Last year, at this time...

I was sitting alone in my 6 feet by 9 feet solitary confinement cell. I only had a vague idea of time, day or date for the room is totally sealed, without any sunlight, without any fresh air and totally sound proof... where even the sound of azaan or guards could not come... powerful lights and noisy air conditioner kept you awake all the time.. ! Then the slit in the steel door opened and the guard pushed some food and growled in a harsh tone... "Sahoor, Sahoor"... !

Only then I realized that Ramazan had begun... !!

It had been 15 days since I was kidnapped illegally and un Islamically from Masjid e Nabwi Shareef by Saudi Intelligence when I had gone there for Umra with my wife. Now locked up in the tiny grave like cell, I was beginning my Ramazan alone while my wife waited for me in our hotel in Medina.

It was the most testing Ramazan of our lives... ! I had no idea of Salat timings, I could not pray Jamaat, could not pray Juma, could not even know if it is Iftar time or Sehri... ! Once, I did my iftar at Isha time because I was not told that Iftar time has come.....I would spread my few dates and soup with dry bread on the floor and then do my iftar with shukar and sabr, alhamdolillah... but present in thought with my wife who would also be sitting alone at Darbar e Nabwi, doing her iftar with Sayyadi Rasul Allah (sm).

Once the entire prison went hungry without dinner all night because the King was visiting the Medina airport and all roads were blocked and no food could be delivered to Jail. No apology was offered by the jail staff, who reminded me of angels of hell, without mercy, harsh, brutal and cruel..

Today, sitting in my home with family in the protection and blessings of our home, my thoughts are with thousands of fellow prisoners who are locked up in those jails illegally, immorally and Un-Islamically, just as I was.

I was a guest of Rasul Allah (sm). Even if I was an enemy, Saudis had NO right to arrest me or hundreds like me who are arrested while they come for Hajj or Umra. This is tally haram and Gustakhi in the darbaar of Rasul Allah (sm) to humiliate, torture and insult the guests of Sayyadi like this.

Today, when I see that many consider Saudi arabia to be an Islamic country, I hear the screams of innocent good Muslims locked up in Saudi jails for years after years without any justice or mercy... The zulm that I have seen in Saudi jails would shake the throne of Allah (swt).... ! This zulm cannot go on....

When I came back to Pakistan, I wrote a letter to Saudi embassy in Pakistan and demanded a formal apology and payment of Diyat for the crimes they committed against me. As usual, they never replied.... But now I have filed a case in the court of Allah (swt) and He is the best of the judges, best of the lawyers...

Ramazan Mubarak to you all ! May Allah have mercy upon the Ummah, which is facing its toughest test since the Crusades and the Mongol invasion and we have NO Salahuddin today... ! You know you live in darkest of times when Khadim ul Haramain shareefain kidnaps the guests of Rasul Allah and is the custodian of most brutal jails in the world...

They say "what does not kill you, only makes you stronger" ! Let us close the ring around the traitors. We have drawn our swords !

They say "what does not kill you, only makes you stronger" !

My four months in maximum security, Guantanamo style prisons of Saudi Arabia was an incredible learning, maturing & spiritually uplifting experience. Locked away in tiny jail cells, under solitary confinement, thousands of miles away from home, family and friends, without any phone call or meeting and not knowing your fate in a charge which carried certain death sentence by beheading. I spent my time in various maximum security jails in Medina, Jeddah, Bureda, Riyadh and then Jeddah again before I flew back to Pakistan.

The feeling was exactly what Yunus (as) must have felt in the stomach of that whale which had swallowed him ! In the darkness of the fish stomach, which power on earth could save Hazrat Yunus ? It was his Tawakkul on Allah (swt) and Sabr that finally brought him out, from a situation which was deathly hopeless.

Jail terms, especially the one I had, are always similar experiences and this is exactly what Allah (swt) taught me -- Tawakkul and Sabr ! You need strongest faith on Allah (swt) that He will never abandon you, will never leave you alone and will never waste you after the enemies had plotted to have me assassinated. I saw literal miracles and divine interventions at places which were equally hopeless as being in the stomach of the whale. Allah (swt) and Sayyadi Rasul Allah (sm) never left this faqeer alone at any moment, alhamdolillah.

The experience taught me one more critical lesson as well. Never forgive the traitors of the Ummah ! I was betrayed by those people who were known enemies but I had forgiven them or ignored them the first time. They took our mercy for them as our weakness and plotted even more sinister games to have me killed. This time, there will be NO mercy for traitors, Munafiqs and Ghaddars.

Alhamdolillah, I have come out stronger, more determined and more in Jalal to destroy the enemies of Pakistan and Ummah. The enemies thought that they can destroy our will, shatter our nerves and break us emotionally but they all failed.

The enemy is within our ranks as well and around us too. They will continue to plot to damage Pakistan and the sacred mission we lead. Their only solution is sword and now our blades will deal with them!

Pak army is eliminating the militant threat. InshAllah, soon, you will see Pak army eliminating the political and economic terrorists as well. These same people were behind the plot to have me killed in Saudi Arabia. They plotted with Indian RAW but Allah is the best of the planners. Now we are back to be their worst nightmare !

If I am not coming on media then it is because I am doing more important duties. There is nothing left to say now. But there is lot left to be done. Our presence on social media is enough for the time being. You will know what needs to be told. Let us close the ring around the traitors. We have drawn our swords !

On my arrest, only the venomous snakes and enemies of Pakistan were happy. Those who love Allah (swt) and Sayyadi Rasul Allah (sm) and Pakistan were truly sad and concerned.

When I was arrested and jailed in Saudi Arabia, Pakistanis all over the world raised their voices in concern and protest. In Greece, the Pakistani community published news in their local Urdu papers and even met the Saudi authorities asking them to release me. Here is one article which was published in Greek Urdu paper and was read by Pakistanis in Greece.

On my arrest, only the venomous snakes and enemies of Pakistan were happy. Those who love Allah (swt) and Sayyadi Rasul Allah (sm) and Pakistan were truly sad and concerned. It was the power of their dua that Allah humiliated the enemies and munafiqeen, alhamdlillah ! Soon inshAllah, I shall name and give pictures of more snakes and traitors who had betrayed Pakistan and were part of this plot with Hindu Mushriks of RAW. This time, these snakes will pay heavily.. the process has already begun..

My beloved soul mate, my wife Tayyaba who lead the rescue to take me out of the Saudi Jai l.... has written her own story.

You all know about my beloved soul mate, my wife Tayyaba who lead the rescue to take me out of the Saudi Jail. Here, for the first time, I share a narration by her. She has written her own story.What she went through when I was in Jail and how she spent her time in Medina Munawwara. I am sure it will make a fascinating read for most of you, inshAllah !.

If my duty is dangerous and difficult, her journey alongside me is no less difficult. There is a reason why Allah chose her to share my life, soul and the mission...alhamdolillah !

Now read...

***************

Assalamoalykum everyone,

Started creating jewellery again last night, after a long break. Was in Madina Munawwara for many months as my husband was held by Saudi Authorities for questioning when we went fo Umrah.
It was an unforgettable experience for the both of us and our entire family and it carved us into even sharper swords of Rasul Allah (SAW) alhamdolillah, and brought the family even closer. It was an immense blessing in disguise which enriched us with Rasul Allah's generous 'Nazr e Karam', and 'Allah's miraculous support' and I believe, it bound us four (Allah SWT, Rasul Allah (SAW), me, & my husband honorable Zaid Hamid) into an unbreakable, invincible team.

Spending so many months so close to Rasul Allah (SAW), spending day and night at the Masjid e Nabavi surrounded by all the blessed Ahl e Bayt and the essence of the Haq, Syyedi Rasul Allah is an experience which is now a whole separate and most exclusive chapter of my life. Although me and my husband live and breathe to serve Syyedi (SAW) and His Ummah and His Pakistan, but there we were nothing but tears and dua at His Darbar.
I was in a hotel next to Masjid e Nabavi while my husband was behind concrete walls miles away from me, but now when we share our memories of this battle and Ibadat which we were put through, we realise we were making same duas, had the same routine of Ibadat, same roller coaster ride of emotions and traumas, faith and heart breaks. There was not a moment that Allah Janu aur Syyedi Rasul Allah (SAW) left us alone. Throughout this blessed test I felt they were both holding each of my hand, taking care of my husband like a mother cares for his infant helpless child.
I swear we have never felt so much love, care and Karam of Seyydi Rasul Allah SAW, like we did during this whole time, and, we have never felt so many forces deployed by Allah Tala to guard, help and rescue us, and more than that, make us pass this test with flying colours.

I would like to thank everyone who prayed for us and most of all I would like to thank our enemies who bought hell to get us even closer to Allah and Syyedi SAW, who raised our stature even higher in the eyes of Patriots and truth lovers, forged us husband and wife into 'Saifullah', and sifted out our friends from foes.
Now I have two homes, one Pakistan, and the other is Masjid e Nabavi, where Syyedi (SAW) kept me safe in his 'Kamli' for so many months. We love you Allah janu and Syyedi (SAW) and we promise we will never abandon your mission till 'Itmam e Noor' InshaAllah.

Long Live our baby "Pakistan"
:-)

Mrs. Tayyaba Zaid

My coming out from the jail is a miracle which is still haunting the enemies and they remain in denial.

My coming out from the jail is a miracle which is still haunting the enemies and they remain in denial. The fact that I have not made any media appearance since my return also continue to confuse them :-)

This also shows the power of media to spread lies. Even at the Qatar airport, when a group of Pakistani saw me in front of them, one of them said that he has confirmed news that I have been killed..lol.

sharing with you a twitter conversation I had yesterday. It is amusing to see how panicked and confused they have become since the news of my arrival has become their nightmare. Enjoy.. :))

Test and trial by sword -- a special gift from Allah (swt).

When I was in Jail, enemies celebrated their "victory", assuming that they have finally gotten rid of their nightmare ! But the losers did not know that for true believers and Momineen, every calamity and trial by fire is a blessing from Allah (swt) to purify them and to strengthen them for more difficult and profound duties ahead. This is how Allah tests, strengthens and rewards His own friends and servants. Alhamdolillah !!

There is no doubt that these 4 months were difficult but there is also no doubt that this time was the most spiritually charged and enlightening period of my life also. The rewards from Allah (swt) far exceed the pain and the agony of this test.

Shukar Alhamdolillah, alf alf Marra ....

Allah's mercy is NEVER far from His slaves.... Now let the enemies cry....

I was arrested by Saudis. Indians wanted me extradited. Pak government wanted me to stay in jail forever. The odds were that I would stay in jail for decades... But then Allah had His own plans...!

Now the enemies should realize that their every attack has become a blessing for us and for our mission and we have emerged more stronger, more loved, more popular than before... !! Alhamdolillah !

In the darkest of times in dungeons and cells, locked in isolation, it was the story of Yusuf (as) which kept my spirits alive !! Allah's mercy is NEVER far from His slaves....

Now let the enemies cry....
