Please, you people of the earth

This poem of Maulana Hali has great meaning and truth in it.

Please, you people of the earth

God will be merciful on the Throne

As expected, after the publication of the previous column titled “Help Seema”, this time too, it got a very good response. Thanks to God, thanks to Express, Seema’s children also wore new clothes on Eid, bought new shoes, the children’s school bags were torn in three years, they bought school bags at the first opportunity and the rest of the money was carefully saved. Kept in the bank.

I am personally grateful to all those ladies and gentlemen who read my column and sent money to Seema. Some sent the money to Ghazala Saeed’s bank account, some sent the money to Seema through “Easy Paisa” and the majority also informed me on my email. Money spent in the way of Allah opens closed doors for you.

Proud are the people who quietly performed their duty, those who sent money from Australia, I pray for their health, God bless them. Seema also prays in every prayer for all those people who brought her out of the mire of misery and poverty.

But some e-mails came to me which surprised and amazed me and Seema. See drop by drop becomes a river. A lady who sews sent one thousand rupees, another sent fifteen hundred. His sentiments are worthy of respect, but I must mention one post. First, I received a long text on my e-mail, which went something like this:

“You sure Seema is really needy? Here, thousands of needy people are scattered on Hargali, neighborhood and streets. Here people are afraid to work hard, I am a businessman and I have a company, I also employ people, I also give them pension, I also employ people on daily wages during Eid days.

He had written a lot more, which was very slow, when I replied to him by email and wrote, “This is very good, I am sending Seema’s husband to you, very honest.” And they are hard working people, tell me what salary will you give them?” Just after that there is silence from their side.

Someone emailed and asked, “Do I know Seema personally?” My answer was yes. When I found out, I did my own research and when I was satisfied, I picked up the pen.

Apart from these well-wishers, Seema also received calls that were very rude. Seema kicked him well. Those who helped included people from Muzaffarabad, Multan, Faisalabad and Karachi. I also received two e-mails in which I was asked for time to meet and the address of the house. One was an engineer living in Larkana. He was planning to come to Karachi during the Eid holidays. He wanted to meet me first. Willing to think of Seema’s help later. Obviously, how could such an email be answered? A call came to Seema from Quetta, as soon as she started talking rudely and rudely, Seema handed over the phone to her husband. You can better understand what happened next.

Islam has condemned donkey-riding, but since Ramadan, caravans of donkey-riders camp in Karachi with entire families from Saraiki Patti, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and interior Sindh. Today, it is impossible to walk in Karachi, every two steps a beggar man or woman is seen begging with a child on their shoulders.

It is heard that the child is also taken on rent for five hundred rupees a day, now these beggars camp near mosques. Some donkeys sit with a drug applied to their shins, which turns their legs into elephant legs. This disease is called “fail foot”, but these beggars who apply medicine to make their legs fat, after a few hours this swelling disappears.

This time there were three emails in which the sender requested for help, one was from Multan, one was from Nawab Shah and the third was from Karachi. As soon as I read them I realized that this is all a fraud, I don’t know what I can do for them. How can anyone be sure without doing research?

I felt sad after reading the mails of the people, as soon as the new government came, the storm of inflation has come. Gas is not coming but the bill is coming for many hundreds. The luxury of the rulers is at the peak, someone needs crores for a car to become “Mukhtar Kal” and squeeze the blood of the people. There is promise of more inflation next year. Thefts, robberies are increasing, unemployment is on the rise.

We ourselves are responsible for our own destruction, underestimating and lying has become our national mood. Dishonesty has been strongly warned against in the measure. If you order a liter of milk, it will be less if you measure it. So it is with all things. This is our national mood. What if God is not angry?
