Survival Adventure

It was 10th of May 2021 27th night of Ramzan (Shabe Qadar). My father, cousin and two uncles went to Amna Mosque in which its Imam/Khateeb Mutfi Hanif Qureshi was giving his speech to the over crowded 3 story building of mosque.

After offering Salat-o-Tasbeeh prayer, we came home before Sehri. I was so sleepy that I slept after Fajar prayer in five minutes. In the morning when I was finishing my remaining school home work my parents were talking something about picnic.

Just then my mother started to prepare Aftari for the picnic. She said to plan at 4 o’clock. She said so because if we plan at 4:00 pm we will get ready 30 minutes before of this time. My mother begged my father not to scold her because of disposable plastic glasses.

When we got out my mom had packed a lot of pakoras to give to someone poor. When my mother gave pakoras to a poor man with a stall beside the road, my father said that you gave him very few pakoras and said for dua.

Just after that, we entered Islamabad. Islamabad can be recognized by the greenery, fresh air, wide and open roads, no pollution, obeying of rules, forests around the road and no traffic. When a person travels in Islamabad, his car doesn’t stops, just like on motorway. There are few small cars in Islamabad or the rest would be from Rawalpindi.

As we were traveling as fast as an eagle, our car windows were down and the cold fresh air rushing towards our lungs. We turned our car towards Rose Garden just then
