 a few weeks to go
before bakra idd
in a dinghy they came
killing in the name of Allah
the jehaddi game
non state actors
Muslims  to name
operating from
Pakistani territory
Islam defame
bombing innocent people
their notoriety to fame
the Muslim mother weeps
such is her shame
they who kill ruthlessly
mercilessly
without fear
our community
gets blamed
for political convenience
others are framed
the mastermind
never gets caught
will never get caught
in spite of their claim
a cat and mouse game
terrorism is yazidiyat
under a false name

on the sands of karbala
genocide  barbarism
he overcame
he gave his head
 but not his hand
Hussein is humanity
one and the same
the savior of Islam
we Shias proclaim
“Shah ast Hussain, badshah ast Hussain Deen ast Hussain, deen panaah ast Hussain Sar daad, na daad dast dar dast-e-yazeed Haqu-e-binney la ilaahaa ast Hussain”

“King is Hussain, King of Kings is Hussain/ Faith is Hussian, Protector of Faith is Hussain/ He gave his head but not his hand in the hand of Yazid/ Verily, truth is but Hussain.”

I saw the poster, perhaps the poster saw me, it is a picture of a Saras Crane the National bird of Uttar Pradesh, slaughtered for its exotic flesh.

Scientific name: Grus antigone
Local name: “Saras Crane”
Occurrence
Mostly found in Lumbini and western terai regions and also found in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and Burma

Description
Adult is grey, with bare red head and upper neck and bare ashy –green crown

Conservation Status
Listed in DNPWC 2029 Act Appendix I, CITES Appendix I and IUCN Red Data Book as lower risk/near threatened.

The Shia across the border are gunned down, slaughtered, while the government turns a Nelsons eye.Yes the survival of the Shia ia a cause for concern.
In Iraq every minute is Death for the Shias, specially those at Karbala that come to make this perilious pilgrimage, but the most important pilgrimage of their lives.

Shias follow Allah, His Messanger the Holy Prophet , the Holy Book and the Holy Progeny Ahle Bait , yet they are targeted as Heretics.
Web sites like Char Yar that promote sectarian Hate should be shut down..
Global Peace inthe World and Peace as Islamic Brotherhood should be given an impetus in troubled times that each one of us faces in survival.
Healing is the most important clone tool for Humanity.

Is she a Shia woman
Is she a Sunni woman
Did I need to ask her
Who is she ?
A Womans bane
That she is a woman
In a sectarian Islam
A Muslims woman’s
Universal pain
A male dominated
A mullah dominated
Society
To which she is chained
A pain from time immemorial
Self contained
Her Hijab her vulnerability
Her protective armour
Uncomplained
On the roads
Begging life unsustained
Ya Allah
Ya Maulah mushkil kusha
laailaha illallah
A Muslim woman s life
Unexplained
They who close their eyes
Mock pictorial evidence
In their Fatwa reign
It’s a mans world
No man is humane
Woman a commodity
Woman a chattel
A Muslim Woman’s pain
