While the lion was drunk the monkeys took over, and now they think they are kings of a temporary jungle, they feel pity for the lions. The monkeys love the mortal life and are intoxicated in this life.
Translating Facebook to Urdu
24
Dec
So I saw this translation link in Facebook, and to my amazement I found out that Facebook provides excellent tools to translate the core terms. Not only that a lot of people from Pakistan were already acting and helping translate Facebook to urdu. Even though Facebook is not such an important site which needs an urdu translation, but what I am trying to say here is that Facebook provides an excellent interface for translating the content. So technology and making things easy really do make a difference:
Qari Waheed Zafar

Qari Waheed Zafar has such a sweet voice, I remember PTV used to play a lot of his Naats on TV all the time. A simple query on Google will get you all of his Naats. But what you dont get on Google is about him, there is no information about him available on the internet, a search on wikipedia was useless as well. However help came from an unexpected source; Facebook! yes facebook, somebody has created a page about him over there, there is some more information about him there. This link goes there.
If you are reading this and you know about him more, can you please post a comment ?
Here’s a nice play list on youtube.
I have also uploaded my own copy of his naats which are located here: http://www.greensoftware.net/MSA/Qari%20Waheed%20Zafar/
Peshawar hit by a deadly blast, dozens of people killed
06
Dec
At least 20 people have been killed and at least 80 injured by a bomb placed near a Shia mosque in Peshawar, the capital of Pakistan’s North West Frontier Province.
At least 27 people have been killed and scores injured in a suspected car bombing in the north-western Pakistani city of Peshawar, police say.
These things make me so sad and now more angry then ever, these stupid illeterate taliban should be wiped out from every cave they are hiding in. They will surely burn in hell who ever is killing these innocent people. Enough is enough, people of Pakistan need to take action now. All these fundamentalists or more like illeterate brain washed idiots should be thrown out of the country, send them to Afghanistan where they belong.
Also today American missle strike killed three people so not only are Taliban killing people in Pakistan but also the Americans. Pakistani leadership should develop some backbone. When ever you look at any picture of Zardari like here it seems that he is so happy that he has fooled the whole nation. Such a big crook became president of a poor nation.
Halal eating in Helsinki: Kebabistan
29
Nov
If you are in a mood to eat meat then you should go to Kebabistan its very close to the kammpi station. The best time to go is during the lunch hours, you can check their web site for the timmings. During the lunch hours they have a buffet, where they serve kebabs, sometimes beef, sometimes chicken, along with some seafood and vegeterian stuff. The kebabs are always halal, but you should ask for chicken or beef. I thought their kebabs were really good, specially when are just off the grill thing, for 8€ I think its a very good place to go. The name is pretty funky, Kebabistan like Pakistan, hehe.
The guys there are turkish and were very friendly with us, when we told then we were from Pakistan, they were even more happy. I liked this place. But you may or may not, I sure would recommend this.
Mumbai incident and Indian media blaming Pakistan, like always.
29
Nov
Like always, the Indian ministers and the Indian medias does not take long to blame Pakistan for all the terrorist activities in Pakistani, for example if you watch this video, the reported already knows every thing, even before the seige is over. In fact he is describing it in such detail that it seems that he had practised it before. I just cant imagine how can India blame Pakistan for its poblems, If they treat the muslims in India well and give them respect then they wont have these problems.
It is also common knowledge that India actively interfers with affairs of Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. So just a little common sense is needed, India is playing its people to get support for may be something danegrous in the future.
I dont like when innocents die whether in India or Pakistan, but it seems that when people die in Pakistan, the world just doesnt care, remember the Islamabad Marriot bombings in Pakistan, it was a signature indian style operation, but no western media talked about it like the way this Mumbai event.
BBC: India-Bhutan rebel link exposed
16
Nov
from the artice on bbc
Separatist rebels from India’s north-eastern state of Assam have developed links with dissidents from Bhutan, Indian officials have told the BBC.
Previously Indian officials had blamed Pakistan for this without any kind of evidence, this is the mentality of Indian officials they blame every thing on Pakistan without any kind of investigation, just to get popular among their jahil people.
Pakistan unveils cybercrime laws
07
Nov
Quoting from the BBC news article at http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7714714.stm
Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari has issued a decree making internet crime punishable with death or imprisonment with heavy fines.
I am a bit concerned about this new law, this may give government powers to control the freedom of the Pakistani people and this law may be used agaist the very people it is said to protect, there may be other darker motives behind this. Zardari has a very shady pastm, Mr Ten percent might be upto something no good.
Infact this may allow government to just go and arrest any one.
