The route that some take











I have never been a fan of Junaid Jamshed. In fact Dil Dil Pakistan is the only song that I ever liked & I’ve never been interested in Pakistani music as such.

Ever since JJ has become maulvi type, I’ve noticed that countless folks have problem with this. I think it’s a personal choice. People should mind their own business, but I’ve even heard this singer saying on TV that he would never choose the path taken by JJ. That’s not just ridiculous but also immature on the part of someone to say it on TV. Be honest, if you have the charm to be one. And then no one is asking you to choose the path of a clergy.

Recently JJ has been giving this public service message on Lays. That PSM has been taken by many as an endorsement. I even went through certain comments where my sister writes & I was like what’s the big deal about it? It has been alleged that Lays is not halal. Only a religious scholar or some genuinely knowledgeable person could tell you whether a thing is haram or halal. Fine. I admit the style of JJ is a bit funny, but the message was clear unless you have serious problem with JJ or Lays.

I know 2 ladies who were ultra mod but now they observe pardah & they have changed a lot. In common language, they have become maulanas. Mostly people are shocked out of their wits. Everyone one was like…how could this happen? Such out people can never become religious. People I know also say that they don’t know what others mean by the word religious. One word can have thousand definitions as thousands of people define it in different ways. To my mind, a person who is doing a noble work is also religious. Even a person who prays just 1 time can be religious in the eyes of God. We can’t say anything on it.

“The Lord knows very well who goes astray from His path; He knows very well the right-guided.”

The Holy Quran

“Are the blind & the seeing man equal? Will you not reflect?”

The Holy Quran

That’s a very important question. We need to think about it rather than throwing dirt on others. Moreover, it has been written in the Quran a number of times that God does not guide the people of the ungodly. And God also doesn’t guide the unbelievers either. God shows the path to anyone He wants to.

“To God belong the East & the West;
He guides whomsoever He will to a straight path.”

The Holy Quran
