I observed the moon very carefully on the evenings (early nights) of 25th and 26th September 2009. According to Mullah Popalzai 7th of Shawwal should have fallen on the 25th and according to Mufti Sahib it was to be on the 26th. Click here to read Full Article

In one of his recent Press Conferences Mian Sahi Click here to read Full Article

Ayub Khan nearly lost his rule for raising sugar price by merely four annas a kilo. The present rulers must be having a magic wand that not a soul stirs when the price has been increased from Rs. 37 to Rs. 52 !! Oh, blimey, I forgot it is all due to the blessings of Ramadan on the rulers of the Isl Click here to read Full Article

Hajj by the Debtor by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 11/Aug/2009 Views:1874 Replies:0 
An otherwise innocent looking but quite alarming a headline on the back page of daily "Pakistan Observer" August 10th, 2009 reading, "Every Pakistani bears Rs. 24,412 debt" made me think if it was in order for a person under debt to perform Hajj? What I understood about Hajj is that it is a Fard (b Click here to read Full Article
