Dear
Readers,
Assalam
Alaikum.
This
month of July has been especially lucky for us, for our Bakhabar, we
feel proud to be presenting the world famous broadcaster and writer of
several books, Raza Ali Abidi of BBC. The truly one and
only, our BBC wale Abidi Bhai. Many of us have grown up listening to
his velvety and inimitable voice floating from the radio in those
blissful pre-TV days , for me , he has been special , as his voice
has shaped my coherence , all along the journey of life. He was
kind enough to send us his still unpublished paper which he read in
Karachi, last month. In this fine essay, he marks out the absurdities
that have sneaked in Urdu of our times. It’s indeed his job alone to
enlighten us about it in his most unique and novel way. Our other two
essays too are from enlightened pens. Ms. Abida Rehmani has worked as a
translator/interpreter since last many years and she is an expert in
seven languages! Read her in While on Facebook you never face a
book, a penetrating analysis of ‘our’ perennial need to connect with
‘others’ and how if not kept under control , it can fetch disastrous
results. Another piece de resistance is also about Facebook, Facebook
IPO, to be precise, termed as a “100 Billion Dollar: Crime against
Humanity”. I feel truly honored to tell you about its writer, he is a
fabulous person, crowned recently among the twenty most influential
people in the world of Islamic finance, he is ,Dr.Mansoor
Durrani, CEO, NCB, Jeddah and a writer in his own league on various
themes related to finance and banking but with a close perspective of
Islam. Here he pricks the balloon of Facebook IPO and shows us how it
has succeeded in making a fool of the people who think it very
fashionable to be a Facebookian! He is among that rare species who
proudly declare, Trust me, I am not on FB! It’s really a fabulous read.
Then this month we also have Aleem Khan Falaki Sahab, the crusader
against the malaise of dowry and sister Ambreen Juvale of
IRF,Mumbai. Their write ups make us muse about the abuse! We at
Bakhabar, thank all these wonderful people for sharing with us their
noble notions.
Stevenson
said that those who did not read Hazlitt’s beautiful essay, On Going a
Journey, should be levied a tax. I would say, those who do not read
Bakhabar, July issue, too should be levied a tax and more so if they do
not read our next August issue which will be a special, ‘Independence
Special’, inshaAllah
Best wishes for the holy month of Ramdan!
Stay cool!
