Sunday 7 August 2022

The Sunday Blog № 331


 Today is the Sunday,

And this is my the Sunday Blog № 331 ( Three Hundred and Thirty One ) 


Yes today is the 7th of August 2022 ,

The 8th of Muharram 1444H

Till the Sunset ( 7:13 pm ; Karachi ) 

30°C / NA 


Moon NA 


12:09 am 


This week despite Muharram we had four times a day and night loadshedding . The first one begins at midnight till one am probably has something to do with the wordle drop .

Having nothing better to do I usually end up doing the wordle daily with mobile data . It should be fun but you know the hot and humid weather of Karachi when it's not raining or thunderstorming...is that a word ? 

Besides the hot and humid weather ...I am eating a lot of beef haleem both homemade and takeaway ....so even though it appears to be a non meaty dish of grains and pulses but infact has an equal amount or more of severely mashed beef . So the moment fan or wind stops I begin to sweat very bad . The kmc having nothing to not do during the break from rain and thunderstorm started shepherding the mosquitoes to my neighborhood . They hate my neighbors no doubt about it . So the moment loadshedding begins the mosquitoes starts the happy songs of joy and feasting. Imagine that in muharram . 

In this half an hour I am not sure how many times I have been bitten by the mosquitoes as I am sitting in the lawn under the white shiny cloudy sky it has been drizzling intermittently since the evening. Did not rain or thunderstorm as predicted . The met office says that Karachi is under spell from two sides An interesting New Monsoon Phenomenon. I am desperately trying to comprehend and contemplate. 

So help me God the All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏



Right now I am on the other mobile without the Sim meaning No Data 

Doing this my the Sunday Blog № 331 ( Three Hundred and Thirty One) on the note pad  so there is no distractions of the wordle will do it when and if I have the wifi ....

The if is very important the loadshedding not just leaves my neighborhood powerless it has distrupted All the schedule

Like water pumps , garbage disposal , sleeping , watching , net surfing , social media , online shopping , eating , etc 

Sometimes when the loadshedding is over and electricity restores , the net or cable does not or mobile networking goes away . And you know that now every tom dick and Harry in the local administration has the power to unplug the mobile network , data network and cable tv of my neighbors. And besides it's the rainy season as well so there can be a fault to . 


My street is usually very quiet during the midnight loadshedding but this week they are having the night processions of Muharram main roads are blocked so the motorcycle youth belonging to desperate age group are roaming the streets and having fun . There is a pillion riding ban during the day so it's a very good time for the bikers to practice giving ride to their friends . The most interesting scene is when the rider speaks loudly while driving the bike so that the person behind the rider behind him can listen . And his voice and the bikes sound combined turns it into just noise and nobody understands what he is saying .But the speaker enjoy it a lot and feels good himself even if he makes no sense. 


Okay the Karachi Electric has restored my electricity ...so now I am back inside on the carpet floor under the fan and without the mosquitoes playing Pinterest on my body especially the feet and singing a Happy song . 


I have to plug in this mobile to charger and do the wordle daily, 

Have a cup of tea and a little snack and relax 


1:20 am Break !

2:25 am so about 2 and a half hours left till the Fajr prayer loadshedding 5-6 am 


The most shocking news in the media this week is that the most unorthodox tv anchor and show host and model mathira is praying tahajjud and reciting Quran 


While urfi Javed is making her followers and papparazzi  wish for a wordrobe malfunction . 





So what next ..... probably the by elections ....seat vacant by the death of MNA 



Imran Khan with the blessings and full support of US has decided to contest the By elections on all seats vacant by the resignations of his party pti MNAs in protest against the regime change. 


His open narrative against the Election Commission and the Election Commissioner and recent Successes are very shocking even more shocking than the findings of the foreign funding case judgement against him .  The opposition is not too optimistic and Sure Absolutely Not ! 


5:50 am Fall asleep ! 

No loadshedding at 5am I was woken up by the cat . It ate something where and pissed on my red valvet quilt ...no the other one ...

Praiseth the Lord All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏 I wàs not in bed and it did not piss on the carpet floor on me .... anyways I opened the door let him out and then saw the room door open so I checked and the wet thing was not so hard to find ...I hanged it outside and washed it ...in the lawn now the crows or the rain will do their thing ....I love the quilt too much I am not ready to part ways yet so.... anyways despite all this drama I managed to wash clean change clothes and pray fajr with a prayer for my dearly departed parents papa and Ammi and the Recently Departed Aslam Bhai



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!




Dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah 

please forgive my dear loving and caring  brother Aslam Bhai and give him the highest place in Jannah 


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!




پیارے مہربان رب اللہ پاک میرے پیارے اور خیال رکھنے والے بھائی اسلم بھائی کی مغفرت فرمائے اور جنت الفردوس میں اعلیٰ مقام عطا فرمائے


 آمین!


Sisters fajr alarm was constantly ringing 
Thank God the All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏 that she did not wake up or I had to explain everything I did and did not do. 
This is the second time this week the cat has done something like this ... earlier this year after the winter rain when we were in the mourning the twins were just kittens and they started doing their business everywhere inside so we had to lock them outside ...
One of the twins was female it stopped waiting for meal leftovers even though we had plenty in those days  as we were having fateha twice a week . 
First it started scavenger hunt in the neighborhood and then it started hunting pigeons fresh blood she was enjoying hunting and leaving the Caracas for her twin . Soon the duration of her expeditions started to grow . And one day it found a new abode or new life and never came back . 

Umme Hareem scandal I mentioned in the previous Sunday Blog ....turned out to be more embarrassment for the Sponsors .....
More embarrassments and sorrows were to follow all week for the Hollywood of Pakistan . A COVID-19 positive Biden announced that drone attack killed Alqaida leader Ayman al-Zawahiri

Ayman Mohammed Rabie al-Zawahiri[a][b] (June 19, 1951 – July 31, 2022) was an Egyptian-born terrorist and physician who served as the second emir of al-Qaeda from June 16, 2011, until his death.

    About the same time Pakistan 's ispr announced a helicopter missing with senior officials 

    A Pakistan army aviation helicopter which  was on flood relief operations in Lasbela, Balochistan lost contact with ATC. 6 individuals were on board including Commander 12 Corps who was supervising flood relief operations in Balochistan. Search operation is underway.DTF 


    And after keeping the media and social media in shock and hoping for a miracle it took away the hope 


    The wreckage of unfortunate hel which was on flood relief ops found in Musa Goth, Windar, Lasbela. All 6 offrs & sldrs incl Lt Gen Sarfraz Ali embraced shahadat. اِنّا لِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ

    Accident occurred due to bad weather as per initial investigations . DTF https://t.co/dnyano2vqC 


    The confusion over why the president of Pakistan was not allowed to attend the funeral immediately backfired . Mourning was taken over by political divide and intrigue. 

    Umme Hareem hashtags renewed with more fierce anti-state sentiments both media and social media blamed Pakistani Hollywood for everything. 


    Some fake Twitter accounts confirmed that the helicopter crash was a tactical drone error 



    Army Chief called or received Sponsors , Creditors and PayPal service providers and apologized for everything. 


    Days after seeking US help in securing an early release of a crucial $1.7 billion instalment from the IMF to Pak, Army chief General Bajwa has now reached out to Saudi Arabia and the UAE to ensure financial assistance for the cash-strapped nation.

    Sounds Ridiculous



    Sun 8th Muharram 1444H 
    30°C
    12:29 pm No Loadshedding by KElectricPk today yet 
    Woke up to check the water pump  
    No rain or thunderstorms as predicted 
    Very hot and sunny 
    Washed the Quilt again 
    No Service of Telenor not sure about other networks

    So there will be rain hard and fast later but not now ....I don't understand why but somehow the hot sunny weather this morning aided me in washing and drying my velvet quilt and pillow from the cat piss ..





    Watching Fawad ch presser about foreign funding....

    I don't think his narrative is  politically correct about pmln and ppp . Pti should say yes we got funded and they stole public funds .
    But I guess this presser is a tit for tat of the govt pressers and threats .



    The Pakistani media is totally enjoying this judgement . Especially the primetime show Anchors and lifafa journalist ...who are getting to attend dozens of pressers all day .

    2:34 pm Thunderstorm has began somewhere not here it's still sunny and hot quilt drying ...
    I had Sunday brunch 












    The Sun is so gone...now I can't decide to pick up the almost dry quilt ...or leave it in rain ....it won't dry ever ...



    The thunderstorm getting nearer....

    Got to go and pray with a prayer for my dearly departed parents papa and Ammi and the Recently Departed Aslam Bhai


    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!



    Dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah 
    please forgive my dear loving and caring  brother Aslam Bhai and give him the highest place in Jannah 

    Amen !

    وَيُسَبِّحُ ٱلرَّعْدُ بِحَمْدِهِۦ وَٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ مِنْ خِيفَتِهِۦ وَيُرْسِلُ ٱلصَّوَٰعِقَ فَيُصِيبُ بِهَا مَن يَشَآءُ وَهُمْ يُجَـٰدِلُونَ فِى ٱللَّهِ وَهُوَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْمِحَالِ

    4:31 pm the first Nuclear Power Shutdown of the Sunday 
    No rain here yet can't sit here and let the mosquitoes feast and play the happy song ۔۔۔


      5:25 pm The shutdown continue
    Very light drizzle 
    Asr Azan started all the rain lovers are out on the streets enjoying it 
    Some are expecting a complete closure of markets and Push carts of fruits and vegetables so they are out shopping for food and cooking essential

    I have asked many time if anything is required but I guess something will come up when the markets closes for holidays

    Yes the electricity and wifi is back so now I can update and the pray . The dinner is ready but I don't think I could eat before finishing this my the Sunday Blog № 331 ( Three Hundred and Thirty One) 

    Okay the sound of all generators stopped 

    Now I should go and help my sister In the kitchen before it was too dark . 
    She had a cramp or strained muscle and insists on cooking haleem for fateha ....she wanted to do it in one go ....because she is afraid that if pain grew she won't be able to start cooking on tenth ...everyday you learn a new interpretation of ....saving the best for the last ....when it comes to cooking Muharram haleem she used to cook the pulses earlier and freeze them ...but the muscle strain has changed everything now she wants to cook the traditional way .... thank God the All Mighty Allah Amen 🙏 she does not have extra ingredients or she would try to cook a degh ( couldron) 

    And talking of degh ...some neighbors family or friends brought degh and prayer mat probably the new neighbors....because the old ones next door were not involved in the activity infact looked very uneasy ....too close for comfort and not invited ....
    Oh life....I got to see all this and enjoy just because of the only loadshedding/ shutdown of the Sunday .

    it seems like the thunderstorm was called back in emergency.

    Anyways. 
    My dinner 










    Sleepy ..,..

    So  Army under a retired general installed by Pentagon under The Trump Administration has very low self esteem
    They are desperate otherwise ...they would never insisted that everybody call lack of judgement and human error , martyrdom or try to coverup a friendly fire by a us drone 
    Fateha :


    Believe you me it may sound very weird , funny or down right blasphemous....but Muharram is over for me . Yes I cannot imagine any sad or happy occasion without my Recently Departed elder brother. May his Soul rest in peace in jannah .Amen 🙏
    My life was always with him and for him . Never without him . I cannot do what he did ..it's not about being successful I without him cannot even imagine the failures like his. I don't hate him at all I hate myself for not taking better care of him ...my guilt is growing  with every passing sad or happy occasion without him . The only remorse I have is that since he passed away I prayed for him and for rain in Karachi especially on the dry and hot clear sunny days ...my prayer for rain I feel was heard more than I expected so I believe that my prayers for him may also be heard

    اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لَا إلَهَ إلَّا اللَّهُ وَاَللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلِلَّهِ الْحَمْد

    Transliteration: Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar La Ilaha Ilallah Wallahu Akbar Allahu Akbar Wa Lillahil Hamd


    Meaning: Allah is the greatest, Allah is the greatest. There is no deity (no god) besides Allah and Allah is the greatest. Allah is the greatest and to Allah all praises belong.

    🛐 a prayer for my dearly departed parents papa and Ammi and the Recently Departed Aslam Bhai


    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!



    Dear merciful Lord All Mighty Allah 
    please forgive my dear loving and caring  brother Aslam Bhai and give him the highest place in Jannah 

    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!



    پیارے مہربان رب اللہ پاک میرے پیارے اور خیال رکھنے والے بھائی اسلم بھائی کی مغفرت فرمائے اور جنت الفردوس میں اعلیٰ مقام عطا فرمائے
