IMRAN KHAN FINALLY WEDS:
IK finally weds and sets some good trends with his marriage. We need to be neutral here. Number one, he married a divorced person, a mother of three children, which is quite noble of him. Number two, he did not go ahead with any lavish function and especially the way the couple spent some time on the Valima day with meals for poor children, though some might challenge the timing of his marriage. Let's hope the affluent segment in Pakistan will also learn a few lessons and try to cut down costs on weddings especially since these are trying times for the whole nation. Wedding and Valima functions could very well be celebrated in Pakistan with friends and relatives being invited but their scale needs to be adjusted.

"KILLING OF FRENCH ARTISTS" - with some alterations - Posted at: http://together-we-rise.blogspot.com/2015/01/killing-of-french-artists.html
TWO DIFFERENT SITUATIONS
In Pakistan, if someone from the minorities commits blasphemy, either consciously or subconsciously, then he/she should be tried in a court and given fair hearing. There is always a chance that innocent Non-Muslims could be framed by others in such a case in Pakistan and we need to be extra careful about such cases. However what excuse could there be for educated people in the West who know very well about the place our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) occupies in our hearts and still proceed ahead with deliberate art competitions or publications to do blasphemy against his persona? Did they not learn what Muslims feel about their "Freedom of Expression" acts especially after 2007 when Denmark published blasphemous cartoons against Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) with other countries also following? The West prides itself about its civility and sophistication, and yet they fail to conform to the very basics of human ethics with such acts.
