National Security and Patriotism
Every country is concerned about its national security and it is not only what holds its integrity but its very existence. In times of adversities and threats from fanatics, who hold no existence in themselves, in fact are like children creating their tantrums just to pursue world attention, should a nation look at every citizen with an eye of doubt and question their patriotism? The fanatics who are not humans in any kind are not only a threat to any nation in particular but to the entire mankind as they prey on humans for quenching their savage thirst of highly craved popularity and egoism. We cannot justify any nation undermining the basic rights and their stance of patriotism in light of national security threats posed by animals like these.
In fact any nation is in high need of securing the trust of its countrymen to ensure that these lunatics are kept a watch on.
No one can read the human mind but there are always ways to people’s hearts and also learn their authenticity.
The Indo-Pak issue can be solved by the citizens of both countries and not by talks of politicians who have always projected their concerns to each other on a different platform.
The Government of Pakistan should ask itself and understand that it is a target to the savages that pose a threat to mankind and its people are in need of security just as the human beings of India.
Having always looked at the Indo-Pak issue as an onlooker, I have always thought that do the majority of people in both countries really care about the Kashmir issue or not. I think a common man cares nothing but about his stomach and his family. Why so people call mother land, because it feeds you and cares for you, and that care results to love and patriotism.
Ask any person on Earth in his senses and he will curse the people who are making this world an insecure place and instead of peace of mind, soul and body; creating threats and panic. No one likes a life of this kind.
May Allah bless the Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin (TUS) the “Ambassador of Peace” a long life whose duas have created secured nations for Mumineen worldwide and whose wishes are for all beings to live in harmony in this world. Ameen

Making a difference
History has known the people who have spent their lives behind ideas that have become realities of today and it has taken years to bring those thoughts to shape. It was their initiative, but the world seldom remembers those who have influenced the lives of others by thinking differently.
Years of dedication and thinking have brought to life an idea that I had envisioned and though people are happy with it I have rarely felt that joy. Any how I do feel very lucky and grateful to my Maula (TUS) whose duas have materialized my virtual dreams into reality and there is much more to do. I feel his eyes looking at me as I write this log. May Allah bless our beloved Maula (TUS) with the pink of health.

Raigarh Ashara 1431
It was almost 3 hours before the Pehli Raat that I got the Taqleed Mubarak and it was very far off. RAIGARH in Chhattisgarh is 2 hours by train from Bilaspur. The nearest International Airport is Nagpur. Immediately after booking the ticket which had a 60+ waiting list I lost hope for a confirm ticket but I had to make it and travel was of 26 hours from Mumbai. I did manage to get through to RAC and the journey was quite easy. 15 families and a total of 72 Mumineen including children it was a very small place in terms of a moze but I had to do what I had to. A lot of things did need a close look and I think it must have been my fate to be there to resolve certain issues and matters.
Looking back at the last day of my visit I feel satisfied of the number of things that were accomplished in such a sort trip. Issues of Madrasa, afternoon niyaz which will be done by a family for now on for 3 years, Iftar during Shehrullah will be done by a Mumin for 3 years. I feel satisfied if all goes well. The rest is all just not to be remembered.
The sharaf of praying on the takht of Daiz Zaman on the day of Ashura by his raza is so enormous that one cannot account for it, may Allah fullfil our wishes to serve His Dai and grant him a long life. Ameen

Photography and Cameras
Photography is an art just like any other. A paint brush in the hands of a child does not create marvels and neither does a novice understand the true depth of a painting that might get sold for a 100K and might think it as a waste of money. Photography used to be a pretty expensive hobby and I remember my first camera at the age of 12 used to cost somewhere around a 4 MP digicam nowadays and the cost of its photo processing was far more than today’s so called children in the field would afford.
With cameras growing cheaper nowadays and the pixel rate of the digicam rising up to 15 Mp and even more it is not surprising that every other person today acts like a photographer. With the DSLR in fashion today and the ease at which any other person would afford it, the amateurs just pretend to be Pros.
Point to shoot and DSLRs, there are several places where you could easily find the differences of both and their pros and cons, google is your best friend I would say. The DSLR is not for fashion or for show biz its a real pro’s game tool and ammo. Some one said that most of the cat walkers on the ramp don’t even know what DSLR stands for!!!
I have seen people just shoot and keep shooting without focus or without any meaning. When one acts like a pro photographer one should choose before releasing the shutter. If, for example, one is trying to capture a majlis scene, you should take care of the proper poses and postures of all those who will be seen in the picture, not that someone is touching the bread or standing for raza or so on. Its the timing in the entire pictures that matters not just the focus point of the picture. Also if you are not aware with handling the DSLR then you are sure to land into a bad situation.
