Yesterday, March 18th, was the first death anniversary of the Pakistani falcon MM Alam !! He was a true ace, a national hero, globally respected and a symbol of love for Pak Sarzameen and Ummat e Rasul (sm) ! By ethnicity, he was a Bihari/bengali who opted to stay in Medina e Sani after 1971 and then took part in Afghan Jihad to defend this Pak Sarzameen from another dimension. Alhamdolillah, I had a 40 years old association with this Shaheen and he is lovingly mentioned in our Memoirs -- From Indus to Oxus !!

It was Alam's sb's last wish that I translate this book in Urdu also. We started the work immediately and now one year after his passing away into the spiritual realm, we are honored to announce the launch of the Urdu version -- Darya e Sindh sey Darya e Amu tak !!

InshAllah, we will make formal announcement on March 23rd !! a Befitting day for this epic historical and emotional account of an amazing war of freedom, translated on the wishes of MM Alam sahib !!

So fasten your seat belts for an astounding flight roller coaster flight into the melting pot of history. We will announce the launch on March 23rd inshAllah !!!!

Between the English version and the Urdu translation, I lost two great men who had influenced my life, thoughts and passions -- My beloved father and my friend/teacher/elder MM Alam sb. Both had seen the english book and both wanted its Urdu version. Now both would over see it from heavens inshAllah !

Recite Fatiha for Abba Jan and Alam sb please. Barak Allah feek ! I miss them so much today :-(

Pakistan must be jealously guarded even today. Got to keep the flag high. The battle is raging and we got to do the duty at all costs.

 

Left Abba jan in the mercy of Allah (swt) today. One of the most difficult moments in my life to let go of someone so close, so passionate. Nothing prepares you for the moment when you have to bury your parents or children ! But this is a duty which every Muslims must do with dignity, sabr and Shukar !

As my mujahida mother, he too had the greatest influence in making what I am today. He taught me adab e Rasul (sm), hammered into the souls of his children that NEVER to eat Haram rizq and kept reminding me that we will have to fight a final battle with India to defend this Pak Sarzameen. I am sure he would be on duty on the "other side" as well while we do on "this side".

He was from the generation which made Pakistan and then joined army to defend it jealously on the battle field as well. I grew up on his stories of the battle fields and he himself was witness to so many miracles during these battles. This Pakistan is sacred, my parents had always taught us.

Our duty is not done yet. Pakistan must be jealously guarded even today. While I feel the excruciating pain within, there is no time to mourn a soldier who has fallen in the battle. Got to keep the flag high. The battle is raging and we got to do the duty at all costs.

InshAllah, we will be on duty without delay. May Allah raise his Darjaat even higher. May Allah give us istiqamat to do the duty with courage and dignity. May Allah bless Ummat e Rasul (sm) and Medina e Sani.

Recite Fatiha please.

Abba Jan, passed away into the rehmat of Allah (swt). An honorable life comes to a dignified close. Innalillahe inna ilehe rajeoon…

Pl recite Fatiha..

Abba Jan, passed away into the rehmat of Allah (swt). An honorable life comes to a dignified close.

Lt Col Zaman Hamid from 1st PMA, veteran of 2 wars as gunner officer fighting the Mushriks at Sialkot front, served in 14 field and 41 HAA. A Ghazi, a Mujahid, was always eager to fight the final battle with India. A Syed, from the family of Hazrat Ibraheem Malik Bbiya, the great great grand son of Hazrat Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani and the General who captured India with Muslims armies in early times. Attacking and capturing India is on our blood, alhamdolillah !

My mentor, my friend, my dad. Would miss him dearly but for now leave him in the mercy of Allah (swt), to join him later as Allah wills.

Innalillahe inna ilehe rajeoon…

Pl remember us and all the Ummah of Sayyadi Rasul Allah (sm) in your dua.



ZH and family.
