10/8

On 10 October people of Asia experienced the worst earthquake in centuries. Buildings collapsed, people died and the worst happened. But in the days to follow we saw the spirit of the people. Who said we are careless, we dont have any humanity left in us, go to PAF museum and find out. The sight there is enough to make you cry. The people of Pakistan and specially of Karachi have come out to help the victims with everything they have got. You can see relief camps everywhere, people are collecting food, clothes and medical supplies so that it can be sent to the victims.
On one side you see this great picture of Pakistanis but wait till you see the other side of the picture.
  • The prices of coffin cloth went up from 150 to 1100 after the quake.

  • People were found selling the stuff collected for the victims.

  • The stuff collected for the victims was found to be stored in different warehouses for selling.


I ask you that wasn't the quake enough. People are saying that it was Aazaab from Allah, I would say that it was just a warning. I think it is time we realized what we are doing and mend our ways before it is too late. Already there are rumours that Karachi is under the threat of a Tsunami.

Let us pray that this tough time passes away quickly, let us pray for forgiveness and let us pray that may Allah protect us from all evil. (ameen)
