Man of Steel

Oh no, i won't be talking about the recently released hollywood movie 'Man of Steel'. Its just not worth my time and effort.
 A very sad and inhumane incident happened regarding the devastation of the residence of Quiad-e-Azam Muhammed Ali Jinnah in Ziarat, Balochistan. My heart cries out after such a disrespect of our Quiad. I just couldn't contain myself to not say a word or two to condemn this incident and express my gratitude and honor for a Man who set a foundation of our country on the World map. He was a Man of Steel and is a great inspiraion for me. I just love him for everything he was and he did for the muslims of subcontinent and his die-hard efforts, hard-word, determination and foresightedness for a separate muslim country. A country we have today, Pakistan, with all the choices and freedom of a motherland.
Sadly, due to certain external forces and intruders who are trying their best to divide Pakistan based on nationalist groups & separatists focusing on creating hatred and ethinic conflicts among us. In order to pursue power and instigate fear in the community, such horrific and shameful examples are set, and none other than getting aid from those external figures who don't want peace and unity among the people of Pakistan. Its time we should smarten' up and act accordingly, and that time is Now. Instead of cursing and blaming eachother, lets curse and fight those who create such malice and malevolence. Islam teaches brotherhood, lets have some heart to show it to our brothers and sisters of our faith. For heavens sake, lets not call ourselves Punjabi, Sindhi, Baloch or Pathan for once. Lets not confuse culture, dress, language, skin color, way of life, religious affinity and geographical differences with our Muslim identity and "Khudara" to not be a threat to the safety of our dearest Pakistan. Lets savour Freedom, free our thoughts from the confinements of Satan and rise above and beyond nationalism.
Fortunately, there are people who do care with their heart and soul and they are contributiong tremendously for this cause. They are persistent to unveil those black sheeps and courageous enough to speak their minds.
Tahira Baloch from Bolan TV, is one such fearless person trying her best to make a significant difference in such dire circumstances in present Balochistan. I came across her Facebook page just randomly, i guess out of luck. Her expressive patriotism and love of Pakistan speaks so profoundly that it inspires me, not to mention various threats to her life. May you be protected and guided by Almighty.
Lastly, we do not want another Bangladesh or civil wars/threats among us. Its time to be wise and anti-racist at individual level.
