they the holier than thou puritans

spiritual stalwarts call

our acts of scourging

head cutting

our bodies half clad

heresy

get angry and mad

yet when their own kind

kill terrorize humanity

they call it holy war and jihad

hypocrisy

sealed silence

a form of approval

iron clad

1400 years

of ghame hussain

the sands of karbala

he gave away everything he had

his integrity , truth justice equality

his birthright he kept intact

as the grandson of the holy prophet

hazrat ali ibn talib his illustrious dad

hussain is humanity

I must add

this picture shot by an American Jew

from Manhatten

pictorial poetry

that needs no launching pad

allah ho akbar

petro dollar

cybernetic hate for shiasm

an online asymmetrical

sectarian ad

AliAsghars Cradle

With this lot I complete the entire Moharam segment of Lucknow.
All these Cds were lying with me for several months,but they saw daylight anyway.
The Juloos at Imambada Meeran Saab, was to pay tribute to the Fourth Imam Zainul Abedin and the rest of the kith and kin of Imam Hussain.Here on display were the replicas 18 in number, with the Amary.After the juloos was the usual scourgings that I missed as my memory cards were full.I did not carry my Nikon F100 or I would have shot negatives too.
Most of the videographers who shoot all this sell the clips , which will be added to the VCDS of Nohakars of Matam and Marsiyas.
As this is a Shia affair , hardly anyone else shoots it, at the Shia Mosques and Imambadas , non Muslims are strictly not allowed, so all these years of shooting Moharam,mostly in metropolitan cities Moharam is shot on the streets, during Ashura and Chehlum.
The Indian newspapers , give limited space or maybe just a stray mention about Moharam.The Urdu newspapers avoid Moharam, as most of the Urdu newspapers are mouthpiece of Wahabbism thought that considers Moharam a Heresy and the Shias as Heretics.
I have never given my Moharam or my photo journalism pictures to the press.
Very early years I did give some to Hindustan Times Lucknow edition, but the curiosity at that time was my Bollywood status as a designer of actor Govinda .I am now a tailorman.Govindia wears whites he has become a politician and Neta No1 of the masses.
So in retrospection I think the Imambada Meeran Saab juloos at Muftiganj,, the Hazrat Qasim Mehndi, the Bada Imambada Ag Ka Matam, the Darya Wala Alam of Hazrat Abbas Juloos, 9 th Moharam Juloos from Nakhas , the 10th Moharam Ashura Juloos from Nakhas ,the 11th Moharam Hazrat Abbad Dargah juloos is what comprises 11 days of Mahram in Lucknow , commemorating the Martyrdom of Imam Hussain erstwhile grandson of the Holy Prophet of Islam..

Zuljana

Any Moharam Juloos in India is incomplete without the participation of a horse that symbolises Zuljana the steed of Hazrat Imam Hussain.
His faithfulness is the tragic story of Karbala.The valiant steed protecting his Master till the very end,his symbolism is not the fleshiness of a horse, but his qualities that all be it were lacking in Islamists that made up Yazids superior army.
This was the Might of the Ummayad Caliphate brutalising all the five pillars of Islam.
So whatever accusations are hurled at Shias for being Imam Hussains killers, or being Jews , whatever crap, the Sunni fact remains Yazid who pulled the trigger was the killer of Imam Hussain.
He could not have been a Shia..as the word Shia denoted anyone who was a follower of Ali.
Many a times any group with a revolutionary agenda to misguide Islam, would be given a derogatory title, the most common hackneyed one was Shia.A criminal was simply called Shia.
For 100 years from Sunni minarets of the Caliphates Alis name was taken abusively, his followers persecuted, so the Shia took up Taqqaiya , he hid his religion to save the lives of his loved ones..Taqqaiya was justifiable in such circumstances, I am not a historian nor an Islamic scholar, but this is what I have gathered from the discourses of other scholars in the Majlis.
So guys at Allah Ho Akbar .net get overexcited, almost jumping out of their shrunk pajamas in dengrating this vibrant Prophet s progeny following sect.Believers of Ahle Bait and above all Allah the Omnipresent and Omniscient.
Well cyberspace is the new Karbala and Hussainiyat lives in a click of a Mouse , at the same time Yazid the cyborgean monster is reborn thanks to websites of Shia hatredness ,all I can say…Truth triumphs in the end.
Ya Hussain is a cry of Truth triumphing over falsified hopes of kurtas of overstretched imagination warped in a weft of self hate..
I take a bow.

this self flagellation
of kama zani
zanzir zani
to stop
any thought
of another karbala
another yazid
our blood oath
without
hesitation
to put to rest
your fears
yes
just a single chant
ya hussain
shia denomination
allah ho akbar
no more taqqaiya oops
no more your spirtual chains
your yokel
your domination
yes we are shias
right to matam is
our souls gratification
our bleeding flesh
a part of a shia sensation
call us rafidis kafirs heretic
we wont lose our patience
a drop of a tear
pact of a shia creation
all roads lead to karbala
within the beating
heart of our chest
a true shia nation

denigrating the name of Allah

from their cybernetic minaret

pompous puritanical

tutored Saudi backed little pets

weaving their own sordid nets

shia haters

shia baiters

shia bashers

shia encashers

demonical  disguised you bet

a url that says allah ho akbar dot net

sectarian hate spewing more hate

bathing in a communal toilet

catastrophic chaotic rants

of juvenile delinquents

who fume and frequently fret

seeing our bleeding they get upset

paradise is million light years away

without the benovlence of Ahle Bait

they forget

1400 years pain

that we commemorate

Ya Hussain 

Ya Hussain

a war cry

we never forget

trampling yazidiyat

no empty threat

our blood tears and sweat

 to live like Ali

 to die like Hussain

our black clothes

our matam

our majlis

our azadari

a spinal column

of our spiritual quest

from this world into
the next world we will pass
tears for bibi fatima
beneath the shadow of alam abbas
oops taqqaiya
allah ho akbar
we bypass
dont throw stones
you live in a cybernetic world
made of glass
we cut our bodies
scourge bleed
mind outpacing mass
we dont lob grenades
maim , decapitate or
other communities harass
on other peoples privacy of thought
we dont tresspass
so let us do what we do
stop behaving like a jackass
yes it is hussainiyat that
as wealth of our spirituality
we amass ..
did it not spread eagle yazidiyat
a momentary abberation so crass
with our curses on the enemies
of janabe fatima
we will surpass
it is not just a sectarian difference
its an ideology impasse

candles flickering in the wind
but her faith in ahle bait
steadfast..
through her childrens children
it will everlast
yes before she was born
the die was cast
her destiny
her yacht of devotion
that needs no mast
karbala the present future
a past overcast
an unforgettable
holocaust
yet he stood tall
this Hussaini iconoclast
a sacrifice unsurpassed
shah ast hussain
badshah ast hussain
on the soul of yazidiyat
criss-crossed
come what may
hussainiyat
on the forehead of Shia
unborn children embossed
through our tears
ghame hussain
azadari e hussain
our love for
the beloved grandson
of the Holy Prophet
we broadcast
allah ho akbar
a maksade hussain
forever we will hold fast

The Web Master at Allah Ho Akbar .Net might choke after he reads this , but than being a Web Master and getting entangled in ones own net is an occupational hasard.One can delete a file, at the click of a mouse, but deleting Shia or Shiasm with hyperbolic hallucinations is a difficult task,even Yazid with his powerful army got entangled in his own net vanquished by one Man who now is synonomous with Humanity.. Imam Hussain , such is the power beyond the click of a mouse, in its simplicity we call it Shah Ast Hussain..
The carrier of this powerful message is a new born Shia child, I have seen , that the Shia Child when born has his hand on his chest as though he is ready to do Matam , oops what am I saying, yes the Shia child lets out a wail which is his war cry audibly revebrating as Ya Hussain.
When the Shia Child is growing , he is aware of his mission in life, Maksade Hussain.
Right from the beginning he rattles off ..
Allah Ek
Panjetan Panch
Imam Bara
Masoom Choudah
Khuda ke Nur se Paida Hue Hain
Panchon Tan
Mohomed , Asto Ali
Fatima Hassan Hussain

Yes for a Shia Child everything is important , but everything is complete without the benovelence of Ahle Bait.The Shia child carried n his mothers waist without any training imitates his mother beating his chest, he is a fast learner, no indoctrination needed, this is more effective than just parroting the Holy Koran, he sees his mother weep, he knows Pain, he felt the pain during birth, he relives this pain , the pain of being a follower of Imam Hussain.
I am mesmrised by the Shia child, this is not a brain washing, this is not a enforced toilet traning this comes with the territory of being born a Shia.
Yes the Shia child is special.
I learnt this during Athvi in Lucknow , watching little kids with Alams marching to Kazmain with a cofidencence unbecoming of a child.
A Shia child is an Adult..
I saw the Shia children at Mr Shabeeb Rizvis house and till date I can never forget the glint of redeeming hope in the eyes of Little Baqar son of sports journalist Ehtesham Hassans son..I was drowning he saved me..with all your hate , venom , you cannot corrupt our Shia kids , they are the Faith of our sect..It takes a Shia mother to produce a Shia kid, no mean task..
I take my hats off to Shia mothers..
This little kid in the picture had come with his mother to the Matam at my mother in laws House Imambada , he saw me , he came to see me , yes we were both kindered soul, I was taking the strength of my Shiasm from him…
Once go to Hyderabad on Ashura Day at the Bargah you will know what it means keeping our Faith alive..yes we inflict wounds on our bodies, we mark ourselves, we do everything you despise us for, but honestly we dont teach our kids to cut off heads of Kafirs, we dont teach our kids to place bombs in trains, we dont teach our kids to lob grenades while heads are bowed in prayers to Allah.We teach our kids nothing , they bring their values intact, we are a race that was created to mourn for Imam Hussain, we Indian Shias are a race born as a gift of God to appease the love of Imaam Hussain for a land called Hindustan he, said I know in Hindustan there are no Mussalmans but yes there are Insans..meaning human beings.
I am not a Mullah, I do not have the arsenal of Koranic verses , but yes I have one thing that is Truth .. I was born a Shia I shall die a Shia..I have pledged my body to a Medical research.. somebody might see with my eyes, or my organs…or what is left of them.
I do not seek Paradise..you can add this to my heresy..of being a Rafidi Shia…
A state of Mind that goes beyond Matter.

Child Abuse Kiss My Ass.Picture Title.

I missed this picture, I have a problem with diminishing eye sight, I am wearing my wife’s reading glasses, I just given my glasses for the new numbers,thanks to Dr Barua.

Shia kids born in households practising Shiasm, especially in predominant Shia localities like Old Lucknow , Hyderabad, Kolkatta, Mumbai, get into the spirit of Matam from a very young age, maybe initially there is a sense of fear , but after the first time it just disappears.I have seen it, there are macho fathers, who I wont deny take more pride in seeing their kid do Kama Zani or Zanzir zani , or even the Fire walk, gradually the kid along with his friends begins doing it independently.
Somethings are inborn, some you cultivate, I used to hate comuters exactly two years back, I was envious of my kids sitting out there playing games , I once went to throw it out, because I did not need computers I thought, I read books , I did not write a single word, but once I bought the Nikon D 70 Digital disaster , I was stuck,I needed a comp, software to work on my pictures, no need of contact sheets or later the 4\6 from which I did my blow up for prints to be sent as salon exhibits in club competitions.
I had no other recourse I would plead to Atul Chobey a whiz kid digital photographer, till I decded enough was enough , I joined Salik Khans “Word Start “paid him Rs 4000/ for a three weeks course in basic computers , Photoshop, I bought my first computer , installed at my shop, for working on my pictures, no Internet , no nothing.
I know once I hit the Blogging scene , there was no turning back,fell in love with an America Woman , almost a whisker away from my second marriage, I a 50 plus man had regressed to a 16 year old lost all sense of reality and propriety too , I was in cybernetic love more damning than the offline achievable one , I was grounded in India love northern lit in Alaska.
Anyway I digress , a person can inculcate anything once he he gets impassioned enough.
I became a kid in love, a little kid in Moharam with a stroke of the blades on his back becomes Man.I dont know why this act upsets the Puritanical forces of Islam..They love citing our acts as Christianity, meaning the 14 stations of the Crosss on Easter Friday, or comparing us to the Jews.F*** You.Why do you get hurt if we inflict pain, do some introspection , before you say Allah Ho Akbar before asking 12 years old to raise the sword decapitating the infidel, before you say Allah Ho Akbar lobbing a mosque in a Shia Mosque , where Stan is not worshipped certainly, when you say Allah Ho Akbar place bombs in trains..You Muezzins of pristine Islam set your house in order first , before you fling stones at us.
Unlike a Mullah I do not need to unfurl scriptures distorted to a situation, I am a street man, I shoot pain.The Shia hardliners go after a Shias ass like mine , should read this too.
You have to live and let live.Maybe you guys at your sectarian Hate promoting agenda are happy , good for you , stuff it up a succumbing Ass.
I have no problems I dont promote Shiasm , Shiasm is not a relgion it is a state of Bliss , a state of Mind .
You have it or you dont.
You dont convert to becoma a Shia.
All conversion stink.
I bought Shiasm from my mothers womb.
My mothers womb was my house of prayer.
The first words while floating in the holy waters of my mothers amniotic fluid was Ya Hussain Ya Hussain
You have to be born a Shia.
There is no turning back.
Allah ho Akbar.
Dot net Profit.
