Today is Sunday the 26th of August 2018 , the 14th of Zilhij 1439 till the Sunset ( 6:57 pm , Karachi ) and this is my the Sunday Blog # 125 ( Hundred and twenty five ) .
So yes we survived the Bakra Eid here in karachi the most dangerous city in the world . It is hard to tell who won . because as planned i had my relaxed and fun first day . Got up early after missing the fajr prayer . got dressed in new clothes went to the mosque offered the special Eid Prayer went to the grave yard paid respects to grand parents and 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!
with rose petals and offered fateha prayer without food . On my way back i went in the Sweet Shop and bought special breakfast of fried kachoris and gulab jaman and 7 up and slice juice . Obviously as i was coming from the local sweet meat shop with especially shop name and address printed shopping bags so i had to go through especial security scanners and body frisk okay sorry no frisk just a voluntary half a hug by the neighbours body guard before entering the gate . He is already looking for better prospects have no hope from the company or the client . Some neighbours tied their cows and bulls on his head so he is back taking refuge on our kerb /pavement . His masters left without a sound or covering the cars in a hurry so he probably did not get the eid bonus or sweets and free lunches , okay maybe other neighbours must have given him free lunches and eidi . The cars are not being washed everyday and parked as if deserted ...melo drama . It was too late for Hajj and too early for karbala so they may have gone to Goa . Don't seem like the khandala type in monsoon ...anyways you never know maybe went for the darshan and asheerbad of the first lady .
Anyways enough of about them or the guards . So where was i oh yes I came in and had breakfast and facebook meetup with the siblings and then i spent some time on the net shared pictures and images with the social media . Had some sleep woke up had tea . And learned that a neighbour and old family friend had send some meat while i was sleeping which is already being processed into a yakhni pulao . So we probably had lunch before asr time .
after lunch what did i do ? probably had chat with my siblings and then i went for the maghrib prayer . Interesting as i was about to leave drizzle started with the Azan . so as i was wearing my new dress with white shalwar i said no i can't go out like that so as i was about to get back inside the drizzle suddenly stopped ...desperate bhaagwan ?
Anyways , so i went to the nearest mosque very slowly trying not to slip on the SSGC + PTCL + Builder Mafia diggings and avoiding the cow and cattle dung and crap .
After the prayer i did a little shopping for my sister from the shops just to prove that our local shops open on eid day . Nothing special , but my sister was really pleased with them . Bhaagwaan was furious so the lights went out . and as we were waiting for the lights to returned so we may watch our regular mon to fri hindi soaps , harpic , always and veet serials on Urdu 1 tv channel , my other sister came with sweets . Lights came but i was on data net so i completely forgot the hindi soaps , harpic , Always and veet serials on urdu 1 tv channel . I was wednesday evening so i knew that i will catchup today's episodes next afternoon and evening and so i did . So the meat and cooked stuff kept coming all day and by the end of the day despite we not contributing to the US , Indian and Iranian economy and supporting their respective agricultural departments our fridge was almost full ( wabaal )
My dear Brother was still insisting that when he goes to collect the cow shares the next day i may accompany with him so that he can buy cheap animals and prove that there is still God in this god forsaken city . I refused fearing a backlash from the naughty Bhaagwan who can pull the plug of the entire south anytime and not even apologise for the bara breakdown .
So anyways , I don't remember how and when i sleep that night or the morning after uploading the pictures and images . But this i remember well that i was not up for fajr prayer missed it again .
Okay no tap water today so i have to take a break here and go hunt for water . Be right back very soon Insha Allah !
2:12 am Break (834 words)
2:52 am Wow ! so it seems that the Great American Happy Cow festival is finally over as i got to wadu for a delayed 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!
with tap water ...Jazak Allah !
Well i always thought that this toilet was too small for all my thoughts during the mean time but now this exercise of doing Bath before prayer with bottled water of 1.5 L and after wadu sometimes with just a 500 ml bottle of water for regular prayer especially on a sunday during this my the sunday Blogs now i can sleep with madonna twice a day and still go to heaven ....or higher where there is no Bhaagwan or POPE .
LOL.

Twitter trends for Karachi the most dangerous city in the world reminds of the decade of Faraz without .
Chalo ji ay te gal he muk gaie se ....hon te faraz de poetry post kar se and by mid day cross the five thousand words mark for this my the Sunday Blog # 125 ( Hundred and twenty five )10 years ago, on this day, we lost #AhmedFaraz.— Dawn.com (@dawn_com) August 25, 2018
Faraz was one of Pakistani writers and poets who resisted military dictators in Pakistan.https://t.co/pAm0ZPHVZp pic.twitter.com/WeDyjpr7Ex
Dost Ban Kar Bhi Nahi Saath Nibhane Wala
Wahi Andaz Hai Zalim Ka Zamane Wala
Ab Use Log Samajhte Hein Griftar Mera
Sakht Nadim Hai Mujhe Daam Mein Lane Wala
Kya Kahein Kitne Marasim They Humare Us Se
Woh Jo Ek Shakhs Ahi Moun Pher Ke Jane Wala
Tere Hote Howe Aa Jati Thi Sari Duniya
Aj Tanha Hon Tou Koi Nahi Aane Wala
Muntazir Kis Ka Hon Toti Hoi Dehlez Pe Mein
Koun Aaye Ga Yahan Koun Hai Aane Wala
Tum Takalluf Ko Bhi Ikhlas Samajhte Ho Faraz
Dost Hota Nahi Har Hath Milane Wala
okay so now i am so relaxed and relieved that i can take another break and probably dose off till noon .#JashnIFaraz— Adil Najam عادل نجم (@AdilNajam) August 25, 2018

11:27 am okay i am finally up to learn that US Senator and Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee has not survived Okay !
Okay i have only had a cup of tea and no breakfast still trying to figure out what happened and where am i .
I think i should slow or turn off this table fan in front feeling a bit chilly here and can't here a thing from outside no its not that there are any sounds coming it seems everybody is still sleeping or left the neighbourhood . those who went away for eid have not returned yet . the Armed Guard probably had diya and cleaned the cars with a dirty wet cloth did not wash or maybe he did but they were too dirty after a whole week of standing still under our tree with a crows nest and falling dried leaves and mud and dirty from the diggings . Saein walas are expected to return any times soon their recce party as arrived . lets see who occupies our front first and who takes it for more time . Half of the road is dug so there is dirt and mud and the other half that is our side is covered with sacrifice of animals blood and dirty and water and chalk powder mix . So the road is almost gone and it feels like back alley and not the front road at all . And i believe now the water or sewarage line digging or Electric company must be planning to dig .....remember that song .....tere ghar kay samney road gali banana hai ....or something like that .....

Okay time for a 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!
3:16 pm Wow almost two hours went so fast .....and all i did was just rushed out to the market oven tandoor and bought naan bread and taftan came back and eat . Islamabad is still asleep i mean its so deserted just like the islamabad or bahria town . Anyways please close your eyes as i am about to post the Sunday lunch and facebook meet up pictures from ...HAJI FAILSAL SHINGARI KOYLA KARHAI RESTAURANT SUPERHIGHWAY ...
here is the todays lunch images may contain food
تخت اُلٹایا ہے وقت کے فرغونوں کا۔۔۔ الہی میری فقیری سدا بہار رکھنا۔۔۔۔
3:38 pm Break (2558 words)
6:05 pm Had a very sound sleep woke up with the Azan of Asr . Washed and Cleaned and prayed 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!
Now only half an hour left because if i go for the maghrib prayer at mosque then i will have to take a break at 6:30 pm . Since these days i am eating lots of meat and Fat . so i think that it is better if i go for a walk at least once . its very risky some times especially when you have no idea what's been going on in the town and country . and especially in the dadial , nanial and fariyal . No body directly says anything for the sake of annoynimity ( i love this word ) but try to incenerate and give smoke signals ...i am sure you were not thinking i'd say insinuate ...of course don't be ridiculous ...ha ha
LOL
So i am still burping not yet farting and had tea instead of soda . that means that i can go . okay so lets think if i need to do any shopping . there is not time to ask the siblings because they would only remember when i am gone or back . Nobody is doing regular breakfast these days so there is no need for the breakfast stuff and i believe we have the milk and tea which is the most essential thing , soda and eggs . so i believe yes we have everything so no need to waste time at the shop . i can go left right and return left right . simple life !!
okay i am still a hundred words more short of the three thousand words mark for this my the sunday Blog # 125 ( Hundred and twenty five ) so i better hurry up because if i did not shut down right now i will be late for the maghrib prayer at the mosque . so now is the time i have to quickly decide whether i really want to go now or maybe later for the Isha prayer . I really think that this is a better time to go if i really wanted to go because i will be back by 7:30 pm and can resume this my the Sunday Blog # 125 ( Hundred and twenty five ) so this is it . i am going yes
so i take a 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!

8:08 pm Good Evening !
yesterday on my way back from Maghrib i saw an awesome fourteenth moon . today it was awesome clouds no moon . The most interesting thing that happened today on the way to the mosque was that ...less than a year ago when i started going to this mosque or maybe lesser ....somewhere between nine and six i am still not sure i will have to check because till the new years eve i was going the other mosque on tariq road ...yes and i wasn't going for the maghrib i was going for the zuhr prayer and winter afternoon walk .....yes so it is six months or less ....i don't believe it ...construction had just began probably a month before when i first saw this plot behind the mosque and today it was illuminated in the cleaning stage . The Architecture and design is so wasteful luxuary . Two local estate agents who saw me looking at it with admiration remarked ...iss ney bahut gand pehlaya ...image containing the beauitiful structure not available . lets see what happens when a memon buys it and obviously redesign it . so next review in 10, 9, eight months ....insha Allah .
Will probably make an office or something . Anyways ....
my dinner is probably ready as i can smell something very meaty and nice like Lebanese kababs frying nearby ....so let me take a break and go check and take some pictures .
8:45 pm Break ( 3280 words)
10:06 pm Drizzle , smoke and Lebanese kabab ....with puri paratha ...and gulab jaman ....
Masha Allah !
10:10 pm ho giya hai toh now i can relax and forget about the chaapaz . But the amazing thing is that we were preparing for it and all day and look who got a chaapa today .....The Mian Brothers of Avenfield london

Okay anyways
LOL
ThankGod little time left i have to watch Na Maloom Afrad 2 ....wanted to watch it on eid nights but got stuck in Maalik for three nights . it was so dragging that i fall asleep all three nights and wake up with a charging gone .... the only thing i really enjoyed in that movie was the matrix shot .....lol
So now lets do the movies of the week
Saurabh Shukla and radhika apte were great in this movie and so was grover ji the topic is great and thought provoking .....The throw away pet bottles of pepsi and pakola all around me filled with tap water is a clear sign that the generation before me did not do something right or atleast the people who were given power to do good did not and especially the chosen ones . Really great movie .
That's it ....oh yes i watched a little beginning of Sanju as well but you cannot call it watching the movie so let it go this week lets see if i get to watch it again because it was deleted from the youtube site channel i watched from .
Okay so here i end this my the Sunday Blog # 125 ( Hundred and twenty five ) a little early ....With all the best wishes and happy memories of this really awesome week and Eid . And want to dedicate this really nice catchy song from the Movie Race 3 ...to All the Miss Used in my Life ....yes especially you !!
Peace and
Allah Hafiz !
