And this is my the Sunday Blog № 280 ( Two Hundred and Eighty) .
This is the nauchandi Sunday ...meaning the first Sunday after the sighting of the new moon ...So first of All ...
A very Happy and Blessed New Islamic Year 1443 H .
Last week , there was a lockdown in the city . Today nishter road is very much divided . Especially around the Martin road imam place . One side is clearly in the celebratory mood and the other is desperately trying to get into the mourning mood .
So finally the Independence day celebrations are over ..and one side of the road partying for over a week will now relax and most probably go home .
The other side will now focus attention and have Muharram peaceful without interference from the Sindh govt and lockdown restrictions . Wearing mask and taking the name of the world famous Pandemic is completely forbidden in practice for the next forty five days . Anybody seen mentioning it will be marked as Spenser .
The holy month of Zilhij was amazing ....I was very much able to keep my head cool and clear ...thanks to the fasting and feasting . We also had a nuclear test as my dear elder brother who is too fond of playing with the horns of the super agile sacrificial animals ...fell down and broke his crown ...
I was also planning to fast in this month of Muharram to keep my cool and negative thoughts under control .
But somehow ......
I could not ...and because of it ...I lost my cool . And begin to have negative thoughts .
But the best part is that it's not just mental . I feel like I am experiencing the hulk like situation as if my body is suddenly growing
Suddenly my muscles begin to expand and my old shirt sleeves felt a little tighter .
I fell like I have lost my appetite. .
Continuously feeling drowsy .I am not very sure but I do feel taller then my self by an inch or two .
Could this be the effects of surviving the global Pandemic or am I taking so kind of muscles building steroids .
Anabolic steroids, also known more properly as anabolic–androgenic steroids (AAS),[1] are steroidal androgens that include natural androgens like testosterone as well as synthetic androgens that are structurally related and have similar effects to testosterone. They increase protein within cells, especially in skeletal muscles, and also have varying degrees virilizing effects, including induction of the development and maintenance of masculine secondary sexual characteristics such as the growth of facial and body hair. The word anabolic, referring to anabolism, comes from the Greek ἀναβολή anabole, "that which is thrown up, mound". Androgens or AAS are one of three types of sex hormone agonists, the others being estrogens like estradiol and progestogens like progesterone.
AAS were synthesized in the 1930s, and are now used therapeutically in medicine to stimulate muscle growth and appetite, induce male puberty and treat chronic wasting conditions, such as cancer and AIDS. The American College of Sports Medicine acknowledges that AAS, in the presence of adequate diet, can contribute to increases in body weight, often as lean mass increases and that the gains in muscular strength achieved through high-intensity exercise and proper diet can be additionally increased by the use of AAS in some individuals.[2]
Health risks can be produced by long-term use or excessive doses of AAS.[3][4] These effects include harmful changes in cholesterol levels (increased low-density lipoprotein and decreased high-density lipoprotein), acne, high blood pressure, liver damage (mainly with most oral AAS), and dangerous changes in the structure of the left ventricle of the heart.[5] These risks are further increased when, as they often do, athletes take steroids alongside other drugs, causing significantly more damage to their bodies.[6] The effect of anabolic steroids on the heart can cause myocardial infarction and strokes.[6] Conditions pertaining to hormonal imbalances such as gynecomastia and testicular size reduction may also be caused by AAS.[7] In women and children, AAS can cause irreversible masculinization.[7]
Ergogenic uses for AAS in sports, racing, and bodybuilding as performance-enhancing drugs are controversial because of their adverse effects and the potential to gain unfair advantage in physical competitions. Their use is referred to as doping and banned by most major sporting bodies. Athletes have been looking for drugs to enhance their athletic abilities since the Olympics started in Ancient Greece.[6] For many years, AAS have been by far the most detected doping substances in IOC-accredited laboratories.[8][9] In countries where AAS are controlled substances, there is often a black market in which smuggled, clandestinely manufactured or even counterfeit drugs are sold to users.
Falling asleep 😴

5:41 am Break ( 990 words )
6:30 am I was totally prepared for the nashta especial Sunday breakfast ...but right now I really don't feel like it ...and the stuff arm muscles and burping after tea and chilled water is really not helping it .
So I better take a Panadol and sleep 😴
Or I continue doing this my the Sunday Blog № 280 ( Two Hundred and Eighty) until I fall asleep 😴 again
The Independence day :
As usual the sounds of fireworks started few minutes early ....it was distant and scattered .
But when the clock hit the 12 midnight ...it was the sight and sound of a War zone . I always wonder
If this is the aerial firing of joy and happiness celebration mood of the people of Karachi ☠️ the most dangerous city...how would it be when they are mad angry or in a bad mood .
Anyways , since it was just the sound of bang bang ...boom and sight of the color and lights ...so I came back inside and turned on the volume of QTV ....they were reciting the salaam ...the beggers favorite ....
Rok Leti Hai Aapki Nisbat,Teer Jitne Bhi Humpe Chalte Hain
Yeh Karam Hai Huzoor Ka Humpar,Aane Waale Azab Tallte Hain.
Woh Hi Bharte Hain Jholiyan Sabki Woh Samajhte Hain Boliyan Sabki
Aao Bazar-E-Mustafa Ko Chalein Gham Khushi Main Wahin Pe Dhalte Hain.
Apni Auqat Sirf Itni Hai Kuch Nahi Baat Sirf Itni Hai
Kal Bhi Tukron Pe Unke Palte They, Ab Bhi Tukron Pe Unke Palte Hain.
Aur Ab Humain Kiya Koi Giray Ga, Har Sahara Gale Lagaye Ga
Humne Khud Ko Gira Diya Hai Wahan, Girne Wale Jahan Sambhalte Hain.
Ghar Wohi Mushkbaar Hote Hain, Khuld Se Humkinaar Hote Hain
Zikr-E-Sarkar Ke Hawalon Se Jin Gharon Main Chirag Jalte Hain.
Zikr-E-Sarkar Ke Ujalon Ki, Be nihaan Hain Rifa'atain Khalid
Yeh Ujale Kabhi Na Simtain Gay,Yeh Woh Suraj Nahi Jo Dhalte Hain.
Rok Leti Hai Aapki Nisbat,Teer Jitne Bhi Humpe Chalte Hain
Yeh Karam Hai Huzoor Ka Humpar,Aane Waale Azab Tallte Hain.
روک لیتی ہے آپ کی نسبت تیر جتنے بھی ہم پہ چلتے ہیں
یہ کرم ہے حضور کا ہم پہ، آنے والے عذاب ٹلتے ہیں
اپنی اوقات صرف اتنی ہے کچھ نہیں بات صرف اتنی ہے
کل بھی ٹکڑوں پہ ان کے پلتے تھے اب بھی ٹکڑوں پہ ان کے پلتے ہیں
وہ سمجھتے ہیں بولیاں سب کی وہی بھرتے ہیں جھولیاں سب کی
آو بازار مصطفیﷺ کو چلیں کھوٹے سکے وہیں پہ چلتے ہیں،
اب کوئی کیا ہمیں کرائے گا ہر سہارا گلے لگائے گا
ہم نے خود کو گرا دیا ہے وہاں، گرنے والے جہاں سنبھتے ہیں
دل کی حسرت وہ پوری فرمائیں اس طرح طیبہ مجھ کو بلوائیں
میرے مرشد یہ مجھ سے فرمائیں آو طیبہ نگر کو چلتے ہیں
ان کے دربار کے اجالے کی ر فعتیں ہیں بے نہاں خالد
یہ اجالے کبھی نہ سمٹیں گے یہ وہ سورج نہیں جو ڈھلتے ہیں
مزید دیکھیے[ترمیم]
روک لیتی ہے آپ ﷺ کی نسبت،تیر جتنے بھی ہم پہ چلتے ہیں

اُنﷺ کےدربار کےاجالوں کی بےنہاں رفعتیں ہیں اے خالد

The professional can recite these few lines for very long time until your hand goes into the pocket ....so anyways ,
When they finally finished it ...I channel surf to see what is going on in the city and the rest of the country celebrating the 75th Independence day . Most of the news channels were showing live scenes from all over the country with their field anchors explaining the illumination , fireworks , people on the streets , and green horns with horrible sounds
About half an hour later I got up and checked the latest status of the fireworks and aerial firing sounds in my neighborhood , home town .
Individual sounds were still coming from far far away ..the neighborhood was almost quiet now . Except for the sounds of motorbikes and police protocols moving towards the mazar e Quaid nearby . .
Interesting people come down from all over the city and some even from all over the country and world ...to celebrate the Independence day at the mazar e Quaid ...but despite being so near ...I never go .
So first I prayed 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!
اللہ پاک میرے پیارے والدین ، پاپا
اور امی پر رحم فرمائے ، اور ان کو اللہ تعالی کی رحمت نصیب ہو ، اور ان کی روح کوجنت میں آرام نصیب ہو ۔ آمین!
Fall asleep 😴
Continuing....the Independence day ...so after prayers and supper ...I lie down in bed to watch the movies ...so to celebrate it was the 1969 Hindi classic ...Aradhana or something like that ....about how The Enemy ruins the life of an Indian AIRFORCE OFFICER .
In interval ...I surfed the channels and it must be my lucky night ....I catch the very beginning of the latest Parineeti Chopra movie ...Sandeep aur pinky Faraar (2021) ....
I knew that if I be good and watched this ....I might catch the climax of the oldie ... musical ...even if they cut short the sexy songs for the cable audience ....and believe me the educational movie finished I rushed to other one the celebratory one ...and they were just disclosing about the parentage of the Indian AIRFORCE OFFICER .
Not at all shocked to see the aircommodore shocked to see a Xerox copy of the Indian AIRFORCE OFFICER under his command before the interval . This movie was taking to long to end and I was afraid that I might miss the sound of 21 Gun Salute of the Independence day at the crack of dawn ....despite my being all ears I missed it ...maybe the used up all the gunpowder in the midnight fireworks or saved it for a rainy day ...feel very bad all day .
Then I prayed the fajr 🛐 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!
اللہ پاک میرے پیارے والدین ، پاپا
اور امی پر رحم فرمائے ، اور ان کو اللہ تعالی کی رحمت نصیب ہو ، اور ان کی روح کوجنت میں آرام نصیب ہو ۔ آمین!
After prayer I made tea and then tried to cook the aloo Choley tarkari ...but by the time it was half cooked ...I fall asleep 😴
Luckily I did not forget to turn off the stove and saved the aloo Choley tarkari for later .
When I woke at 2 pm the water was finished in the tap for bath and Wazu ...so the celebration was absolutely over !
And the only entertainment was the Taliban advance towards Kabul the capital of Islamic raw public of Afghanistan .
That's all folks....
