My friends and acquaintances include people from every ‘Qamash’. Among them are poets, storytellers, musicians, teachers, but also “very teachers”, scholars, politicians, and rulers. There are dervishes, ayars, zahids, doctors, patients, so the whole variety is there, these friends are spread at home and abroad, besides them there are Facebook friends, none of them have a “face value”, I live among these friends all the time. Afzal Humble is a dervish man, a lyricist, a musician, a columnist, he has written many songs for Ataullah Isa Khelvi, he has also composed the lyrics of some, today he has sent a very meaningful message on my wall which is like this. have been India’s economic development and superiority over Pakistan in other areas is beyond doubt, we can be ashamed of it and even make a world, but now the situation is different, PTI ‘cheetahs’ are indirectly busy reading stories of India these days. They do not sound like a friend but like an enemy on Pakistan, abroad the “Pakistani” All Youth also took down the Pakistani flag and made it cry under the feet, if they find a Pakistani on the head, whether it is a man or a respected woman, it is not related to the political ideology of the young man, then they end the misbehaviour, misbehaviour is the culture of this party, it is millions of millions of millions. With the votes, the people shout at the elected politicians, standing outside their houses and abusing them and they have learned all this from their leader. These are the people.Those who attacked, set fire, looted military installations in GHQ, Corps Commander House, Kent and other cities on May 9, they also attacked the memorials of the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for us. And all this has happened after the establishment refused to further support the government formed by them, first they and their leaders used to read the stories of General Bajwa and also extended the tenure of this person in recognition of his services. And his wife was harassed . This story does not end here, but since then these people have been attacking the Pakistani army. Surrendering to India is an unforgettable tragedy, apart from this tragedy, the corruption of some generals is also being made public and all such other activities are being repeated. Which creates hatred for the army in the hearts of the people. The height of this hatred was seen on May 9, when military installations and martyrs’ memorials were demolished, I only object to why you suddenly remember all these things. Different sections of the nation have been presenting their point of view as a Pakistani for a long time. Dr. Ayesha Siddiqa even wrote a full documentary book on this subject, but as long as the establishment carried you on the shoulders, Imran Khan kept reading its stories, but when it was not possible to bear this burden, then in your eyes, this beloved villain of yours became a villain, not only this, but if today or any other occasion, the establishment will fulfill your leader’s passion for power. If you think, you will become his guardian again. I will not say that the trial is a condition because this trial will put the nation to a big test once again. I am not at all happy to write this column, but when a Pakistani removes the flag of Pakistan from a Pakistani embassy and puts the FLAG of PTI there, tears the Pakistani passport and throws it in the dustbin and the LEADERSHIP of PTI, even its supporters do not condemn it, then it cannot be kept silent. In the end I will only say that God guide them. Pti’s favorites living in Europe and America have settled their own world apart from us, if God forbid Pakistan is harmed, then those who love their land will come under attack, nothing will happen to them, perhaps that is why India cancels the passports of those who leave the country and thus they have to come to India with visas.
The children are no less than a gift from Allah almighty for man, if the son is a blessing, then Allah has declared the daughter as a mercy. The daughter is a rare flower blooming in the courtyard of the parents, just as the parents bring themselves to every stage to save themselves from every pain and sorrow. When a father hands over this flower to someone, he knows what goes on his heart or God.
In today’s time, parents are so worried about the marriage of daughters that for the marriage of the daughter, they fill themselves with their own debt. Dowry is a common term that is called the goods given to a woman at the time of marriage. These items are usually assigned to the groom’s parents or the groom’s family before marriage. The method of determining dowry may vary from country to country and culture. This is a pureLy Indian ritual known in India as “Tilak”, in the ritual of Tilak, the bride’s father sends money and other goods to his future son-in-law’s house before marriage.
Nowadays, this ritual is spreading rapidly like a demon not only in Pakistan but also in many countries. The curse of dowry has made the lives of millions of sisters and daughters hell and has brutally strangled the colorful dreams of the future living in their eyes. The treatment meted out to a girl for not bringing dowry is intolerable. Parents who raised the daughter of Palpos give her some gifts while leaving the door of the house, which is a natural process due to the love of the children, but in the present era, these gifts have been made a request program. I will increase the honor and she will be happy, but neither the honor in the girl’s in-laws increases nor the period of happiness increases.
Which the girls have to fulfill to save the girl’s happiness and home, whether they are settled or not. People are of the view that dowry can be a way to keep a girl happy in her in-laws, due to which it has become the most important issue of the society, dowry is like taking bribe in a way. As if both are equal partners in sin. Dowry is not necessary, but some consider it an important part of marriage. Earlier it was a social ritual, now it has become oppression, where when daughters are born first, they are considered as mercy, when they reach the age of marriage, they become troublesome. Some people associate dowry with the Sunnah of the Prophet
According to the Sunnah, The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had ordered some household items through Hazrat Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) with the money of Hazrat Ali Salwa on the marriage of Princess Islam, Hazrat Bibi Fatima Salat, which was not dowry in the surname, because the goods were from the money of Hazrat Ali Salat. Some scholars say that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had given this item to his daughter on his behalf, if the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) bought goods on his behalf and gave it to his daughter, then the things mentioned in the narrations were only those things of household necessity which were used daily. So it is wrong to associate it with the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Dowry is neither an integral part of marriage nor is it necessary for every father to give dowry to the daughter. The meaning of the word dowry is not to give the term dowry, but to manage and manage the need, for Hazrat Fatima Salat, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) arranged these things on his behalf and with his own money as the guardian of Hazrat Ali Salat.
Nowadays, this ritual has also become such that the boys of the poor house are also marrying the girls of the families with more wealth and more assets and the girl of the poor house is spending the passing days of life sitting in front of the parents. It is a demon that is not only spreading rapidly in the society but is also spreading its roots in the human mind so much that the desire of human beings is increasing day by day. Instead of leaving the girl in two couples for marriage, it has become necessary to arrange a complete function and other meals. We often see people finding fault with wedding food. Food is dull, tasteless, there is a sentence to say that people take out of the mouth, this sentence is no less than an arrow that hits the heart of a father, he not only hands over his liver to someone but also puts all the savings of life. This is a harsh reality of society that we see every day as silent spectators. Sadly, we deny this fact knowing it. Some parents give dowry to a child by filling them with the capacity.
And ignoring other children is sheer injustice. The problems in Pakistan are so full that no attention is being paid to solving them. If the marriage is in accordance with the Sunnah, then many wasteful expenses can be avoided if people change their thinking a little and give the girl the same respect and status that religion has given them, then more than half of the riots in the society will end. After marriage, keep in mind that it is the responsibility of the husband and not her parents, think a little and try to adapt yourself and Islam.
Momentary companions of the world of words, ladies and gentlemen. Today we are starting the last lecture of our series of Urdu darus.
Spelling and pronunciation:
Due to the inattention of our semi-literate generation to Urdu, the new generation’s indifference to Urdu is due to many reasons. Such mistakes include the use of axle, zir, zubar, pesh… and the use of tahrir, etc.
See the example:
In Arabic, if you read it under the z, it means the one who waits ( faal ) – if you read it with a zabar on the z, it means – what is waiting (mufawal) – so are many other words.
An Arabic word. Which was used in the Holy Qur’an- Ahsan-ul-Qass, Ahsan calendar — in our country, this name is used as an adjective, and it is called ‘Ahsan’ as a fashion. If there is a interrupted and it is named wrong, this mistake is maintained as it is. Although it is a word of the Qur’an and the Qur’an defines its meaning. That is why it is a mixture of three words, the Arabic word insha-Allah. In Urdu, it is often used by writing Inshallah, whereas insha Allah it is right and clear to write in this way. which is wrong.
Arabic word. Morality is also read only because there is a general impression that the people of Punjab. They use zabar more often- its correct pronunciation is — it is a blank — (however, read the page to the page. If you read every day, it is wrong. )
The example of Assalamo alaikum has already been given- it is also an Arabic composition. That’s how he should write and speak.
One word – naqad peace – which would have been written as peace because of the sahoo scribe. Even today, in the newspapers , the fear of peace is written – (A few newspapers, including war – he corrected this mistake a few years ago . . .The Arabic verb is ‘iqra’, which means ‘read’, it’s not a noun, but in most of our Muslim families, their daughters are named ‘iqra’ as ‘tabrik’. (Those who have kept it, they go down to the unintentional act of this mistake and run over the one who points out the mistake… Keep your knowledge with you, there are other such mistakes.) Sometimes he gives an absurd and unmatched example of such a mistake in favor of his mistake that as a member of the nation, he gets burnt to the kebab, for example, the constitution of Pakistan has not yet been implemented, you are removing our mistakes.
According to Iqbal
,آئین نو سے ڈرنا طرز کہن پہ اڑنا
منزل یہی کٹھن ہے قوموں کی زندگی میں
When his name was pointed out to a gentleman, he got fed up and said, “The world has reached the moon, you are still trapped in the circle of darkness. It is not my job to send it to the moon, those whose work is doing it. I’m not stopping them, nor will they get a ticket to the moon by checking the wrong or correct pronunciation of those who go to the moon. To call our things bad as fashion or to believe only our own things under ignorance – both of these behaviors point to our intellectual weakness. Every dominant civilization leaves its impact on the oppressed civilization. There is nothing bad about it, but it is not a good thing to simply copy them without any utility.
However, let us return to our topic. In poetry, both mah and mah are used. But when we name someone Mah Vish, we call him ‘Mah Vish’ with great care. The original pronunciation is ‘Mahush’, in the same way, Shamsher means sword. When we name it someone, shamsher (Ali Khan) uses zuber on the other sh.
they call. urdu
In the case of naming also, the prevailing attitude is useful … we take into account the prevailing words and good sound – the meaning is ignored – for example, the tyrant name is often kept. But we do not think that ninety-five percent of its ninety-nine names are also of Rahimi and Karimi. Not only mantakam, qahar, jabbar, jabir. What are they calling tyrants? Do you name him after other names of Allah? Not! Many names of Allah choose such names because of their favorite sound. And the proof is that this is the name of Allah.
Likewise a name. Shams-ul-Qamar is also kept- which is absolutely meaningless, but its sound is also good – it is written in the Qur’an – Wal Shams wal-Qamar – but Shams-ul-Qamar is not written. It is also written that Parvez was not named in Muslim families in reference to the unfortunate Khusro Pervaiz. But the name of the great scholars is also Pervez). However, a little caution is also necessary in this regard, especially in the case of naming in Arabia and Ajam. It is better to keep this in mind (I do not want to get away from the topic by quoting examples of names and their literal meanings).

There are people who stand with us in our moments of happiness, and during times of difficulty, we often encounter them on the streets and at intersections. They wear colorful clothes and makeup to attract attention. Transgender people are individuals whose gender identity differs from the gender they were assigned at birth. “Trans” is often used as a shorthand for transgender. When we are born, doctors typically assign a male or female label based on our physical appearance. Most individuals labeled as male at birth ultimately identify as men, and those labeled female at birth usually grow up to be women. However, some individuals’ gender identity doesn’t align with their birth assignment. Most of these people refer to themselves as transgender. A transgender woman lives as a woman today but was assigned male at birth. A transgender man lives as a man today but was assigned female at birth. Some transgender people identify as neither strictly male nor female, or as a combination of both. People realize they are transgender at various ages. Some recognize their transgender identity at an early age, while others may take more time. Recognizing one’s identity and deciding to embark on gender transition can involve considerable reflection for many transgender people. Some transgender individuals may not conform to traditional gender roles, expressing their gender identity through behaviors, speech, clothing, hairstyles, and other means. Adopting a new name that better reflects their gender identity is also common. While not all transgender individuals choose medical interventions, some opt for treatments such as hormone therapy, surgery, and other procedures to align their bodies with their gender identity. Transgender individuals face the risk of social harassment when they reveal their true selves to others. Parents, friends, classmates, and neighbors might not accept them, leading many transgender people to fear rejection from their loved ones and society. In Pakistan, the transgender community encounters numerous challenges. Transgender identity remains taboo, causing people to distance themselves without understanding their struggles. They encounter difficulties in accessing education, employment, and basic human rights. Moreover, they face violence and social exploitation. Due to lack of support from family members, they are more susceptible to developing psychological problems and experiencing suicidality. Trans rights are human rights; our paper’s purpose is to bring international attention to the dire state of mental health within Pakistan’s transgender community. Gender dysphoria, distress caused by the incongruence between one’s gender identity and assigned sex at birth, significantly impacts some transgender individuals. Gender dysphoria is the medical diagnosis for this emotional distress. However, not all transgender people experience gender dysphoria. Being transgender itself is not considered a medical condition. Nonetheless, due to widespread discrimination and stigma, many transgender individuals deal with physical and mental health issues. Living in a society that tells them their deeply held identity is wrong or deviant, some transgender people lose their families, jobs, homes, and support. Some even experience harassment and violence. Transgender children might face rejection, emotional abuse, or physical abuse at home, in school, or within their communities. While these experiences are challenging for anyone, for some individuals, they can lead to anxiety disorders, depression, and other mental health conditions. Importantly, these conditions do not stem from having a transgender identity but rather result from the intolerance many transgender individuals encounter. Many transgender people, especially those who are accepted and valued in their communities, lead healthy and fulfilling lives. Transgender individuals deserve the same dignity and respect as anyone else, and they should be able to live and be respected according to their gender identity. However, transgender people often confront serious discrimination and mistreatment at work, school, and within their families and communities. For instance, transgender people are more likely to be fired or denied jobs, experience harassment and bullying at school, become homeless or live in extreme poverty, and face abuse and violence. Living without the fear of discrimination and violence and being supported and affirmed in their true selves are crucial for enabling transgender people to lead healthy, safe, and fulfilling lives. In recent years, changes in laws, policies, and attitudes around the country have allowed more transgender people than ever to live fuller, safer, and healthier lives. Our aim is to raise global awareness about these issues, prompting relevant authorities to take action. Special attention should be given to the protection and education of transgender individuals. If they are dealing with psychiatric disorders, healthcare professionals should be available to help them. It is their right to live peacefully and independently in their country. We must accord them as much respect as we do to other humans. They are human beings, just like us, and we must provide them with job opportunities and educational facilities to alleviate poverty.
Karbala: This event revolves around the brave Hazrat Hussain Ibn Ali (A.S) and the sacrifices and hardships endured by him and his family. Hazrat Hussain (A.S) is the son of Hazrat Ali (A.S) and the grandson of Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W).
The Battle of Karbala was a conflict between Good and Evil, with Hazrat Hussain (A.S) confronting Yazid. On one side, Hazrat Hussain aimed to safeguard Islam and its laws, while on the other, Yazid, son of Muawiya, sought power and authority.
Background:
A sequence of events led to the Battle of Karbala. Initially, Hazrat Ali (A.S) engaged in several battles against Muawiya to uphold Islamic laws. Subsequently, Hazrat Hasan had to sign a peace treaty with Muawiya to protect the Ummah. Yazid aspired to become the caliph and sought Hazrat Hussain’s (A.S) loyalty. Due to disagreements, Hazrat Hussain opposed Yazid’s rule, escalating tensions.
Yazid employed power, bribery, threats, and force to establish himself as an Islamic ruler after people initially rejected him. As the true representative of Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W), Hazrat Hussain (A.S.) adamantly rejected Yazid’s claim.
Yazid dispatched Walid Ibn Utbah to Medina to secure Hazrat Hussain’s (A.S) allegiance or his head. Hazrat Hussain (A.S) moved to Mecca with his family, responding to the people of Kufa who wanted him as their leader. He sent Muslim Ibn Aqeel to assess the situation. Learning of Yazid’s assassination plot, he left for Kufa to confront Yazid.
En route, Hazrat Hussain (A.S.) learned that Muslim Ibn Aqeel had been executed. He continued with his companions and family. He encountered Hurr al-Riyahi’s army, initially an enemy, who later joined Hazrat Hussain’s (A.S) cause.
The Battle of Karbala:
As Hazrat Hussain (A.S) reached Karbala, he faced Ibn Sa’ad’s army. Hazrat Hussain (A.S) negotiated with Ibn Sa’ad, seeking permission to leave, but opposition from Shimr Bin Dhil-Jawshan led to a siege. Umar Ibn Sa’ad, pressured by consequences, chose to battle Hazrat Hussain (A.S).
On the day of Ashura, Hurr joined his forces. The battle began. Despite being outnumbered, Hazrat Hussain’s (A.S) followers fought valiantly. As the day progressed, most were martyred, leaving only Hazrat Hussain (A.S) and his family. His infant son, Ali Asghar, was slain when Hazrat Hussain (A.S) sought water.
Facing overwhelming odds, Hazrat Hussain (A.S) prayed for strength. Finally, Hazrat Hussain (A.S) was alone among thousands. Wounded and surrounded, he was killed by Shimr.
The bodies of Karbala’s heroes were left in the desert, later buried by Bani-Asad. Umar Ibn Sa’ad took the women and children as prisoners.
Karbala is a testament that truth and justice endure against evil. May the sacrifices of Hazrat Hussain (A.S) and the martyrs inspire us to stand for righteousness, even in adversity.
“Death with dignity is better than a life of humiliation.”—Imam Hussain (A.S.).
Globally, unfair prejudice and discrimination against individuals who identify as transgender, often referred to as transphobia or trans bashing, continue to persist. In Pakistan, the transgender population, known as “khawaja siras,” faces extreme exclusion, leading to demeaning practices such as being compelled to stand at traffic lights and entertain onlookers for tips by clapping and dancing. The reasons behind the prevalence of transphobia in Pakistan are multifaceted, involving social, religious, and cultural elements that interact to promote discriminatory beliefs. The exclusion of transgender people is influenced by traditional binary gender norms and a lack of awareness about diverse gender identities. Rejected by their families, they frequently endure homelessness, limited access to education, and discrimination in employment. “Being Trans is like being a secret agent; you have to hide your true identity from everyone.” This compels many transgender individuals to resort to survival activities like begging or performing at traffic lights. The practice of coercing transgender individuals to stand at traffic lights and amuse passersby is one of the most disturbing outcomes of transphobia in the country. Beyond stripping them of their dignity, this practice exacerbates their marginalization by perpetuating misconceptions. These individuals, often adorned in vibrant attire and cosmetics, are dehumanized and reduced to mere sources of entertainment. Their performances, involving dancing and applause, tragically mirror how society exploits their vulnerability for financial gain. Societal pressure tragically forces transgender individuals into these degrading behaviors. The cycle of prejudice is fueled by the lack of acceptance and understanding surrounding transgender identities. Prejudice and misconceptions contribute to social exclusion, limiting access to employment, healthcare, and education. In the absence of legal safeguards and anti-discrimination laws, transgender people are left with few options, often resorting to degrading behaviors that perpetuate the cycle of transphobia. To counter misinformation and prejudice, education becomes a pivotal tool. Incorporating multiple gender identities into curricula can cultivate empathy and understanding from an early age. Additionally, sensitivity training and awareness programs in workplaces, schools, and communities can challenge preconceptions and foster acceptance. Legislative action is crucial in breaking the cycle of prejudice. Empowering transgender individuals requires implementing anti-discrimination legislation and policies that protect their rights. Equal access to opportunities in healthcare, education, and employment must be enshrined in the law. Furthermore, supporting transgender individuals in developing their skills and securing meaningful jobs can help break the cycle of exploitation. As expressed by JOYITA MONDAL, the First Transgender Judge of Lok Adalat and a social worker, “All governments want to appoint one person from a marginalized community to a prominent position so that the voices of others in the community are silenced. I won’t allow that to happen.” Media plays a substantial role in shaping public perceptions. Positive and respectful portrayals of transgender individuals in the media can dispel stereotypes and humanize their experiences. By showcasing their talents, achievements, and challenges, the media can counter the objectification that fuels the harmful cycle of exploitation. In conclusion, the transphobia faced by Pakistan’s transgender community is a deeply ingrained issue requiring urgent attention and action. Forcing transgender individuals into degrading performances at traffic signals underscores how society’s discriminatory attitudes and practices have marginalized this vulnerable population. It is imperative to treat transgender individuals with dignity, respect, and the freedom to live authentically, devoid of discrimination and exploitation. All they seek is reassurance that, regardless of gender, they will continue to be loved just as they were before.
Introduction:
Africa’s rich geological landscape has long been a source of fascination, economic opportunity, and danger. While the continent boasts an abundance of valuable minerals and resources, the pursuit of these treasures often comes at a high cost. From environmental degradation to hazardous working conditions, dangerous mines in Africa have left an indelible mark on both the land and its people. In this blog, we delve into some of the most notorious and perilous mines that have shaped the continent’s history and economy.
1. The Big Hole – Kimberley, South Africa

South Africa’s infamous Big Hole Located in Kimberley. This abandoned diamond mine is one of the largest hand-dug excavation sites on Earth. Operating from 1871 to 1914, the mine reached depths of over 700 feet and was dug entirely by hand. The dangerous conditions for the miners, lack of proper ventilation, and the constant threat of collapse made this mine a perilous workplace. Today, the Big Hole serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost associated with diamond extraction.
2. Kankoyo Copper Mine – Mufulira, Zambia

In north to Zambia, the Kankoyo Copper Mine stands as a testament to the environmental hazards of mining. Once this site was one of the largest copper mines in the world. However, reckless mining practices led to severe pollution of the surrounding air and water sources. The mine’s operations released harmful chemicals, including sulfur dioxide, into the atmosphere, leading to health issues for both miners and local communities. Efforts are now underway to mitigate the environmental damage caused by the mine’s operations.
3. Blyvooruitzicht Gold Mine – Carletonville, South Africa

Our next stop takes us back to South Africa, where the Blyvooruitzicht Gold Mine paints a stark picture of the social and economic impact of abandoned mines. Once a thriving gold mine, Blyvooruitzicht fell victim to mismanagement and financial troubles. The mine’s closure left thousands of workers unemployed, and the subsequent environmental degradation and decaying infrastructure have left a scar on the landscape. This mine serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible mine closure and the support needed for affected communities.
4. Obuasi Gold Mine – Obuasi, Ghana

Venturing to West Africa, we encounter the Obuasi Gold Mine in Ghana. While this mine has a storied history of producing vast amounts of gold, it has also faced criticism for its dangerous working conditions. Accidents and fatalities have been all too common in the past, prompting concerns over the safety of miners. Efforts are being made to improve safety measures and working conditions, highlighting the ongoing struggle to balance economic benefits with the well-being of workers.
5. Marikana Platinum Mine – Marikana, South Africa

Our final destination takes us to South Africa‘s Marikana Platinum Mine, which gained international attention in 2012 due to a tragic and violent incident. A strike by mine workers over wages escalated into a confrontation with law enforcement, resulting in the deaths of 34 miners and the injury of many others. This event shed light on the complex dynamics of labor relations, economic inequality, and social unrest in the mining industry.
6. Kolwezi Copper and Cobalt Mines – Kolwezi, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)

The Democratic Republic of Congo holds immense mineral wealth, but its Kolwezi region exemplifies the dangers that can accompany these resources. Cobalt and copper mining operations here have been linked to hazardous working conditions, child labor, and rampant environmental degradation. The demand for these minerals, crucial for modern technologies, has led to a complex web of ethical and environmental concerns, bringing global attention to the dangerous practices in these mines.
7. Welkom Gold Mine – Welkom, South Africa

As we delve deeper into South Africa, the Welkom Gold Mine stands as a stark reminder of the intense pressures faced by miners. Carved out of the earth in the heart of the Free State province, this mine is known for its extreme depths, making it one of the deepest mines in the world. Miners in Welkom often work in cramped, hot, and perilous conditions, and the continuous seismic activity in the region adds an additional layer of risk to their work.
8. Mhangura Copper Mine – Mhangura, Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe’s Mhangura Copper Mine presents a complex tale of economic boom and subsequent collapse. This once-thriving mine fell into disarray due to mismanagement and economic turmoil. The closure left a community without jobs and a contaminated environment. The release of toxic mine waste into nearby water bodies affected both human health and the local ecosystem, highlighting the far-reaching consequences of abandoned mines.
9. Okiep Copper Mine – Okiep, South Africa

Returning to South Africa, the Okiep Copper Mine holds historical significance as one of the oldest mines in the country. However, it also serves as a stark reminder of the health hazards associated with mining. Miners here were exposed to high levels of arsenic due to the presence of arsenopyrite in the ore, leading to debilitating health conditions over time. The Okiep Copper Mine stands as a somber testament to the long-term health risks that miners often face.
Conclusion
Africa’s dangerous mines are a testament to the delicate balance between resource extraction, economic development, and human welfare. These mines reveal the pressing need for responsible mining practices, rigorous safety regulations, and sustainable approaches to ensure that the pursuit of valuable resources does not come at the expense of human lives, communities, and the environment. By acknowledging the perils associated with mining, we have the way for a more conscious and equitable approach to harnessing Africa’s rich geological treasures.
Fear is the name of an emotion that overcomes us, we fail, and if we overcome fear, we are successful. The fear of people in most of us is so full that our every action is based on people’s opinions rather than Allah. We are living in a society where we are surrounded by concern for others more than ourselves, people have so much involvement in our lives that simple life has become the most difficult and we have given this authority to the persons ourselves. A rich brother helps his poor brother out of fear of people instead of Allah, what will people say if I don’t help him? The father of a girl does not take a relationship to the boy’s house out of fear of the people, remember that Hazrat Khadija had sent a message of marriage to him himself, no one’s daughter is getting married. If we look at the Sunnah of the Prophet (s), khadija (a) was married to him at the age of 40 when he was only 25 years old when he was only 25 years old. Instead of simplifying complex things, we have made simple things complicated, we impose people’s opinions on ourselves so much that we spoil our own affairs, as a result, failure becomes a part of our lives. Knowing that persons are not happy under any circumstances, we are engaged in making people happy. It is not wrong to take people’s opinion, but it is wrong to keep yourself mentally disturbed by imposing this opinion on yourself. What will people say? This phrase is a common phrase spoken in our society as if we have dominated ourselves so much that we are living a life of pretense rather than being realistic. We pretend so much that instead of being ashamed of our own mistakes, we fight our case as lawyers and despite being ashamed of the mistakes of others, we decide as judges. We have become so dependent on people mentally and unconsciously that our every action has been done not to please Allah but to please the people. In some cases, we need human support, and the wise man is the one who does not allow this temporary support to dominate himself unjustifiably. What will people say, this sentence has imprisoned man like a chain and snatched his dreams from his eyes and scattered them in chairs. Those who care about people’s thinking at the beginning of a work fail in their work due to this fear. This sentence affects the whole personality of a person and he becomes a victim of inferiority complex. Life comes once, and most of us spend our whole lives in fear of people and ungrateful it. People’s fear dominates our minds so much that we cannot even express our opinions openly. If we are always in fear of people, we will never be able to fulfill our dreams. The world’s biggest disease What will people say? In today’s time, we are trying to correct others by being wrong ourselves, how good it would be if we correct ourselves instead of folks. Why don’t we think of our Lord, not of people, before every action? Will our Lord be pleased with us by our deeds? It is said that deeds depend on intentions and who knows the intention of a person better than Allah.In life, only those people are successful, who form opinions about themselves instead of people and please this God. Because when Allah is pleased, man will be victorious in every field of life, the first purpose of our creation is to follow the command of our Lord and to worship Him and praise Him. Think for a moment! If our breath is taken away from us today, what will we take with us in the Hereafter? Remember, people are people, they will say nothing, they can neither improve our world nor the Hereafter. A person who lives his life openly without caring for people’s thinking and tests himself on the scale set by Allaah, Then Allah is pleased with him because his action is not for people but for Allah. There are many people in the world who have made a name for themselves by working hard and struggling, regardless of what people say. If your every action is to please Allah, then your heart will be satisfied with your actions and insha Allah all will be good. Now it is up to us whether we want to live on the opinion of the people or according to the command of Allah Almighty. Neither rise nor fall Just give me so much perfection. Mold me into your color That the time should give me an example.
April 19, 2022 was the most challenging day of my life when I took over as the Minister of Planning, Development and Special Affairs. I faced numerous hurdles regarding the most difficult task of reviving the national economy destroyed by the previous PTI government.
My first step after assuming office was a meeting with officials of the Ministry of Planning, who briefed me about the latest situation in the Public Sector Development Programmed (PSDP) and CPEC. I was deeply disappointed to learn that no funds were allocated for development for the last quarter of 2021-2022. Surprisingly, for the first time in the history of the country, such a It so happened that funds were not kept for the last quarter of the year during the PTI regime. With a determination and under the guidance of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, I took swift steps to correct the deteriorating economic scenario. With the rapid increase in population, inflation and current account deficit, Pakistan’s GDP declined from $356 billion in 2018 to $346 billion in FY21.

(Former Minister for Planning, Development and Special Affairs)
Nowadays, the rationalist class is worried that if a seemingly sinful Muslim will finally go to Heaven, then how? And why will a humane disbeliever burn in Hell for the rest of his life ? Although there are answers to these questions in detail in the Qur’an and Hadith, rational and logical arguments are appropriate to convince rationalists. It should be noted that religion is the name of a universal program that covers all hidden realities. The creator of this program has conveniently made some realities clear to man through inspiration, he also encouraged man to discover hidden material facts. Which will continue to be revealed until the Day of Resurrection along with time and human efforts, while the rest will be revealed on the Day of Resurrection. The greatest reality is the reality of God, which will be revealed to mankind on the Day of Resurrection in the form of Divine Revelation. In order to fully understand this scheme or program of nature, human beings like us, with the help of reason and wisdom, keep hitting the tomic twins and will continue to kill till the Day of Resurrection. The facts that we have reached today, a thousand or two thousand years ago, man did not reach here. Logically, a thousand or two thousand years from now, man also has wisdom, logic and knowledge. In this system of research and exploration or this journey of awareness and awareness, “the motivation to discover material facts” is also included in the religious program, so no matter how far the air conditioner goes, cloning, crisper, or the magic of artificial intelligence, nothing disbelieves religion, but scientific discoveries are divine to us. Science does not discover anything beyond cosmic facts. There is a relationship between creator and creation or cause and effect in the whole universe. Man of every age puts the known or discovered facts into the fold of science. And religion to the unknown. This may continue until the Resurrection. If the man after the Industrial Revolution is different from the old man, will the man of today not be old? A thousand years later, when today’s man becomes old, where will we and our ideas stand? Therefore, logical thinking requires that we understand the whole scheme of nature and present our ideas and interpretations. On June 28, a learned columnist published in the Daily Jang asked why the kafir would remain in Hell forever and why would the Muslim finally enjoy Paradise? It should be noted that paradise is obligatory on a Muslim whether he commits a million sins and paradise is haraam for the disbeliever, whether he does a million good deeds. This view or belief is very clear and simple in nature. The number of glasses that rationalists use to see it just needs to be corrected. It is very important to have a visa to enter the United States. Canadian immigration also requires a visa. is
It is not possible to go and live anywhere in the world without a visa, so how can it be that there is no visa for paradise (this is the belief of all human beings) the highest place to live? Now the question is, what is a visa to heaven? Yes, the visa to Paradise is faith. To bear witness that Allah is one and that whoever is the Prophet or Messenger of Allah is true. Whoever dies or dies with this faith, Paradise is obligatory for him. Now the question is that one person is a believer but is evil deeds, but the other person is a believer as well as good deeds. I am also superior and superior, so how can both of them be close to Allah together? Yes, one of them will go directly to Paradise by his faith and deeds, while the other will enter Paradise after serving the punishment for his misdeeds through Hell or other means. Here we should assess the value of faith, which is like a visa to Paradise. The disbeliever will not be able to enter Paradise, but will remain in Hell. Here also we give the example of two people that one has neither a visa nor good deeds, while the other does not have a visa, but there are deeds that are very beneficial for mankind. Here rationalists believe that the first person may be in Hell, but the second must be entitled to Paradise because of good deeds. I request all such friends that just as no Pakistani in the world can live in America without a visa, even a disbeliever can enter Paradise without a visa. In order to understand more and understand the justice of The Lord of the Worlds, it should also be clear that God will not let anyone’s righteousness and even the slightest evil be wasted. There is a logical requirement of status and status. In Sura al-Rahman, one paradise and then another paradise have also been mentioned, which clearly shows that paradises are more than one and there is also a classification in Paradise.
Just as we pray that Allah will raise the ranks of so and so. These are due to piety. Let us now go to Hell. How logically is it possible that paradise has degrees but not hell? Disbelievers who are saved from evil deeds will logically live in a place of Hell that is relatively less terrible. So will the disbelievers who are human beings throughout their lives. Those who worked for the welfare or comfort of people, such as making air conditioners, inventing penicillin, or developing disease vaccines, should certainly not be kept with people who, like Hitler, would have killed millions of people. So it should be understood that entry to Paradise is not possible without a visa.However, the matter of punishment and reward is associated with deeds. The punishment for a Muslim is that he should taste hell before entering Paradise according to his deeds, and the reward of a disbeliever may be that his punishment should be reduced due to his good deeds. Therefore, the logical requirement of God’s justice is that the inventor of the air conditioner is due to disbelief. Stay in Hell, but get concessions according to good deeds. Similarly, there can be a provision of fire for the inhabitants of the snowy valleys and snow in Paradise for the inhabitants of hot areas, because this is the logical result of the general principle that whatever the jinn wishes will be fulfilled. At what time do you get acquainted with reality?
