Anyways i should probably go there tomorrow night as well to find out how they are taking the todays's rain LOL

Match is abandoned. England win by 40 runs by D/L/S Australia are out of

So they say that today England has pulled the Bangladesh ( Former Something East ) out to the Semi Finals means more rain is predicted for the semis 

Thank God For the Twitter that i am now able to Understand the True meaning of the Word "Sarcasm" and Cricket lingo . The Karachi trend on twitter has nothing about or from karachi its an All england affair tonight .

How could i , it was over by the time i realised i have missed something . Okay never mind i will watch the show again after the Eid .
So I have heard that Eid is coming very fast and there is also a chand raat this year for the poor Power and electric less Chinese Biryani in your dreams people of Pakistan . Congratulations !

Okay i need to take a break Now and recharge . 

2:08 am Break ( 606 words )


2:46 am Had Juice and Biscuits and water during the break . Could Not lie down or i will not be able to wake up for sehri . Even though I really don't think that i should eat anything now still it is better to stay up and have a final glass of water before the azan or siren for the start of roza . Because it is a very long roza fast and even if i don't do any hard labour or outdoor work still the mouth can be dry in so many hours so it is better to have a sip with the closing time and then do the Niaat نیت intention prayer .

About one hour is left the sehri end time or the Astro Twilight is 4:13 am Here in Karachi . The Moon which is 98.2% waning Gibbous right now must be visible outside as Moon set time is 7 : 05 am today .

So the Highlight of this was My Happy Birthday and the Dear Paternal Grand Father's 60th ( according to islamic calender ) death Anniversary falling on the same day by two very different calenders . Mine was June 7th and his was 11th Ramzan . So Thanks to my two very dear sisters we celebrated my Happy Birthday at midnight by cutting the cake Image may contain: dessert and foodand having the refreshments Image may contain: food
And offered the fateha at Iftar time Image may contain: food
The Interesting thing about the day was that all day from mid night to midnight and beyond the K- Electric Power remained on . Had Multiple shutdowns the evening before and the next day . The Highest of the High was Pakistan winning against South africa and the Rain at edgbaston Birmingham UK . raising hopes of Pakistan going into the semi finals and winning if and only if the rain remains on their side till the very end . Some people don't believe that rain in cricketing england is not a divine thing they say that it is science . Assuming it to be some what true then there must be a reign that decides who to win due to rain and who do not . Now the Question is if it is true then why in the world do some reign wants to have Pakistan and Bangladesh in Semi finals . Unless they wants the Scotland yard to do geo fencing of all the Pakistan and Bangladesh fans in the stadium . It is still odd because most of the Pakistan Bangladesh and Indian fans must have already had been geo fenced during the Uk General Elections 2017 held on 8th of june ...anyways never mind its sehri time and i have to go Allah Hafiz !

God Bless Walls Pakistan and the Unilever Pakistan for being there for me for a very long time . Before Walls arrived in Karachi we use to have Polka icream 



 1
The Polka-Unilever Merger:
A suitable example of a merger that took place in Pakistan would be that be of the Unilever-Polkamerger. Unilever acquired the shares of AmbrosiaInternational Ltd., Mehran International Ltd., andPakistan Industrial Promoters Ltd., which form what is often called the Polkagroup of ice-creamcompanies.Polka is the name of ice-cream that emerged prior to the 90s and was officially the first ice-creammanufacturers in Pakistan. The logo, comprised of three children indulgently licking ice-cream, was acommon image in every Pakistani household in the pre-90s epoch. The Polka group had three factoriesin Hub, Karachi and Lahore, respectively. It employed more than 700 people and had a combinedturnover of some Rs. 725 million in 1994, according to the data supplied by the firm itself. Of the threecompanies of Polka groups, Pakistan Industrial Promoters (Pvt) Limited (PIPLPIPL Port Isabel PublicLibrary (Port Isabel, TX) was incorporated in 1970, the second factory was manufactured in Lahore,named Mehran International Limited (Pvt) (MIL) which was incorporated in 1975 and ultimately, abranch was inaugurated in Karachi under the name of Ambrosia International Limited (Pvt) (ALL) whichwas incorporated in 1984 and has a factory in Hub. Ambrosia is a public limited company while the othertwo are private limited companies. Products of the triad were marketed under the Polka brand name.AIL also produced Movenpick under license.On the other end, Unilever's existing interest in Pakistan includes Lever Brothers (Pakistan) Limitedwhich manufactures and sells a broad range of consumer-products. Unilever is also the largest ice-creammanufacturer in the world with sales of over [pounds] 3 billion from over 50 countries.In 1994, Lever Brothers Pakistan appeared on the scene and tried to acquire Polka Ice Cream for a heftyamount of Rs 600 million. Polka refused the bid and instead demanded Rs. 1 billion to close the deal. Butone year after the launch of Wall's Ice Cream by Lever Brothers in 1995, Polka approached Wall's withan offer to merge the two companies. Walls accepted and subsequently, Polka was merged into Walls.At the time of the merger, the total production of Polka ice-cream in Pakistan was 13 million tons whilethat of Walls ice-cream was four million tons. Unilever's international expertise in ice-creams and Polka'slong experience of the Pakistan ice-cream market are expected to bring significant benefits to thePakistani consumer. Unilever will continue to develop and support both its Walls brand and the Polkabrand and will invest further in the Polka business to improve the manufacturing operation

So it was a brilliant idea to bring in Walls and force polka to sell their brand name in the name of merger and eventually lose every mark on every lamppost . 


Anyways , i have to pray fajr  then to sleep the rest of the morning till Zuhr . So i will be surprised if i wake up and get back here to do this my the Sunday Blog # 62 . very very surprised . Ha Ha Image may contain: 3 people, indoor

11:02 am yes i am up early so unbeliable isn't it and whats even more unbeliable is that the stomach seems empty anyways here is the first tweet of the day

So on an other wise a very peaceful sunday morning or noon the Dr Qadri returns to lahore and rejects JIT Bang!


Yes the news is that he is back in lahore and claims JIT is an election cell of PMLN .

and in london news another left wing of MQM is celebrating an 11th hour day against what they call the PIB mafia . Well even the jamadaars are not scared of the PIB mafia so they must have called for help . PSP is in drying after the washing on faisal road .  So there is no solid trp manager in this circus Mariam baji is away probably having a plastic surgery in china for her appearance in the JIT . Now that could be a game changer but you never know so no money on that too ...Image may contain: 2 people, people smiling, people standing and indoor
Khan saab cancer wala is probably busy collecting more and more Zakat for British intell . Imagine him saying " Paisa sub kuch nahein hota "  Yes !
Anyways the night shopping and cricket this ramzan is not happening so far . because of jams and hot and humid weather and power outages . The Already scared people with kids are heading to the new and old Malls instead of street shopping . Snap checkings and extortions are also discouraging the people to come out late at night and shop . And then there is the ever increasing prices of soft drinks . Water is not free anymore in any main market of Karachi . Walking for an hour or more makes everyone thirsty and if you had been fasting in the day and have lost a lot of body water due to perspiration then its a must and if you are shopping with family and young kids then its really very bad for you out there . Saw a young lady with two kids one very newish born outside the restaurant sitting on the steps having no strength at all to walk or room inside  while her dear male companion was trying to find the most chilled juice bottle . Scenes like these were very common last night . This poor nation needs to understand that Eid Shopping is not for them . 

12:12 pm Break ( 2051 words)

1:42 pm okay so now i have prayer the Zuhr Prayer at home . I finish prayer in about time i would otherwise take to reach the nearest mosque and plus there is less chance of catching the flu virus or the weapons of mass destruction mega produced in ramzan . This ramzan due to the Air conditioning of the mosque i see some difference in the germs spreading . The Sounds are very different . less low noise sneeze or coughing . And that contineous fluid waste management sound that usually disturbs the person standing right or left in the rank is so totally missing . The very weak sounds that usually resembles the sound of crying for long is being produced but i seriously doubt that it is genuine could be fake or some extra water in the nostrils . It usually don't last for more than four rakats of taravee prayer . Qari saab is showing all signs of weakness and have taken a chair (rickshaw) which definitely saves him from the elbows of the Pathan standing next to him . I was trying to get to the second rank in the far left rickshaw corner but a very young toddler with very cold feets peed  me back . Now i don't have a regular place i am going with the flow . Yesterday i felt like i was in a chat room while trying to concentrate on the Surah Noor and lashing or the Adulterers . I am sure these kids were only trying to push me back into the hall with the more infected crowd . So after two continous weeks of not getting infected with the spray or proximity of carriers I believe that now i can even try the Korean water dispensers with Bottled water . Some kids it seems have donated more for those dispensers or they only come to the mosque to enjoy the korean dispenser chilled water not available anywhere else because intentionally or unintentionally we maybe blowing wind from our lungs on them ...Okay you know the rest of the story so i was wondering how does this thing called a water dispenser works . I mean we place a sealed water bottle upside down on top then what does the water goes into the tank or does the water remains in the bottle and gets chilled . For a minute forget the glass that is being used by weapons of mass destruction carriers multiple times and left there for me to try my luck , how about the tap and all the way from the bottle . How is it made sure that it is clean and safe .












Aha ...there is a reservoir . No wonder .

Anyways don't you think that 100 lashes is nothing as compared to the punitive property loss in damages for cheating in the US judicial system . And i am yet to learn the Chinese . I am sure the laws must be tougher there as well on this Adultry or cheating .

3 Chinese warships arrive Karachi -

Got to Go ! 

2:41 pm Break (2550 words)

6:29 pm So here i am after a very good afternoon sleep till 5:00 pm then turkish soap Kaala Paisa Pyar then asr prayer . All done clean and cool now and ready to rant about anything that comes to mind for the next half hour or more as the iftar break will be after 7:00 pm then i will go and set my iftar plate . I asked everybody if somebody need anything from the market but i get a negative reply . So here i am cancelling the trip to go and bring some icecream or Kulfi . I don't know what has got into me ever since my birthday went well as planned i have started taking more risks eating takeaway food . almost frozen drinks and ice cream . and even though i may have survived the 15th roza as well there are still fourteen more to go and a day less for the taravee prayers that is thirteen taravee prayers and twelve para or parts of Quran to be heard from a aspiring great qari who at the moment  is making qeema nan of the

لَوْ أَرَدْنَا أَن نَّتَّخِذَ لَهْوًا لَّاتَّخَذْنَاهُ مِن لَّدُنَّا إِن كُنَّا فَاعِلِينَ - 21:17


Had We intended to take a diversion, We could have taken it from [what is] with Us - if [indeed] We were to do so.


God Have Mercy on me . here the quote we use more than often for situations like these is
 Inna Allah ma as-sabireen (2:153)
إِنَّ اللّهَ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ ٢:١٥٣

 Indeed, Allah is with the patient.


Sounds more like that the patient will be with Allah soon Keep Calm . Anyways my prayers and best wishes are always for people who try to excel in any field . And being a hafiz and qari is indeed a great honour and source of Allah 's blessings and mercy for him and his family who shall be rewarded by Allah on the day of judgement Insha Allah Amen ! 

So i am happy that these days it is so easy to check and find any verse of the holy Quran its translation and transliteration in arabic , english , roman english and urdu . the internet has not only made everything accessible it has also made learning and understanding more and more easy and there are so many people to thank for it . Dear God All Mighty Allah Bless each and every one of those people who made this possible Amen !


The Dear Merciful Lord All Mighty Allah please forgive and bless my dearly departed Parents and may their souls rest in peace in Heaven Amen !

16th of Ramzan 1438
33°C
7:59 pm Good Evening !

 yes alhamdolillah we had iftar of the Fifteenth Roza of the Ramzan 1438 during this my the Sunday Blog # 62  with this Image may contain: foodImage may contain: food and indoorNo automatic alt text available.

Now i am having tea with biscuits while doing this my the Sunday Blog # 62 .


So After a very exciting game yesterday between two big teams today a very low key match of the underdogs boring as usual nothing to show on the field i suppose okay never mind and lets move on to something more interesting that is happening in the world these days .

Okay lets move on ....So the time is coming to the end for today for this my the Sunday Blog # 62 which is the third sunday blog in this month of Ramzan . So there are two more Sunday blogs to come in this month of Ramzan before the Eid on the 26th of June . Soon after the eid on the First of July is My dearly Departed Ammi's ( May her soul rest in peace in Heaven Amen !) third death anniversary which was on the 2nd of Ramzan according to that calender . I don't think that we could have mutton pulao twice a week in this hot and humid weather so i believe we will have choley and kachori's on eid with chicken something in supper . I will definitely stop going to the mosque during the eid holidays and try to survive the weapons of mass destruction that comes with the take away junk food . Just like i feel right now that there are are atleast two kinds of Virus trying to survive inside my body . I will know for sure by tomorrow morning how it all wents .

So i believe this is it for today or at least for now i may add a line or two after i return from the taravee prayer of the 16th night's prayer of the 19th para or Part of the Quran . Para 19 وقال الذین

has three surah 25, 26, 27 and Two prostration sajda .

Please wish me luck . Thankyou ! God Bless Allah Hafiz !

Confused ? Image may contain: 2 people, people smiling

And the other thing is Why do people Like posts on facebook ? Does everybody know that if y
ou like a friends post for friends only it will become a friends of friend post visible to all friends of the person likeing the post of the friend he or she does not even want his or her friends to know are friends by hiding the friends list . That is the question ? g
