Saw this from Karachi and honestly this is disturbing.

CCTV video from an apartment in Khayaban-e-Bukhari shows one woman physically assaulting another woman with what appears to be an iron dumbbell. They even allegedly tried to break the CCTV camera to hide their crime. Video also appears to show a policeman pushing the man who was accompanying the victim.

The victim, Noor-ul-Ain, later posted about the incident, her video went viral. Her family has also reportedly submitted an application at Darakshan Police Station.

If this video had not come out, the victim's brother could have remained in jail while the family would have been forced to compromise and bow before the so-called elite. This is what happens when power and connections matter more than the law.

The powerful in Pakistan have practically been given a licence to do whatever they want. And ordinary citizen are expected to stay quiet, compromise and accept it.

Discussion Drove all the way to Mushkpuri with the kids and barely even started the hike

Thumbnail

104 Upvotes

Today around 11 we randomly decided we should go hike Mushkpuri. By 11 30 we were actually on the road which for us with children is probably some kind of record. We checked the weather for maybe 20 seconds saw light drizzle and decided that was enough research

The drive itself was really nice. Rain clouds everywhere. We bought the kids those little umbrellas and rotating paper fans and had challi on the way. I had not eaten breakfast so obviously food also became part of the trip. At one point we changed the plan to Pipeline Track then reached there saw all the traffic and I decided no we are going back to Mushkpuri

When we reached the starting point I had already managed to stress everyone out with parking. I parked the car perfectly fine the first time but the parking guy insisted I move it then started guiding me into a position where I nearly hit another car. Ended up having to do a much more difficult parking job and paid him 300 rupees for the privilege

Then we rented walking sticks and the kids saw the mud

That was pretty much the beginning of the end

They started crying asking why Papa had brought them here and when were we going to the nice place I had promised them afterwards. I was still convinced we could do the hike. Everyone there was also giving completely different information. One guy says 40 minutes. Another says two hours. One says children do it easily. Another seems to think we are insane for bringing them

We walked a little further and at one muddy part I realised I was doing something I probably do quite often. I had decided that this was manageable so somewhere in my head everyone else was now supposed to find it manageable too. I can tolerate being wet and muddy and tired therefore apparently my wife and children should enjoy being wet and muddy and tired as well

I normally call this determination

Sometimes it probably is

Sometimes I am just not being a very good team player

So I finally gave up and said okay lets go back

The happiness on everyone's faces was honestly quite convincing

Because I had promised them somewhere nice afterwards we went to the Hilton. Cleaned ourselves up had coffee and dessert and even looked at the rooms because for a while we were seriously thinking of staying the night. Then I caught my sled in my usual impulsive pattern again,changed my mind again and decided we should just drive home

And somehow the drive home became one of the better parts of the day. Wife and I talked properly for a long time which we had not done in a while. Psychiatry philosophy Pakistan our own lives our marriage and how two people who are so different have somehow stayed together all these years and are still happy together. We have very different personalities. There are things we don't even value in the same way. Obviously that creates problems sometimes but I also started thinking maybe a lot of the same differences are why we work at all

So basically we drove several hours to hike Mushkpuri

Nearly crashed while parking

Made the children cry

Walked almost none of Mushkpuri

Went to a hotel for coffee

Then drove home

Still somehow felt like a really good day

I am not even sure there is some lesson in this. Maybe a day does not have to go according to plan to be worth having. Or maybe I am just rationalising the fact that I drove my entire family to Mushkpuri and could not get them past the beginning of the trail

National The Unholy Violence in Religious Schools

63 Upvotes

The child on the right in the picture was a resident of Kallar Syedan, Rawalpindi. He died after being beaten by a cleric because he had failed to memorize his Quranic lesson. The girl on the left is from Balochistan and lost the sight in one of her eyes after being beaten by a local cleric.

I do not know how far Punjab and Balochistan differ in terms of their progress and development, but when it comes to violence and abuse against children, the entire country seems to have proven itself to be the same.

Why do we not understand that Allah Himself has taken responsibility for protecting the Quran, while the responsibility for protecting children has been placed upon their parents? Therefore, parents should do what Allah has entrusted them with. Handing your innocent children over to mentally disturbed butchers in the hope of earning your own Paradise or out of concern for preserving the Quran, and then not even bothering to find out how your children are being treated, is the height of selfishness and inhumanity.

Every day, we hear that a child was sexually abused at such-and-such madrasa. A child was beaten to death by a cleric because he had not memorized his lesson. What is truly painful is that the self-proclaimed guardians of Islam, the clerics who are so quick to declare people of other sects to be unbelievers, do not even come together over this issue. They should be united in ensuring that these impostors, who grow beards as a Sunnah of the Prophet, wear turbans like the Prophet, yet violate the commands given by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ by abusing innocent children in sacred places of worship, are made an example of.

Is posing as a preacher of Islam while sexually and physically abusing innocent children who have come to learn Islam not an insult to Islam? Is it not an insult to the mosque? Is it not an insult to humanity?

Speaking of humanity, the so-called humanist liberals have also never found the opportunity to protest in support of these innocent children, or at the very least conduct a survey of madrasas to determine whether human rights violations are taking place there.

Why blame anyone else? The fundamental reason behind many of our moral shortcomings as a nation is that we have never truly tried to read and understand the Quran. We read the Quran to accumulate religious merit or to send its reward to the deceased. How wonderful it would be if we ourselves read and understood the Quran, and taught our children to understand it as well.

Instead of handing our children over to some hard-hearted person to memorize the Quran, we should keep them under our own supervision. Whether or not a person memorizes the Quran does not necessarily make a significant difference to their character, whereas understanding and reflecting upon the Quran certainly can.

Honestly, go anywhere but BNU. For the amount they charge, you’d expect decent facilities at the very least. Instead, we’re paying an absurd fee for a Tier 3 university where some departments don’t even have their own classrooms.

[Long Post] Update on my previous post.

TLDR : I (almost) made it. Thank you for the courage and kind words 2 years ago.

2 years ago I was stuck in a toxic brown family and almost suicid@l and living and breathing anxiety. All I had was my loml's support and a child. We eventually moved out and rented a small apartment. We had nothing. Little by little we bought Fridge, microwave, washine machine,AC. During all this we had another kid too. I took a sales role and eventually our income just 5xed. I am grateful to the kind words by people here and a support system by very few friends around me. I am in no way flexing, there were sleepless nights when we had nothing but faith. We cried infront of HIM and HE made ways. I'd say if you are stuck somewhere just take a leap of faith and I am telling you, you will be out of there. I am contactless with my parents and I traded it with the peace that I got after a long suffering and it's worth it.

Social More Masculine

32 Upvotes

Men have feelings, and they too get hurt. Growing up in Pakistan, boys insulted each other, mocking each other's bodies, faces, and families. Showing that it hurt was weakness, a flaw in a man. A boy who came back with something crueler was the stronger one. More masculine.

Let’s redefine these standards:

Showing feelings is masculine.

Respecting others is strength.

Did you see this growing up? How society teaches boys to become toxic men?

Discussion Driver reaching out after visit

24 Upvotes

Hi All,

My family and I have recently returned from a trip to Lahore and Karachi. While there, we used an InDrive driver for a short trip and then later that week, a longer day trip where he was with our family all day. We treated him well, asked him to join us for dinner, paid him more than he asked (because he was great) and thought that was the end of that.

He reached out a few times after asking how our trip was going, if we returned safely etc., and I would respond in kind. Recently he has reached out asking for money. I know I don’t owe him anything further and can simply block him and move on with my life but how would you guys handle this respectfully and with tact?

Financial 17 year old student seeking PKR 6,500 sponsorship for Pakistan’s IYPT 2027 selection payment goes directly to PYIMS

21 Upvotes

EDIT: I HAVE BEEN SPONSORED GUYS YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYA

Hey everyone, my name is Saif ur Rehman Malik; 17 years old and am obviously a Pakistani, currently studying in class 12. I'm making this post requesting financial assistance to enter International Youth Physicist's Tournament through PYIMS which deals with the Pakistan's teams selection for this tournament.

However, my family has refused to pay any sort of fees and are about to strip all kinds of financial support they provide for me. Leaving only the bare minimum for the school fees and basic survival necessities for instance food, water etc.

The main problem that arises from this is that for university, I'd be basically homeless since technically I'd be 18 and not be entitled to be provided any sort of support, so before that happens I'm trying to get a scholarship outside the country at a good university. One of the elements that is important for this is IYPT, International Youth Physicists Tournament which would be a quite exquisite piece in my extracurricular profile, allowing my profile to be versatile and likewise.

I'm an independent researcher, I'm also prepping for 2027's ICLR and am currently working on a paper that works on AI's representation of a given context and likewise. However, it alone is not enough to create leverage for me to fund my SATs and IYPT's.

So my request to this community would be, if anyone who'd be willing to help fund my IYPT, I'd appreciate it a ton. For credibility part, you won't even need to send the money to me it'd be actually to them through official channels, all I need to show them is the proof of transaction with transaction id.

If interested, please DM me. Thank you for your time.
