Today is Sunday
The 1st of November 2020
The 14th of RabiulAwwal 1442 H till the Sunset ( 5:57 pm ; Karachi ☠️)
And this is my the Sunday Blog # 239 ( Two Hundred and thirty nine )
Happy Halloween 😈
Honestly speaking it is very much against
My religion ,
My belief ,
My heritage ,
...to believe in the Halloween 😈
But being such a movie buff and soap serial addict , it is so hard to ignore or pretend that a night never comes when you loose control .
Obviously , i only know and remember the Halloween 😈
about dark evil spirits , the Pumpkin lantern and Trick or treat which is part of the horror movies or family Hallmark tv shows . Funny thing is that , now I really don't remember any special Halloween 😈 Character or movie from the Disney .
So before i seriously jog my memory and permanently harm it lets see What the wiki kids has to say about it ...
Halloween
Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of "All Hallows' evening"),[5] also known as Allhalloween,[6] All Hallows' Eve,[7] or All Saints' Eve,[8] is a celebration observed in many countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It begins the observance of Allhallowtide,[9] the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed.[10][11]
One theory holds that many Halloween traditions may have been influenced by ancient Celtic harvest festivals, particularly the Gaelic festival Samhain, which may have had pagan roots;[12][13][14][15] some scholars hold that Samhain may have been Christianized as All Hallow's Day, along with its eve, by the early Church.[16] Other academics believe, however, that Halloween began solely as a Christian holiday, being the vigil of All Hallow's Day.[17][18][19][20]
Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (or the related guising and souling), attending Halloween costume parties, carving pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns, lighting bonfires, apple bobbing, divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories, as well as watching horror films.[21] In many parts of the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles on the graves of the dead, remain popular,[22][23][24] although elsewhere it is a more commercial and secular celebration.[25][26][27] Some Christians historically abstained from meat on All Hallows' Eve, a tradition reflected in the eating of certain vegetarian foods on this vigil day, including apples, potato pancakes, and soul cakes.[28][29][30][31]
So basically it is the Christian version of Shab e Barat .
The funny thing is that spirits may or may not be Evil but if you can see them then you cannot remain very normal . So if you ask me one should never try to see the unseen or hear the unheard . Without the permission of the Lord All Knowing All Mighty ALLAH Amen !
In the past thirteen years , I prayed , offered fateha 🌹
Visited the grave , touched his things , watched his pictures , talked to people who knew him , like him , loved him , even the ones who hated him . BUT , not even once , did i wish to see my dearly departed Papa (
May his soul rest in peace in jannah Amen 🙏 )
Whenever I pray for him ever since he passed away ...I pray that his stature increases ....that he gets a place in the highest level of jannah possible ....Amen 🙏
I cannot stand that even for a nano second he has to decend from the heavens just to remind or guide me here down below .
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
So I try my best to keep a very low profile , cool and composed state of mind . Both on Shab e Barat or All Hallows ( Halloween 😈) Never let myself distracted from the worldly affairs of feasting especially Halwa and sweets .
Sean Connery Dead .....
Isn't it ironic ...most Hollywood and Bafta followers remembers the famous British actor Sean Connery as the real Bond 007 James Bond ... But fortunately I was born in the era when Roger Moore had taken over and every time somebody mentioned James Bond 007 , the first picture that come to mind was that of Roger Moore .
He was and shall always remain the very best , perfect and my favorite Bond 007 James Bond .
Anyways , here we are not discussing the life and death of Roger Moore so put a sock in it please and get back on track .
Sir Thomas Sean Connery (25 August 1930 – 31 October 2020) was a Scottish actor and producer. He is best known as the first actor to portray the character James Bond in film, starring in seven Bond films (every film from Dr. No to You Only Live Twice, plus Diamonds Are Forever and Never Say Never Again) between 1962 and 1983.[1][2][3]
Connery was in smaller theatre and television productions until he got his break with the Bond films. He became a major actor with the success of his Bond role. His films also included Marnie (1964), Murder on the Orient Express (1974), The Man Who Would Be King (1975), A Bridge Too Far (1977), Highlander (1986), The Name of the Rose (1986), The Untouchables (1988), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), The Hunt for Red October (1990), Dragonheart (1996), The Rock (1996), and Finding Forrester (2000). Connery retired from acting in 2006.
His achievements include one Academy Award, two BAFTA Awards (one being a BAFTA Academy Fellowship Award), and three Golden Globes, including the Cecil B. DeMille Award and a Henrietta Award. He received a lifetime achievement award in the US with a Kennedy Center Honor in 1999. Connery was knighted in the 2000 New Year Honours for services to film drama.[4]
Connery was polled in a 2004 The Sunday Herald as "The Greatest Living Scot"[5] and in a 2011 EuroMillions survey as "Scotland's Greatest Living National Treasure".[6] He was voted by People magazine as both the "Sexiest Man Alive" in 1989 and the "Sexiest Man of the Century" in 1999.[7]
Okay so perhaps my favorite movie with him in it as an important character was The Rock ....
Eid Milaad un Nabi ( SAW)
Despite being in an absolute jam we tried our best to keep the tradition of celebrating the Eid Milaad un Nabi ( SAW)
Our cooking mafia woke up very early cooked the mutton Pulao and the sweet dishes ...and then we had the fateha 🌹
By noon we were all done. It was the Friday Juma Mubarak . My subconscious was betting that I would not miss this Juma Mubarak prayer at the mosque for the world . But soon it was all over . And the whole world knew where it stand .

In most of the Turkish udru dubbed soap serials izmir is mentioned more than The Ankara ...not sure why
Turkey has been acting kind of weird lately . It has started war on so many fronts both physical and ideological .
Turkey's stand on Kashmir is kind of ... Scarry 😱

Every time you feel that you have seen the lowest of the lows by our very dear MMM ( Mulla' military media ) and then comes the biggest surprise .
By the way , the price of egg is still a few rupees short of rupees Two Hundred . Let's celebrate 🌝
10:18 am Break !
11:02 am still undecided whether to eat or sleep 😴
Or eat and sleep 😴
The electric company has made up it's Mind already to continue this intrupting electric supply . Must be some Chinese or Turkey engineer converting the Alternating Current to intrupting electric supply.
🎃
12:48 am So first I sleep for about an hour and then I eat the leftover mutton Pulao ... don't know why but they say that it tastes better the next morning ...
Okay anyways the brunch was not ready yet ...and the kids are coming and going to the jobs ...bread and butter on the table and the ironing returns to my God forsaken Home after centuries ....so it does not look or feel like The Sunday anymore . I don't know if it is politically Correct to Continue This my the Sunday Blog# 239 ( Two Hundred and thirty nine) in this unWaste land 247365- ...open . The para medic is also visiting multiple times , made his first appearance few hours ago during the electric troubles . Nephew returned after sleeping two towns away ...Doctor Saab and his family was also expected . Don't know the prime objective of his mission now but two weeks ago his itenenrary had a birthday bash for today the first of November 2020. Nobody planned a midnight surprise 🎉🎊🎈🎃 tonight ...everybody is trying to recover from the shock and trauma ...unsure and confused . Especially because it all started with a Cake and celebration 🎉
We are all humble and thankful to the dear merciful Lord All Mighty ALLAH Amen 🙏 for giving our dearest and youngest sibling a new lease of life . Amen 🙏
The surgeon and physicians at the hospital were very shaky about the chances of success of the operation so much that they even had an indemnity Bond translated in Urdu . By doing so they almost pulled the rug from our feets . The good thing is that the patient is very eager to recover and get well sooner than anybody else expects her to . But the healing process after a major operation takes time .
So I guess the Sunday Brunch is ready
And the Azans for Zuhr have also finished all over town of all the sects
So here I take a break for the brunch and prayers 🛐 with a prayer 🤲 for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
1:43 pm Break !
2:57 pm Surprise Surprise !
I missed the cutting of the cake because I had to pray the missed fajr prayer with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
So Doctor Saab and his family arrived as promised and they came prepared for the Birthday . I ordered the food from foodpanda 🐼 which arrived promptly ...
And my dear elder sister had her sixth Happy Birthday 🎈
And now she is doing the dishes . While I am here over feed and unsure what to blog about next . And when to update it .
Security sCam :
A prayer leader has been assassinated in my home town mosque not very close to my home . Somebody has posted the video of the culprit being chased and caught by the staff and students of the seminary with the mosque . The suspected assassin was caught because he was overdressed . In the video we can see that he is running out of the frame in a shalwar suit But while being dragged back to the frame his shalwar fell off and underneath he was wearing a pant ...most probably a escape plan disguise that he did not get to execute .
In another Incident outside the holy mosque gate 89 of the harmain sharifain somebody drove the car or maybe lost control and slammed at the gate . The security personnel appears to be chasing after him . Fortunately there is no explosion in this video as well not even a gun shot like the previous one .
So the moral of the story ...
Karachi☠️ the most dangerous city in the world .
I will share the link to both videos here but I can guarantee it will work after some time .
Okay Charging below 50 %
And Azan started so here I take a prayer break with a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
4:28 pm Break !
Sun 15th RabiulAwwal 1442H
31°C
6:17 pm Good Evening !
Okay during the break the para medic came and then I made the tea and chatted with the birthday kid ...thanks to the Facebook memories she reminded me of what I gave her for the Happy birthday last year . So now I feel like I owe her 😭
In this season when the fans are off and the traffic after sunset is very little . Staying locked inside the room when people are talking outside is very difficult . And if you are trying to listen to who and what and suddenly somebody bangs the door shut with full force ...🤯
So anyways ...
Tea and channa Chaat ...
Banana shake skipped .
The patient looks better but her attendents appears to be exhausted and sleep deprived . Not to mention the ones who are in office till midnight .
May the Dear Merciful Lord All Mighty ALLAH Amen 🙏
Brings Happiness and Prosperity in their lives . And save them from illness of mind , body and Souls. Amen 🙏
Okay time for the Isha prayer
With a prayer for my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi
May the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah have mercy on my dearly departed parents Papa and Ammi and may they be blessed by the dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah and Their Souls may rest in peace in heaven. Amen!
Puisse le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah avoir pitié de mes chers parents papa et Ammi et qu'ils soient bénis par le cher Seigneur miséricordieux Tout-Puissant Allah et leurs âmes puissent reposer en paix au paradis. Amen!
7:43 pm Break !
8:54 pm okay according to the unconfirmed reports the assassination plot on the life of Mulla' failed . And even though he belongs to the binori school of thoughts but he will do the matab from Asr to maghrib on Tuesdays and Wednesdays .
After all anybody can read the prayers but not everybody survive the assassination plot in Karachi ☠️ the most dangerous city in the world.
Uklockdown2 :
Yes it is true . There is no other option thinkable to save a whole lot of Turkey 🦃
And boost the BlackFriday spree ...
God Save Her Majesty's Government !
Ayhey hey hey hey ay hey 🤯🎃☠️
Last hour !
Movies of the Week !
I had lots of time free time ...home alone time ...but I choose not to watch any movies because I was trying to be at my very best at all times . Sleep on time get up on time . Remain alert all the time be able to respond at anytime . And sit on those hard Rock hospital chairs on a cold cold night .
No I did not go to the hospital for numerous reasons . Which includes Corona , Bacteria , Memon , land mafia . But the biggest issue was that I did not have a shoe ...I haven't bought one for years ever since somebody told me to act my age not my shoe size ....
So in order to go to the hospital I would have had to go to the shoe store and buy one first . And I was totally unsure what message it would send and how it will be received .
Anyways ...
Have I eaten dinner tonight ?
No I don't think so ...still I feel stuffed . So I should have that fizzy drink we got in the zinger deal from the nearest fast food restaurant on the foodpanda 🐼
For the first time ever we tried the pick-up since it was introduced on the foodpanda 🐼 app . And we did not have the faintest idea that they do not accept cash on pick-up orders . Surprise Surprise 😉
Yes the payment method for pickup from a nearest restaurants is by Card only ...debt or credit ?
Both options available ...no cash or QR code accepted here not even 💔 easypaisa
So anyways we had pick-up as takeaway and not through the foodpanda 🐼 app .
Last ten minutes .
Time for a break . Ending after midnight .
😊
Okay then it's good bye ...
Enjoy this song video I chose for this blog ...
All the best ...
God bless America 🙏
Allah Hafiz ! />
How does a moment last forever?
How can a story never die?
It is love we must hold onto
Never easy, but we try
Sometimes our happiness is captured
Somehow, our time and place stand still
Love lives on inside our hearts and always will
Minutes turn to hours, days to years then gone
But when all else has been forgotten
Still our song lives on
Maybe some moments weren't so perfect
Maybe some memories not so sweet
But we have to know some bad times
Or are lives are incomplete
Then when the shadows overtake us
Just when we feel all hope is gone
We'll hear our song and know once more
Our love lives on
How does a moment last forever?
How does our happiness endure?
Through the darkest of our troubles
Love is beauty, love is pure
Love pays no mind to desolation
It flows like a river through the soul
Protects, perceives, and perseveres
And makes us whole
Minutes turn to hours, days to years then gone
But when all else has been forgotten
Still our song lives on
How does a moment last forever
When our song lives on
