nothing but natural as we, the working class, happen to offer Friday prayers during office hours and by the time we reach the mosque, the waaiz utters his last few words of the Friday sermon.

So, this Friday, after taking a Ghusl and ignoring the breakfast, I rushed to my area mosque and was lucky to sit in the first row. I was fortunate enough that Waaz (sermon) started after I reached the mosque.

Though the topic of the sermon was about the ‘malice, cruelty and downfall faced by today’s Muslim Ummah and the solution’, during this sermon, moulvi sahib described a phenomenon that kept me thinking for days. So much so that I decided I should share this with you guys and ask for your opinion about it. Here is a gist of the whole concept:

"A human is made up of two things. Jism (The Body) and Rooh (The Soul). When God created the body, he created it with filthy mud and clay. That’s the core of our bodies. However, the Soul was created by Himself. That’s why it’s the purest thing a human has. Both Body and Soul are merged as one yet both act individually. Now it is up to humans to choose which one they nurture and focus more. The earthly that is deemed to be mortal or the immortal soul that takes something from God in its making."

Taking this concept a lil practically, I started thinking how we can create a balance between body and soul. I mean body has its own hunger and thirst. At times, Lust overcomes all other needs of the body and we give in to the bodily desires. Our soul on the other hand tells us that it’s immoral. For those who still find their inner clock ticking, they can feel the hammering inside. It’s the soul that tells it’s not feeling well like its hurt or sad.

Here comes the dilemma…

Is it possible for us to fulfill the lustful desires of our body and yet keep our soul unhurt, unbroken and healthy? Can we have sex when our body wants and yet nurture our soul and keep it pure & sterile?

I strongly believe that those who find true love in this life would not find themselves perturbed and perplexed by this dilemma as their body and soul find themselves in harmony with each other and the act of one is so in consent with the wish of another

I would like to hear from my friends & readers as to what they think of this body-soul dilemma.

Encounter with a Pseudo celebrity

Before I go on about my brief chat with this moron actor, its good to give you a background as to why I approached him in the first place.

Yesterday, I was sitting in tv lounge with family and was surfing channels when I happened to watch this play on ARY Digital named 'Roag' ... the following scenes I watched in that particular episode were discomforting to watch with the family:

>In one scene, a working mother leaves her 7-8 yrs old kid with the chowkidar of the building as she had to run some errands in the hospital. Chowkidar's eyes watches the kid with vicious eyes and expression. THIS scene clearly showed his evil pedophiliac intentions...yet to be revealed and shown in maybe later episodes of the play (In God knows what manner)

>In another scene...a mohallay-ka-ladka ditched by the girl next door is accompanied by his friends who want to give him some good time with pot and porn when they spot the 8 year old sister of the girl who ditched the boy. They say mean things about the little girl and grabbing her wrist...take her to one of the friends' shop. This was the second discomforting scene. From the promo of the play...its pretty clear that the poor kid gets raped and faces the post-rape trauma till her youth.

The play points out at how the changing world is posing insecurities and challenges in today's world ... how the frustration of individuals ruin and affect adversely the lives of many. However, I'm surprised at the channel's decision to show a play dealing with a sensitive issue like Child Abuse at Prime Time. Even in an open society like US of A, they show such content in the post-prime time slot.

Anyways, very few would happen to read this post...half of them already wondering why the heck im sermonizing about a single bechara play when so much non-sense is already playing around us...lemme proceed with the pseudo-celebrity encounter:

Today morning, I was at a friend's place using FB on his laptop, when one of the leading cast members of the above mentioned play came online and I could not resist myself discussing my discomfort about the play with this guy and its timing and in response of my concern, he first told me that and this weird response was followed by a weirder request from him to LIKE this link which happened to be his FB fanpage.

As pissed off as any normal thinking person could be at this harkat of his, I tried to ignore his request. But as dheet as he was, he asked me again if i have clicked the LIKE button on his fanpage. Koi mujhse pochhe how much I hated FB for not having DISLIKE button at that time :(

It didn't end there! Since I was pissed off at his cold and cheap response to such a sensitive issue, I made an excuse and told him I was unable to follow him. This prick actually started guiding me through the other options to LIKE his fanpage.

This surely showed to me one more time how mean these non-cerebral celebrities can become in their non-sense quest of having a huge fan-base that they can boast of in front of their equally non-cerebral fellas :-/
