Gambling

 Digital Swindlers and the Auction of Dreams By: Honey Bin Tariq Pakistan is currently witnessing a disturbing paradox: while economic hardship tightens its grip on the masses, smartphone screens are ablaze with glittering advertisements promising overnight riches. We frequently encounter slogans like "Win a bike for just 1 Rupee" or "Earn thousands daily from a new Russian app." While these appear to be innocent incentives, they are, in reality, the modern face of " Gambling "—a menace that has begun to plunder both the morality and the pockets of our nation. The New and Lethal Face of Gambling In the past, gambling was confined to specific dens, but today, it has breached the privacy of our bedrooms. "Bidding Wars" and "Online Gaming Apps" are merely sophisticated evolutions of traditional gambling. They lure users with small initial rewards, only to trap them in an endless, devastating financial cycle. Authentic References and Legal ...

Desire

 I have no desire for 'certificates of piety' by flaunting pictures of Umrah , Hajj , or charity . Unlike the pretenders, I am not obsessed with flashing statuses of Northern hilly areas to project wealth. I don't share the 'intoxicated' craze of taking selfies in malls and luxury hotels, nor is it my aim to intimidate others by posing with bureaucrats , politicians , or the establishment. I am not one of those shallow souls who post tours of Europe and the Gulf just to portray themselves as deities . Your work speaks for how 'giant' or 'mighty' you truly are. My family's grace and my own conscience do not allow me to use others as a crutch to build my identity. I am a brand in myself. I walk with the help of Allah alone, and in Him lies my entire trust. This is me—distinct from all of you. Honey Bin Tariq To reach this stature, even a hundred years would not be enough for you." عمرہ حج صدقہ خیرات کی تصاویر لگا کے پرہیزگاری کے سرٹیفکیٹ در...

  Preaching or Storytelling? A Scholarly Critique of  Maulana Tariq Jameel 's Controversial Statements 1. The Matter of the Funeral Prayer of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Claim: Allah Himself performed the funeral prayer (Janaza) of the Prophet (PBUH). Scholarly Reality: This claim contradicts the  Quran ,  Sunnah , and the consensus ( Ijma ) of the  Ummah . Reference: According to  Imam Ibn Kathir  ( Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah ) and other historians, the Companions ( Sahaba ) performed the funeral prayer in groups without a single leader (Imam).  Allah the Almighty  is pure and beyond performing prayer, as prayer is an act of servitude. Allah sends "Salat" (blessings/ Durood ), not a funeral prayer. 2. Insulting Analogies Regarding the Prophets (A.S) Claim: Prophet Yusuf's (A.S) face was blackened, and he was paraded through the city on a donkey. Scholarly Reality: Prophets are infallible (Ma'soom) and the chosen servants of Allah. Reference:  S...

  The Fragrance of Prophetic Discourse: Beyond Chains of Narration How an intuitive "spiritual taste" can distinguish between authentic tradition and fabrication. The recognition of Prophetic discourse (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) is not solely dependent on the technicalities of Isnad (chains of narration). It requires a specific spiritual intuition, intellectual depth, and a refined sense of discernment—a "spiritual taste" that is not granted to everyone. I recall a time before I had even reached the threshold of puberty. I heard popular narrations such as, "Seek knowledge even if you have to go to China," and "My companions are like stars; whichever of them you follow, you will be guided." Even then, my innocent heart remained unsettled. My mind refused to accept that these could be the words of the exalted Being upon whom the Divine Revelation (Wahi) descended. The Argument of Reason At that age, I possessed no formal expertise in the science ...

Shah Shams

 Spiritual Marketing and Cosmic Realities: The Myth of Multan ’s "Shams" and the Sun By: Honey Bin Tariq In our society, fabricated stories attributed to saints have become "lucrative products" for shrines and their custodians. One of the most prominent of these "products" is the tale of the " Meat and the Sun " in Multan, sold for centuries as a grand miracle. Let us analyze this story through the lenses of history, science, and logic. 1. The Historical Deception: Tabrizi vs. Sabzwari Viewed through the mirror of history, the shrine in Multan does not belong to Shah Shams Tabrizi at all. Shams Tabrizi: He was the world-renowned mentor of Maulana Rumi , whose life was centered in Konya (modern-day Turkey). Authentic historical records provide no evidence of him ever visiting Multan. Shams Sabzwari : The shrine in Multan actually belongs to Shah Shams Sabzwari, an Ismaili missionary who came from Sabzevar, Iran . The Analysis: Custodians took a...

Mask

  The bitterness in your words reflects a deep-seated social insensitivity that has taken root in a segment of our society. As a journalist and columnist, you undoubtedly observe these societal contradictions closely—where “ status symbols ” are often prioritized over true education and ethics . The points you raised expose the  double standards  of our educational system and social attitudes: 1. School Prestige and Silence  Parents pay exorbitant fees at elite private schools not just for education, but often to be part of a “ brand .” Faced with the imposing administrative structures and protocols of these institutions, parents often feel intimidated, which is why they lack the courage to ask tough questions there. 2. The Home Tutor : An Easy Target  Because a home tutor is directly accessible and often in a (comparatively) weaker financial position, parents exercise their full “commanding” instincts upon them. This behavior proves that we do not value kno...
