Instill the true sense of Love for Prophet s.a.w.

Is it Muharram ? Oh its for Shias only. Is it Rabiul Awwal ? Oh now is the turn for Sunnis to claim 'Love for Prophet'. Isn't this the way we muslims behave now ?

I ask myself. What is the subject matter here ? Love for Prophet, his family & companions, right.

So irrespective of the fact that we are Sunni or Shia, and among Sunnis it doesn't really matter if we're Barailvi or Deobandi. What matters is that we all love Prophet Muhammad s.a.w & his family & companions.

Imagine for a second the day after Hijrat, when Prophet s.a.w made Ansaar (The Helpers) & Muhajireen (The Emigrants) brothers to one another. If we truly love Prophet Muhammad s.a.w. we need to become brothers with one another so that we can make Prophet Muhammad s.a.w proud & happy. Our roots are the same, Prophet, Family of Prophet & Companions of Prophet, and they all were compassionate, so if we truly love Prophet, his family & his companions, then lets show love for each other. Please instill the true sense of love for Prophet Muhammad s.a.w within yourselves.

Sherlock Holmes texts..

Sherlock Holmes is back & this time he uses cellphones (fond of texting) & applies nicotine patches.

BBC One has started a new TV Series Sherlock Holmes which shows a modern age SH, but with the same amount of cleverness & wit.

Just like myself, for every other Sherlock Holmes fan, this is an epic treat.

Check it out..

All because of you -- I am.

Father's day just passed & now its 21st June which is my dad's birthday so..

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ABBU JAN !

I'm missing you alot my friend, my mentor, my everything.

U2's song ALL BECAUSE OF YOU represents exactly how i feel about you dad, this is for you.

You've been my hero & you'll continue to be.

I want you to know that:

I was born a child of grace
Nothing else about the place
Everything was ugly but your beautiful face
And it left me no illusion

I saw you in the curve of the moon
In the shadow cast across my room
You heard me in my tune
When I just heard confusion

ALL BECAUSE OF YOU -- I AM.

 

Deep down inside i'm one of the biggest fans of Mehdi Hassan.

I was listening to this ghazal (Pyaar Bharay Do Sharmeelay Nain) of Ustad Mehdi Hasan about 10 minutes ago, i listened to it after quite a while & i love it so much that i thought to share it, then another ghazal of him got my eye (Zindagi mai to sabhi pyaar kia kartay hain) and i found that this one is also melodious so lets share it too on social networking sites so that my fellow friends could also listen to it.
When i was about to share these two songs, another song of Ustaad Mehdi Hassan tickled the strings of my heart & then another song & then another & then another & all these songs got into my playlist, now i was wondering which one to share & which i can spare...

I had like 7-8 of Ustad Mehdi Hassan's songs lined up in my playlist & i was confused which one to share because each one of it was so beautiful & melodious that i was unable to leave any one of those unshared, so i thought to write a post about Ustad Mehdi Hassan (also known as Khan Sahib).

Ustad Mehdi Hassan is a Pakistani ghazal singer and a former playback singer for Lollywood. He is known as the 'King of Ghazal' (Shehenshaah-e-ghazal : شہنشاہِ غزل). He has ruled the Pakistan film industry for so long. He was hounoured with countless awards all across the globe, some of them are:

Nigar Film Awards
Tamgha-e-Imtiaz, Pride of Performance & Hilal-e-Imtiaz by the Government of Pakistan
The Saigal Award in Jalandhar, India, in 1979
Gorkha Dakshina Bahu by Government of Nepal.

His much more successes came after the hardships he faced in order to get at this place. The accolades he received and the love & respect he gathered from all over the world cannot be squeezed into one post. I'll now quickly come to the main reason which inspired this post, i.e Ustad Mehdi Hassan Khan Sahib's legendary music. From those eight ghazals which i placed into my playlist, i'm sharing these 4 ghazals. These are my favourites among the ghazals sung by him.

Listen & Enjoy.

I've made my mom smile, i can peacefully die now - Have you made your mom smile lately ?

Have you recently told your mom how much you love her & what she means to you ?

If its been couple of months or years since you've told your mom that you love her beyond anything else in the world, then you must go tell her right now.

I really mean right now, go tell her or text her or call her or write on her facebook wall or email her or convey it somehow but do it rightaway.

You might think its useless to tell her & she might just say i love you too son/daughter, but deep down inside she will definitely be wanting to hear it for so long.

I'm not saying that these words can fulfill your responsibilities towards her.
These words can, in no way, pay off what she did for you. However this is the only thing that can give her happiness beyond imagination.

I make her smile every now & then, i keep telling her what she means to me. When she reads or hears it, her face starts glowing, as if God has nourished & renewed her soul.
Nothing else can bring the smile on her face, which my 3 words can bring.

Love mothers & tell them that you love them more than anything else. They are the best gift of God on earth.
