Osama Shah | 13 years ago

Sir Allama Muhammad Iqbal said:

Iqbal Teri Qaum Ka Iqbal Kho Gaya
Maazi Tou Sunehra Hy magar Haal Kho Gaya
Wo Raub-o-Dabdaba Wo Jalal Kho Gaya
Wo Husn-e-Be.Misaal Wo Jamal Kho Gaya
Doobey Hyn Jawabo`n Mein Per Sawal Kho Gaya

What do you think what is the real sawal?

You can vote him up or you can "recommend" on Facebook, which is the same as "like". :)

Yeah, i voted it up and recommended it on facebook as well, but couldn't see it on my home page/ profile page :S

Munahil Murrieum | 13 years ago

I've seen that happen myself :S Btw, in order to "Share" it on FB rather than just "like" it, when you click on Recommend, click again on "Post on Facebook" in the small box that opens

Usama Hafeez | 13 years ago

As far as I remember, no small box appeared.

Duh!! emotional ker dia yaar. Sometimes I wish I was born in some other time just due to the desire to have myself spared of all of this situation.

Looking for Sawal exactly denotes the need to look for the root-causes of our fall. The answer to which is known to us all that we are in such a huge national crisis.

I dunno if i should say this but, I feel like I am losing control over myself when i look around and see what reasons was Pakistan made for and where instead are we headed.

Bravo! Osama Shah! what a contribution! so artistic and meaningful, specially with reference to the website's name and central idea.

According to my tiny understanding of this ashaa'r of Iqbal, We dun know the "real suwal" at all, we as muslims, have got so much into this world, we are like "in the middle of nowhere" we dn know why have Allah sent us in this world, We as muslims have forgotten the real meaning of our religion, we real meaning of "khudi" This is the reason why we are in huge crisis today.

Hmm, okay Osama, I need your help. I only understand the abovementioned text half way through :(

But after reading what popped into my head was the following:

"Iqbal yay tumhain kya ho gaya?
Sochtay sochtay haal karab ho gaya.
Kya har jawab aik sawal nahe or her sawal aik jawab nahe?
Dhoondo na cha ho gay bhe, to shuru karo gay bhe to kahan say?"

Sumi,
What he means is that in whatever situation we are in right now, this is so written for the era we are living in, we confuse ourselves, we deny who we are, we give arguments which does not concern us.

We daily watch news, waste hours on discussions about the country, politics, corruption and other problems. But we never try to think that why are we in this and what is MY responsibility. Am I doing enough or what I am supposed to do, are we as a nation and as Muslims following our job description.

Thinking about the real 'sawal' is such an important concept to get us back on track but we never do this. We love to discuss people and events but when it comes to the ideas and the real 'doing' stuff we never go there.
The real sawal is not, at least, zardari, gen kiyani, america, army, isi, pml, ppp, pti...

So nicely explained. Thanks Osama. Surely, a food for thought.

Hmm, personally for myself the most essential question is: What's my purpose on earth? What are my duties towards Allah, myself, Muslims and the mankind in general?

It takes a lot more than just courage to stand up for your rights and make your voice heard, understood and reacted upon by others. Perhaps, there are many who have already asked the 'right question', but hesitate taking actions since the other question one needs to ask is: What is at stake and what is one willing to sacrifice?

Many of us enjoy the so-called 'blame-giving-game', where everyone else seems to be at fault other than the person himself/herself.

I guess, we all need to ask ourselves: Why and how Pakistan was 'created' and what do you want Pakistan to look like in future?

Sumi | 13 years ago

I like your 'sawal'
I would just add "Why and how Pakistan was 'created' and what do you want Pakistan to look like in future + and what are we ready to sacrifice?"

That's totally your decision brother, no one can tell you your ideology and what you wish for Pakistan. I am not joining any party but when the elections come I'll vote for PTI...hopefully.
