Today, I am getting success in one of my very important project. Details of project cannot be disclosed at this moment. Just imagine that I am very blessed today by the grace of God. (Allah).
Victoria Day is officially celebrated on the Monday closest to May 24. That is the day that was declared in 1901 by the Canadian government, to honor Queen Victoria following her passing. It usually falls on the third Monday in May.
Canadians are celebrating Queen Victoria’s birthday, and continue to honor Queen Victoria because of her important role in the formation of our country. Victoria was Queen at the time that Canada became a country in 1867 and she chose Ottawa as our nation’s capital.
As it is a long weekend, I hope most of you will be able to enjoy valuable time with friends and family members. I am in Toronto, enjoying the pleasant weather, firing up the barbeque, and doing my best to calm down after a busy week to complete my important activities.
Honestly, this time is very precious for me, and I think for all those people who know the value of time.

#Valentine’s Day is celebrated on February 14 every year. This day is dedicated to celebrate love, friendship, and admiration. It is the most awaited day of the year for any couple who believe in Valentine’s Day. It is a #Christian festival where people dress completely in red, including clothes and shoes, and they exchange red flowers. At this day love is in the air, Red color resonating the feeling of love, affection, warmth.
This day filled with the most love and affection with people for celebrating the popular festival of love, Valentine’s Day. The occasion not only allows people to shower their loved ones with love but also gives a perfect opportunity to confess one’s true feelings.
Although the occasion has far more #historical significance than most people know, it is heartily celebrated in the modern world famously with chocolates, flowers, gifts and romantic dinners.
”Is it permissible to Muslim for celebrating Valentine’s Day?” A debate arises over the permissibility of celebrating Valentine’s for Muslims.
As Muslims, we are supposed to love one another and to wish and inculcate love among people regardless of their color, race, religion, or identity. However, this does not mean dissolving our identity or blindly pretend and imitating other religions’ traditions and practices. Most people believe that it is prohibited to celebrate this Day because of these three reasons.
Islam is the religion of love, righteousness, mercy, and maintaining relations. Islam encourages all kinds of love. One of the most essential duties for Muslims is to become the ambassador of Islam by showing its beauty with their manners, actions, and words.
Also convey and portray that Islam is not a religion of revulsion and conservativeness but its beliefs are the most respectable that empowers the women as well as it also beautify the relationships in accordance with shariyah and Islamic Laws.
When we speak of love, the first thing which appears to mind is love between a man and woman. Islam promotes it within the holiness of marriage rather than prohibiting this kind of love. The foundation of marriage is love, compassion, understanding, forgiveness, and respect is found in the Qur’an and is stated as;
Perhaps nowhere is this more summarized than in love between Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his wife, Khadijah. He loved her deeply despite the age difference, and she loved him despite his poverty. She loved him because he was filled with Nobel manners, trustworthiness, perfect character, humanity, and loyalty and was also graceful. He loved her beauty of nature, nobility, understanding, and believing in him. Their love was so great that the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) continued to love Khadijah until the day he died.
It was reported that once Aisha asked him, was Khadija the only woman worthy of this love? After that, he replied that she was the only one who believed in me while no one else did. She accepted Islam while people display me, and she was the only one who helped and comforted me when none could help me.
Muslims are encouraged to treat everyone with kindness and purity, including non-Muslims. God does not prohibit us from keeping good ties with non-Muslims. You can treat them kindly and exchange gifts with them. Our religion is the most patient and peaceful one as it gives the message to be kind and gentle not only with the humans but animals as well….
Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier. –Mother Teresa

Let us look at the historical background of Valentine’s Day before diving deeper into the issue and its reality.
It is #mandatoryto get vaccinated for saving lives and to continue essential life activities such as businesses, jobs, travelling etc. The productions of #COVID-19 vaccines continue to boost, and more and more people are getting vaccinated every day. The vaccines created to address the #novel coronavirus may join the smallpox, polio, and measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines as major progresses in saving lives. The speed at which #COVID-19 vaccines were developed was stunning. Vaccines usually takes several years to develop. The quickest any vaccine had been developed previously was the four years it took to create the mumps vaccine. #COVID-19 vaccines were created in less than a year. Just as important, the leading COVID-19 vaccines worked stunningly well; the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are both more than 90 percent effective against early COVID-19 variants. That was deadly because COVID-19 is incredibly adaptive. The #Delta variant, first identified in December 2020 in India, was more #infectious than its predecessors and soon became the dominant strain around the world. In November 2021, South African #scientists identified the emergence of the #Omicron variant. Within weeks it had been found around the world. As 2021 ended, it was unclear whether #Omicron presented a greater #health threat or would send the global economy into another dive. What was clear is that more than 5 million people globally and 800,000 Americans had died from COVID-19.
He moved quickly upon taking office to fulfill his promise to strengthen relations with America’s allies. He returned the #United States to the #Paris Climate Agreement and the #World Health Organization, renewed New START for five years, sought to #revive the Iran nuclear deal, and ended U.S. support for offensive military operations in Yemen. These moves away from former President #Donald Trump’s America First policies drew applause overseas; #initial polls showed a sharp improvement in the U.S. image abroad.
Now he’s being sent to 22.5 years to prison. That’s what he gets for mindlessly murdering an innocent man as well as attempting to kill a 14-year-old teen back in 2017. He tried to hurt a child as well. Murderers deserve to go to prison. Very simple.
What was the point of this? He was funny to look at…, now we can’t do that anymore. Besides I’m pretty sure this is infringement of freedom of speech, and this is not an issue that I like Donald Trump or not.
Peace should be the future. Otherwise, war would lead us to death of humanity. (Via nuclear and biological weapons), Even though, there’s still going to be a matters in #the world! The United Nations declares 2021 the International Year of Fruits and Vegetables
This is a milestone because of representation. Now young girls and nonwhite individuals can look up to the white house and see it is possible to run a country. she is the first colored and woman vice president in American history. it’s a big milestone for the United States. #Women of color in power is a huge step forward.
Canada’s porn site finally got shut down. We never need porn sites anywhere. They’re like harmful drugs.
This was a historic event we didn’t even see coming. It’s like the best thing a man has done this year in the chronological timeline after the 1st men going to space as non-astronauts (also known as the Inspiration 4) which was the best thing that ever happened this year besides the boost in COVID-19 vaccine productions. A historic event that will be remembered for a lifetime.
There was a noticeable decrease in the environment while he was president, but hopefully now that they’re back in those two organizations.
BLM has reignited and invigorated a vital conversation. And at least it won’t start any wars/drone strikes (looking at you, past 3 or 4 peace prize winners…)
January,Saudi Arabia agreed to reopen its border with Qatar, ending a three-year-long diplomatic crisis. There’s not much else to say about this one, but maybe it will inspire peace between the two countries.
After one and half years, events with lots of people have returned. From outdoor events to indoors & others, we’re seeing a light in a return to normal. We got toward that in the summertime & it’s becoming more normal as time goes on & more people are vaccinated.
On September 15, President Joe Biden, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson jointly #announced a new trilateral security partnership named AUKUS. The most The U.S. pledge to provide #Australia with technology to build eight nuclear-powered (but not nuclear-armed) submarines. The only other country to receive similar access to U.S. #technology is the United Kingdom. The statement announcing the contract justified it as necessary to # “preserve security and stability in the Indo-Pacific.”
The U.S. war in Afghanistan ended as it started twenty years earlier: with the Taliban in power. In 2020, #President Donald Trump struck a #deal with the #Taliban that required withdrawing all U.S. troops by May 1, 2021. Two weeks before that deadline, President Joe Biden ordered that a complete U.S. withdrawal be concluded by no later than September 11, 2021—the twentieth anniversary of the #9/11 attacks. As the withdrawal proceeded, the Afghanistan national army collapsed, and the Taliban overran the country. Kabul fell on August 15, trapping thousands of foreigners in the capital city. The United States launched a massive effort to evacuate stranded Americans by August 31, a deadline set by the Taliban. The U.S. #withdrawal ended on August 30, leaving behind more than one hundred U.S. citizens and as many as 300,000 Afghans who may have qualified for expedited U.S. visas. #Biden called the withdrawal an “extraordinary success.”
In March, Pope Francis met in Iraq with Grand #Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, the first ever meeting between a pope and a grand ayatollah.
In April, a dispute over access to water triggered a clash on the Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan border, leaving 55 people dead and some 50,000 displaced.
In September, the United States dropped a three-year-old request that Canada extradite a senior #Huawei executive, prompting China to release two #Canadian citizens it had arrested when the extradition warrant was first filed back in 2018.
In October, the #International Consortium of Investigative #Journalists released #the Pandora Papers, which contained more than 12 million documents showing how the wealthy and powerful use offshore accounts to evade taxes and hide money.
There are some more activities of year 2021 need to be highlighted. May be next time….
Well known NEWS, All writing is taking from NEWS.
The true meaning of Christmas is giving and sharing the love and reaching out to those who have touched our lives. It is a time to count our blessings and be grateful for them.
I wish all the Christian community an incredible and all the best wishes on this season that fills you with faith, renewed hope, good health, long life, prosperity with peace and joy, that will last a lifetime. Have a blessed time on this religious occasion. Enjoy and Celebrate in a small gathering with precautions and a safe environment
Christmas is celebrated on 25th December every year and is the most religious occasion in Christians as well as non-believers…
It is not just a holiday that is celebrated universally, but also people gather and exchange gifts and enjoy the festivities of this occasion.
For two Millennia, people are religiously attempting its traditions as per their faith in God. Christians celebrate this occasion as the anniversary of the birth of Jesus of Nazareth…who came with the teachings of their religion (Christianity according to the modern BIBLE)
Their popular customs are:
It has been a federal holiday in many countries all over the world especially in the U.S since 1870. It is observed that the Christmas tree and the Santa clause are the two main centers of attention while celebrating Christmas festivities. According to the research Christmas, both are not found in the study of the Bible…Also not supported by the scripture, the however bible condemns the practice of both … The arrival of Jesus is also debatable as per different schools of thought ….
“So, she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place. And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said, ‘I wish I had died before this and had been long forgotten. [Mary was worried that people would think badly of her as she was not married.] Then (baby Jesus) called her from below her, saying, ‘Don’t be sad. Your Lord has provided a stream under you.’ Shake the trunk of the palm-tree towards you, and it will drop on you fresh ripe dates. So, eat and drink and be happy. And if you see any human, then say, ‘Indeed, I have vowed a fast to the Most Merciful, so I will not speak to any human today.’ Then she carried him and brought him to her people. They said, ‘O Mary, indeed you have done a great evil.’ ‘O sister of Aaron, your father was not an evil man, and your mother was not a fornicator.’ So, she pointed to him. They said, ‘How can we speak to a child in the cradle?’ (Jesus) said, ‘Indeed, I am a slave of God. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet And He has made me blessed wherever I may be, and He has enjoined on me prayer and charity as long as I remain alive. And (has made) me kind to my mother and did not make me arrogant or miserable. And peace be upon me the day I was born, and the day I will die, and the day I will be raised alive.’”
Islam places Christ Jesus (PBUH) on the highest pedestal as a prophet of God among the twenty-five prophets named in the Quran. Islam accepts Jesus (PBUH) as the prophet who was born miraculously without human intervention. Islam makes it an article of faith to believe in all the prophets sent down by God and therefore not believing in Christ Jesus (PBUH) as a messenger of God amounts to apostasy in Islam. Therefore, Muslims have as much right as Christians to remember Jesus Christ but not as much to celebrate his birthday more so when it is not celebrated on the correct day.
Against this background, one might expect the Muslims to take part in Christmas celebrations as revering Christ Jesus as do the Christians. However, as I have clearly mentioned earlier, in Islam (and in Christianity) birthdays are not recognized and such celebrations are neither mentioned in the Qur’an nor are they condoned by the Prophet of Islam – Muhammad (PBUH). But the reality is that Christmas is here to stay, and big businesses will ensure that it is celebrated universally and will ensure that it will remain so till eternity.
In the end, research concludes that Christmas is not sanctioned by Scripture. Nor is it admired by our Savior, Jesus Christ.
While holidays will always be entertained in our lives on Earth, I would like you to think upon this of items pertaining to Christmas. Although I don’t expect to change anyone’s mind or beliefs about the realities of Christmas…
The celebration of our Jesus’ birth can (and should) occur every day in our lives and should not be limited to just once (or a few times) a year.
If you decide to continue celebrating Christmas, I believe it is possible to do so if you are truly honoring God through it all; only if you possess a working knowledge of Christmas’ origins and celebrate it with the right frame of mind. Understand, however, that the celebration of Christmas is not a requirement spelled out by the Bible.
I hope that you enjoyed reading this article as much as I enjoyed writing it!
All the best wishes for all,
Happy and safe Holidays to you all, Enjoy!

This post is just for my personal study and opinion, I do not want to hurt feelings of anyone about religion. Many mistakes can be observed in the writing of this post, please just ignore them. Thanks (Alia)
I would like to wish all of us a Happy New Year full of Success, Luck, Peace, Protection, Health, Joy, and Happiness. May all the Blessings and prosperity come to our way.
Personally, I would like to thank all my friends for their continued support throughout in the year 2020. I appreciate their help and efforts in the tough and challenging year of 2020.
The year 2020 was quite different and challenging for many of us, a year of global crisis, an uncertain year, a year never forgettable, a year that snatched the lives, happiness, and freedom. Lockdown and restrictions for people around the world. The Covid-19 caused more than 1.8 million people’s death around the globe. The world has changed in 2020 a lot, especially for those who have lost their loved ones because of the pandemic crisis.
This crisis is still going on. still an unprecedented and challenging time for all of us, Still, we are facing difficulties and challenges till today. We are hoping as to use of vaccinations will overcome this COVID-19 crisis. People are mentally prepared and ready to face unexpected situations and cumulative their immunity system to keep themselves healthy. The challenges and opportunities we will face together in 2021 will require bold action – on health care, the environment, equality, jobs, and much more. Success will require commitment from each one of us. I am sure because of the teamwork and support of each other we will make progress and overcome this crisis.
Even with restrictions and lockdowns, there are still many options for enjoying and celebrating the Year 2021. Yes, a virtual celebration of the year 2021. Also, watching TV and Movies, reading books, cooking, sharing a meal with the family, driving around the neighborhood, taking care of family members, praying for each other, sharing good wishes, spreading love and care to much-needed people. May all we have new hopes, aspirations, and achievements for the coming year.
My best wishes for New Year to all of you!

Now various Coronavirus vaccines are approved.
Canadians received an early Christmas gift on December 23, 2020 as Health Canada declared a new COVID-19 vaccine from U.S. biotech firm Moderna safe for use. PM Justin Trudeau welcomed the move during a news conference in which he also announced that Canada will receive more doses next month of the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine than previously expected. More information about COVID-19 Vaccines are using in Canada
After a long struggle and waiting for CoronaVirus Vaccine, a 90-year-old Margaret Keenan is the first recipient in Britain to receive the Pfizer Vaccine. In Canada, it has been started from December 14, 2020. We hope that it comes to an end as soon as possible with the grace of god and makes our society friendly and happy as of earlier. The Covid-19 is bringing fears and uncertainties in the minds of people, as we are receiving news of a new strain / variant of virus from Britain, all flights for Britain have been cancelled just to prevent people from getting the virus. Till today, total cases of Coronavirus globally are 79,067,331 and total deaths of people are 1,737,074. In the USA total cases are 18,547,045 and total deaths are 327,537. Thousands of people are dying everyday because of COVID – 19.
Second wave of COVID-19 is more deadly and dangerous than the first one. We are still in the danger zone and healthcare professionals are trying to save lives. but let us focus on empowering ourselves and believe in the mercy of god. The White House task force warns states that vaccines will not reduce spread until late spring… COVID patients with symptoms that last month are now called, “long haulers” Many of these people had mild symptoms and were never in the hospital. They are taking care of all precautions. I would not go expecting miracles… no matter what the headlines say. We must remember – There is only ONE person you can truly trust with your health and safety… that is You – Yourself. Here is how I am taking care of myself. Boosting my immune system, taking care of all necessary precautions including, hand washing, face covering by wearing a mask, and keeping 6 feet distance form each other. Not to socialize unnecessarily and isolate yourself when you feel ill, this is important, and it works.
With the beginning of December month in 2019, a news spread all over the world regarding an “unnamed” virus caused due to a person who had a “Bat” soup in the markets of China. Many Individuals claimed that this kind of disease was already listed in some of the books from the past. The virus targets the lungs and makes breathing difficult for a person. Within a month, the cases stood by 44. The media started associating the death of a 61-year-old Covid-19 patient with the seafood market, the primary cause of Coronavirus. Thailand and Japan were next recorded victims of Coronavirus. The Coronavirus did not even show mercy on the United states and the first case in Washington was accorded on Jan 21. In February, The WHO (World Health Organization) named that virus COVID-19. The Global Health Emergency was declared at the end of January when the total number of cases stood nearby 10,000 all over the world. March 11 was the day when Coronavirus spread over all the borders and most of the countries announced the Lockdown. The States came with a plan to stop the spread in three phases. But did that really work? Although, with a plan having astonishing strategy the U.S. recorded 209,199 deaths.
Talking about the measures WHO took for stopping the spread, the number of steps to stop the transmission was introduced. Also, to make people aware WHO observed and listed some symptoms and introduced the weekly report program which gives people updates about every week’s situation around the globe. Currently, WHO is collaborating with numerous researchers and businesses to invent the vaccine at war-footing. WHO is ensuring the people that whenever the appropriate vaccine will be invented, it will be equally distributed to countries regardless of any race, religion and power. More information can be founded at the following link:
https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019.
Reference: Pictures retrieved from free resources.
The Trump government took the quick action in stopping the spread and relief. 2 million testing centers were opened, Lockdown was announced, Huge amount of funds provided and unnecessary visits to doctors were ceased. Moving towards the measures taken by Canada, the Country was completely shut down allowing only necessary visits, small businesses were closed, introduced CERB benefit, huge number of testing centers were allocated, wearing masks was mandatory, invested in factories to meet the demand of sanitizers and masks, borders were closed, each individual entering the country required testing, 14-day quarantine plan came into existence, provided funds to support WHO, 275 millions of dollars were invested in research for medicine, an app was introduced to detect the exposure of Coronavirus around a person.
Let’s Move towards some of the rumours stating this Pandemic as “Plandemic”. Observing the situation, it can be said so. In all the parts of Countries, for common people the lockdown was announced, the religious places were shut down and small business ceased. Was that lockdown just limited to that only? What about the rallies, protests that happened during pandemic? Wasn’t that spreading the Coronavirus? The politicians were seen mocking around about masks and doing rallies. How they are in good condition though? Did they already had any antibiotic which stop covid-19 coming around them? Or is that just their conspiracy to reduce the population and to increase the price for the sake of the economy? People started losing the trust in Government bodies and WHO eventually as there came the anniversary of Coronavirus and still it’s snatching the lives of people at fast pace. Also, some individuals took advantage of the situation and started instigating people against the government with spreading false information. To this, WHO requested people around the world to not to trust that information and kept ensuring that sooner we will have the solution to this pandemic. In fact, In America, the worst happened when President started calling it “ChinaVirus” which caused the rise in racism. It was reported that Trump got virus but within a week of the news he was seen debating for elections which propelled people to stop trusting in the Government.
For now, all we can do is support WHO and follow the guidelines like frequently washing hands, maintaining 6 ft distance, wearing masks, avoid going to crowded places and avoid touching eyes, nose and face too often. This pandemic has separated us from our loved ones and for those who has lost their loved ones they have our sympathy.

Happy Holidays
Wishing you all Best Wishes for every Happiness in the coming year!
Stay home, Stay Healthy and Stay Safe!
From: Alia Nawaz
Year 2020 is a year of global crisis, an uncertain year, a year never forgettable, a year which snatched the lives, happiness, and freedom of most of the people around the world. The Covid-19 caused more than 1.5 million people’s death around the globe. World has changed a lot this year, especially for those who have lost their loved ones because of the pandemic crisis. This crisis is still going on. As year 2020 ends in the days ahead, still an unprecedented and challenging time for all of us, but also a time of incredible resilience as people pull together. People are mentally prepared and ready to face unexpected situations and cumulative their immunity system to keep themselves healthy.
Governments of all countries around the globe are working more rigorously competitively for keeping people safe, healthy, and peaceful at this crucial time. It is the time to be thankful to Scientist, Doctors, Nurses, and other medical, healthcare, and pharmaceutical related staff. England is the first country has started distributing vaccine. Vaccines of this global pandemic (COVID-19) are coming soon in the market for other countries. May Allah (God) keep us safe and healthy. انشاء اللہ.
Sense of positivity is still there in the year of 2020, a 103-year-old woman won her battle against Coronavirus. This year made people realize the importance of families. Instead of Golf, Baseball, Cricket and Hockey, People found enjoyment in playing Ludo King, Puzzles and Chess with their family members. Instead of attending parties in the restaurants, People found attending parties over zoom and teams to be exciting too. For some people it is the time for sharpening the skills and enhancing their knowledge. Most of the people taking rest and spend time with their families.
Here are some more remarkable bad incidents. The year 2020 is shaking the walls of Royal Place in England when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decide to step back as Royals and live the life of a common people. People all over the world were not over with the celebrations of new year when they heard the ear blasting news of Ukrainian Plane Crash costing the lives of 176 people. The fires in Australia burnt millions of acres of land resulting in loss of 3,000 homes, making species extinct and continuous smoke from fire crossed borders. The Covid-19 then shifted to year 2020 having major impact around all the borders. The ears which were bearing the weight of earrings, spectacles and headphones now suppose to manage masks too. Welcoming People turned to avoid people from 6 feet. The on-campus classes now went to virtual. The tables in Cafes, Hotels and Restaurants are now covered with tapes saying “Sorry, Dine-in is closed”. The birthday parties, marriages and anniversaries are now to be joined by no more than ten people just giving disheartening to people. Individuals found time to sharpen their skills like cooking, gardening, sewing and other creativity. The Scientists are struggling to find the Vaccine and somehow, it is questioning their abilities. In some of the regions, people do not even get to see the face of their loved ones for the last time. Then comes another thing: Racism began among Chinese people in America blaming them for Coronavirus, renaming it to “The Chinese Virus”. On Jan 26, the news of the death of NBA legend Kobe Bryant left every basketball lover in shock and grief. At the end of January, the United Kingdom withdrew from European Union. On March 10, Italy became the first country to announce the lockdown closing the borders. The next day, WHO declares Covid-19 disease as Pandemic. Then came the bad news for all sports lovers, the Summer Olympics were delayed till 2021. On 15th of March, Nigeria faced an explosion of gas which cost 15 lives. Then came a point when people started losing trust in Police Officers after news crashed about George Floyd’s killing caused by Police. The world was full of enthusiasm and relief when the rumor about the death of Kim Jong Un spread. The famous actor Chadwick Boseman ends his life Journey after continuous fight of 4 years against Cancer. The Second woman ever appointed at the high court died on Sept 18. On Oct 2nd, the President who initiated racism on behalf of Coronavirus got infected from the same virus. Another Celebrity died of Cancer on Oct 6 named Eddie Van Halen. On Halloween day, the streets of Quebec were filled with fear when a man dressed in a Halloween costume with Japanese sword stabbed two people to death. On November 11, Joe Biden was announced as Next President of States leaving Trump and his lovers in grief.
The Remembrance Day – the day to remember the soldiers who sacrificed their lives during war is celebrated around the world on 11th November. It all started in 1919, when King George V asked people to remember the loved ones, we lost during the First World War while fighting. In England, it is celebrated with huge enthusiasm. Usually, the members of the Royal Family and politicians of England gather at Whitehall situated in London for the memorial service. All the individuals hold the silence for two minutes to remember the soldiers who lost lives for their peace. Apart from this, people wear a red colored poppy to give them a tribute and out of respect. The poppy was introduced by a charity which was formed by Veterans of World War one. Some people think the poppy is just a symbol of death and war due to its red color. Also, some people do not prefer to wear the poppy as they think it is something related to politics. In Canada, it is also known as Armistice Day. Also, two weeks ahead of 11th November, the buses in Canada display the slogan “Lest We Forget” for Reminders to remember the soldiers.
Celebrating Remembrance Day is important as the Army is the backbone and a sole protector of each country. Since the past, there have been a lot of instances when armed forces lost their lives just to protect the country’s people. It is their dedication, passion and love for the country due to which we are safely roaming and spending our lives on our own terms. During their duty, they are always on the edge to die. Some soldiers protect our country by staying in regions where they do not have enough oxygen to breathe, food to eat and quite cold temperature. They are doing a lot to let us breathe and we can not thank them enough for that but still we can at least have a day to remember them.
This year due to coronavirus, the excitement is not observed on the faces of people and celebrations are hugely affected. Due to the restrictions from the authorities from every country, people can not get together for holding two-minute silence. Most importantly, the poppy this year will be digital too. Although the times are hard, still for the sake of our country’s army and their sacrifices, we can hold a two-minute silence at our respective homes. We Salute to the army as they protect us by living far away from their family and in the area where danger always lurks. Would you like to donate for them, please provide your donation here. Thanks.

Mubarak to all Muslims for the celebration of birthday of holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad SAW (PBUH). Muhammad is the prophet and founder of Islam, Great leader, Philosopher, Prophet (c. 570–632)
I am very thankful to the government of Pakistan has announced to celebrate this occasion as an official event also encouraging to the Pakistani PM for his two new important official announcements during his speech in Eid Miladun Nabi conference.
The day dawned with gun salutes and with the offering of special prayers for the unity of Muslim Ummah, progress and prosperity of the country. Private and government buildings, mosques and shrines, houses, all city and country have already been illuminated to commemorate the Day. Hundreds of Mehafil-e-Milad and ceremonies are being organised by different religious, social, academic organisations besides, holding processions, rallies in all cities, towns and villages of the country. Religious scholars delivered speeches in mosques and at different venues to highlighted different aspects of the life of Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW). founder of Islam.
We all Muslims are followers of our Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad SAW. We respect our all prophets and our religion. Actually, we respect all religions, that’s why we don’t expect any bad word or any kind of unsuitable activities against our prophets and religion. As i am residing in Canada Toronto. Here we have all kinds of different religions and believe. We usually discuss different topics about religion. Try to understand the differences, thoughts and clarification among religions. We feel satisfaction when we explain our religion Islam to non-Muslims and answer their questions. We still work together respectfully.
To be religious is the best thing, but this is not enough; we need to have more humanity and higher respect and value of human. We need to make significant changes in our lives. We should have more tolerance, brotherhood, respect, high values of life, positive attitude, unity and peace among all, especially in Millat-e-Islamia and among Muslim Ummah.
The Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad SAW’s the unrivaled benefactor of humanity, messenger of Almighty Allah and the flag bearer of the great religion of Islam, We all Muslims must follow his great, exemplary and extraordinary life everyday as much as possible.
Daughter of Islam
We Pakistanis are celebrating the 71st Independence Day of Pakistan in Pakistan and everywhere in the World. Celebrating with the message of freedom and peace to the World.
I remember my last year 14 August Independence Day post on Facebook. I was so desperately praying for the betterment of Pakistan’s internal and external situation. Now in one year, I can see changes and hope in the future Allah bless Pakistan more with integrity, stability, prosperity, and peace. I want to see corruption-free, tension-free, respectful, peaceful Pakistan on World Stage. (Umeed Salamti Eeman, Humara Pakistan).
On this occasion, I also pay honor to people who devoted their lives to Pakistan’s freedom movement and made sacrifices to attain Pakistan’s independence.
Now, the new government is taking the oath, I congratulate Mr. IMRAN KHAN to become the new Prime Minister of Pakistan. He worked hard for getting this position. He is a real patriotic Pakistani. Nowadays, Pakistan is facing many challenges and problems. IMRAN’s government has to solve all problems conscientiously. I believe IMRAN has the ability to overcome all problems of Pakistan and fulfill his responsibilities as Prime Minister; He has to choose trustworthy, intelligent, educated, experienced, and right people for the right ministry. He needs to select a very competent team in government, in advisory groups, or in the secretariat level.
We have a lot of hopes for this new Pakistan or a new chapter of Pakistan. In spite of all the trials & tribulations, I am confident that one day my mother country will emerge with flying colors!
I Love my homeland, LONG LIVE PAKISTAN, PAKISTAN ZINDABAD
May Allah Bless Our Pakistan always!
The Islamic Republic of Pakistan (اِسلامی جمہوریہ پاكِستان )

Lot of respect to the Pakistan Army and all institutions for making our country more stable and peaceful-Thanks

Very busy days of first half of year 2018, could not get any free time to post on any occasion. Now ready to take on the second half of this year.
December 31, 2017, today is the 17th anniversary of my journey from Pakistan to Canada, (from Eastern country to Western Country). I moved to Canada with my family on December 31st 1999. We arrived at 8:00 PM in Canada; I was so tired and exhausted because of very long hour’s flight, so went to sleep early and woke up by feeling sunlight on my face directly. It was the first day of January 2000 and my very first day in Canada. So, I started my new life in Canada from millennium year.
I was qualified for Canadian immigration on the basis of my education, job experience, scientific skills and expertise, and on running business. After few years I received Canadian citizenship as per Canadian rules. I have visited so many countries before I came to Canada; my education is from Eastern, Western and European countries, which was helpful for settling in Canada, but I had to evaluate my previous educational degrees from Canadian University, also received more educational degrees, diploma and certificates from Canadians institutions.
Canada is very peaceful, beautiful, demanding and challenging country. Canadians are smart, well-mannered, courteous, graceful and helpful people. As a new comer in Canada I had to work hard and diligently to prove ourselves that Pakistani people are able to live in any part of the world and can make space for ourselves in a respectful manner and style. So I did it. In Canada, I have worked a lot in various categories: such as in education, in health care, in business, some work in leadership and politics, and completed a lot of constructive projects successfully.
I am admiring Canadian people so much; it doesn’t mean that other country’s people are not good. They are always very nice with me except few. I should mention that Pakistani people have uncountable qualities. I have been living in Canada since 18 years, also spent a lot of time in various Eastern and Western countries. Despite of our culture, life style and religious differences we are friend of each other, we respect and help each other. My real focus is on country policies, regulatory system, economy, business, education and health care. We can contribute to build better country!
Wishing you and your family a Safe and Happy Holiday Season and a Happy New Year filled with joy and prosperity! You have much joy, advancement and success in the year to come. Happy New Year 2018!
My best wishes for the all years ahead, May we join together in this time of returning light to envision peace on earth and a more enlightened future for humanity!
May there be peace on Earth. Every one of us needs to contribute something for this great purpose, especially world leaders.
So what is a new promise and intention for year 2018! Work Hard and Work Smart to make our city, our country and our World a better place.

We are very fortunate people that have a celebration time; in celebration activities we must remember our responsibilities, do whatever you can to help others. Solve problems for betterment of life.
All World leaders (specially All Muslims’ Countries leaders) should be united for solving several global Muslims problems such as Palestine, Kashmir, Rohingya, and many more…

At this occasion Pakistani should remember, Message and Vision of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Unity, Faith, Discipline

Muslims status in the World:
There is a lot going on in the World against Muslims. Nowadays unfortunately, Muslims are facing false propaganda about Islam and lot more… What should Muslims do under this situation? What we will do if Muslims are fighting and killing Muslims? First of all, all Muslims should be united; our complaints are not valid if Muslims are not united.
Muslims should not be divided in different religious groups. All Muslims believe in Allah and his holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and follow Qur’an.
Prophet’s Muhammad (PBUH) and his life is an example for all Muslims. Follow his life, follow his messages; Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the last messenger of Allah. This is very true.
There are some more points to discuss about Muslims status in the World, but not at this very religious and happy occasion.
Some photographs of Prophet’s Muhammad (PBUH) old house in Mecca, using it as a library now.
It is not too late for creating all Muslims Countries Alliance for this great cause.
Since now, we all know that what is going on with Rohingya’s Muslims. In recent months, thousands and thousands of Rohingya have fled to Bangladesh amid a military crackdown on insurgents in Myanmar’s western Rakhine state. There are lot of horrifying stories of rapes, killings and house burnings are coming through media. Rohingya’s are suffering “mass atrocities” perpetrated by security forces in the northern part of Rakhine state.
I am not talking this matter on the basis of religion. Situation of Rohingya’s Muslims need to be considered on Humanitarian basis. They are all human being; they are all rejected by the country they call home and unwanted by its neighbours. Bangladesh is not accepting them. Thousands of people have already been departed. Remaining Rohingya’s Muslims are impoverished, in a very bad condition, no home, no shelter, no food, no clothing, virtually they are stateless.
Aung San Suu Kyi, Nobel peace laureate and political leader, her failure to defend the Rohingya is extremely disappointing. There are many investigations has been done, but all hopeless.
All world’s leaders and Humanitarian activist organizations are helping to some extent, but this support is not enough. We really need to do more for Rohingya’s Muslims. I am in Canada, and know Canadian government has donated by 12.1 Million dollars (read more); many organizations are working very well privately. I know about the help of Turkish govt. also few more Muslims countries, but I don’t know about Pakistani government, what’s the planning about Rohingya’s Muslims help.
This is very tough and uncomfortable time for Rohingya’s Muslims. At least all Muslims Countries need to be united on one platform for help and solve Rohingya’s Muslims problems. I hope my voice will be heard and will achieve positive response from all Muslims world leaders that they will be together and will take action and make serious decisions for this purpose. I also hope Pakistan will lead all countries. Ameen.
I stopped posting anything on my website because of a controversial quote that was posted last month. It was discussed and criticized a lot in public, even on government level. I have received several emails, so I need to explain my point of views about this quote.
Quote: “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” —John Quincy Adams
This is very wise saying and it is from famous world leader.
My interpretations of this quote:
If I take it personally, for me to do more is a very optimistic sign, more expectation based on my capability. I do not feel any insult for doing more. There is no ego for doing more, I should be grateful to God that I possess power and ability to do more, that is why people are asking me for the same because they know that I can do more. (We must have right direction to do more for completing our plans and missions, otherwise we will not achieve positive results.
If you are doing more, you are doing for your Yourself, for better Life, for the best Leadership, for your Family, for betterment of your Kids’ future, for better Business, for better City, for better Nation, for better Country and for better World. This quote realizes your capability that how you can become more, how you can take people with you, how your leadership qualities make you popular that everyone follows you, you can make crowd around you. How you can change or make this world a better place for everyone. Alia
I think this is more than enough to write about it.

Do It once and Do It Right, this wording was criticized a lot.
It is the best way to complete work in this manner: ‘Do It once and Do It Right’
But it is not possible everywhere, It does not fit in all situations.
This is my message for those who try to discourage and criticize innocent people without any purpose. Please do not do it again. You know that whom I am talking to…. Thanks, Alia
