(Literature) - 199th birth-anniversary of Emily Bronte



199th birth-anniversary of Emily Bronte

Today is the 199th anniversary of the birth of Emily Bronte. I am sharing this post because compared to most of today's novels, the classics like written by Emily Bronte carried a certain purity even though they revolved around themes of love and romance.

Emily Brontë was born in Thornton, West Riding of Yorkshire, England on this day in 1818.

“Be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I can not live without my life! I can not live without my soul!”


―from WUTHERING HEIGHTS (1847)

Perhaps the most haunting and tormented love story ever written, WUTHERING HEIGHTS is the tale of the troubled orphan Heathcliff and his doomed love for Catherine Earnsha Published in 1847, the year before Emily Bronte’s death at the age of thirty, WUTHERING HEIGHTS has proved to be one of the nineteenth century’s most popular yet disturbing masterpieces. The windswept moors are the unforgettable setting of this tale of the love between the foundling Heathcliff and his wealthy benefactor’s daughter, Catherine. Through Catherine’s betrayal of Heathcliff and his bitter vengeance, their mythic passion haunts the next generation even after their deaths. Incorporating elements of many genres—from gothic novels and ghost stories to poetic allegory—and transcending them all, WUTHERING HEIGHTS is a mystifying and powerful tour de force.

Sighting the Messenger ﷺ in dream


Sighting the Messenger ﷺ in dream

My friend went to Madinah and cried all night asking Allah to show him the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, 'I'm not deserved of seeing him but I love him...' he repeated this until he fell asleep and on that night, he saw him in his dreams. ﷺ

تبدیلی آگئی ہے

آج صبح جب میں اٹھا تو ہر چیز بدلی ہوئی نظر آرھی تھی.ایچی سن اور اسلامیہ ھائی سکول کا سلیبس ایک ھو گیا تھا. مسجدیں نمازیوں سے کچھا کھچ بھری ہوئی تھیں. بازار گیا دودھ چار روپے کلو, چینی دو روپے کلو, گھی ڈیڑھ روپے کلو آٹا دس روپے من.

میں نے دوکانداروں سے مہنگائی ختم ھونے کی وجہ پوچھی کہنے لگے ھم سب صادق اور امین ھوگئے ہیں. کیونکہ گاڈ فادر اور سیلین مافیہ گھر جا چکا ھے.

Tough Road Still Ahead




TOUGH ROAD STILL AHEAD

Supreme Court's disqualification of PM Nawaz should be accepted by all Pakistanis in good stride. However, there is no room for celebrations as we still have a tough road ahead of us and need to work on our own selves also.

SOME ADVICE FOR PTI FOLLOWERS - IMRAN HAS ANNOUNCED ANOTHER 'JALSA' ON COMING SUNDAY, SO THIS IS NECESSARY

عمران خان نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وآلَِہ وسلم کی باتیں تو کرتے ہیں لیکن افسوس کہ دھرنوں جلسوں میں خواتین کی رات گئے تک شمولیت اسلام کی رُو سے ناجائز ہے

AND BELOW - TO PTI FOLLOWERS WHO REFUSE TO BOTHER ABOUT GOOD ADVICE AND STUPIDLY BELIEVE IN IMRAN AS A SAVIOUR OF PAKISTAN

PM Nawaz Disqualified but - - -



PM Nawaz Sharif disqualified. However, Imran Khan's way of fighting has been very secular and not according to Islam.

DUA FOR TODAY

اللہ تعالٰی پاکستان کیلئے سب سے بہتر چیز عطا کرے - مدینہ ثانی کو ترقی و کامرانی اور اسلام کا قلعہ بنائے - آمین
