Punjab govt and LEJ

ISLAMABAD: While the federal government wants the Punjab government to launch a massive crackdown on the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LJ) and defunct Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP), Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif is unlikely to oblige. The main reason is a seat-to-seat adjustment deal between the PML-N and Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat (ASWJ) for the upcoming elections.

Well-informed circles in the ASWJ (previously the SSP) confirmed that following extensive discussions, the two parties had agreed to have seat adjustments in the general election on at least 15 seats of the National Assembly from South Punjab where they would not field candidates against each other.

Two former key leaders of SSP, Maulana Mohammad Ahmed Ludhianvi and Malik Mohammad Ishaq, who are currently the president and vice president of the ASWJ respectively, are all set to run for two National Assembly seats from the South Punjab in the coming polls, with the support of the PML-N.

After being banned by the Musharraf regime as a terrorist group in 2002, the SSP was renamed as the ASWJ and it will be using the same platform to contest the election. Malik Ishaq, who has been commanding the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi since his July 14, 2011 release from a Lahore jail, was made vice president of the ASWJ on September 18, 2012 by Maulana Ludhianvi.

He was formally inducted into the ASWJ hardly a few days after Interior Minister Rehman Malik had written a letter to the chief secretary Punjab, asking him to arrest Ishaq for allegedly sponsoring sectarian terrorism. The letter was never responded to.

On the other hand, in September 2012 Ludhianvi said: “I deserve praise for making Ishaq throw away his weapons. Now the Interior Ministry should talk to a deweaponized Ishaq”. However, the federal government believes sectarian terrorism has multiplied, especially in Quetta against the Shia Hazaras, following the release of Ishaq.

Rehman Malik has only recently blamed the Punjab government for harbouring the Lashkar and Sipah, adding that it must take stern action against them to nip the evil of terrorism in the bud.

Giving a speech in the Senate on February 20, he said if the Punjab government won’t take action against these groups, he would himself raid their hideouts. “The central headquarters of these groups are in the Punjab, while their sub-headquarters are in Karachi”.

About the February 16 suicide hit in Quetta, he said, “Liquid explosives were used for the first time with the composition of diesel and potassium chloride. The tanker bomb was assembled in Lahore by Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and transported to Quetta”.

But informed circles in the ASWJ believe the PML-N government in the Punjab would not risk jeopardising its recently concluded pact on seat adjustments by acting against the ASWJ leaders in a big way.

The ASWJ is an active component of Difa-e-Pakistan Council (DPC), which is packed with the establishment’s favourites who dabble in extremist rhetoric. These circles added that the PML-N’s latest strategy of confronting the PPP in South Punjab is hinged on its understanding with the ASWJ. They conceded that the PML-N and ASWJ had reached a consensus on seat adjustments in the Punjab and National Assembly for the upcoming elections.

The understanding was reached after hectic parleys between Maulana Ludhianvi and the Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah Khan. The ASWJ has a strong Sunni Deobandi vote bank in many constituencies of South Punjab and the PML-N obviously wants to take advantage of that in the coming general election.

According to the ASWJ insiders, the PML-N has agreed to support their candidates on four National Assembly seats from South Punjab. In return, the ASWJ will not field its candidates against the PML-N in 12 constituencies.

The five Punjab districts where the two parties will support each other’s candidates include Jhang, Faisalabad, Bahawalnagar, Rahim Yar Khan and Layyah. The ASWJ sources did not rule out the possibility of Malik Ishaq and Maulana Ludhianvi contesting the next general elections on two of the four National Assembly seats from South Punjab where the PML-N will support them.

To a question, the ASWJ sources said if Malik Ishaq was not allowed to contest the polls due to the pending cases against him, his son Malik Mohammad Usman will be their most likely candidate from NA-177 Muzaffargarh.

Ludhianvi is most likely to contest from NA-89 Jhang, which was previously won by Sheikh Waqas Akram of the PML-Q, who is all set to join the PPP to run for the same seat. To recall, the PML-N and ASWJ had jointly contested a by-election on a Punjab Assembly seat for Jhang in March 2010.

Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah chose to campaign for the PML-N candidate in PP-82 [on February 20, 2010] along with Ludhianvi, which was bitterly criticised by the then Governor Punjab Salman Taseer. The election was eventually won by Azam Chaila of PML-N with SSP’s crucial support.

Approached for comments, central secretary general of ASWJ Khadim Hussain Dhiloon said his party was open to talks with all the political and religious parties in connection with the upcoming polls.

Even during the 2008 elections, he said, almost all the major political parties including the PPP, PML-N, ANP, PML-Q and the JUI had sought the ASWJ’s support in the four provinces of the country and subsequently won their seats.

Dhiloon said Maulana Ludhianvi was already on record having produced to the media [in 2012] a list of 25 PPP leaders who won their seats in the 2008 polls because of the ASWJ’s support. Therefore, he said, the PPP had no moral justification to criticise the other parties if they want an election understanding with the ASWJ”.

Approached for comments, Siddiqueul Farooque, a central executive committee member of the PML-N, expressed ignorance about a seat adjustment agreement between his party and ASWJ. However, he claimed that many key leaders of the PPP had won the 2008 general elections with the support of the SSP, including Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Syed Khurshid Shah, Qamaruz Zaman Kaira, Jamshed Dasti and several others.

“It is totally moral and principled for the PPP to seek the support of these groups when they need their votes. But if any other party even thinks of getting their electoral support, it is lambasted by the PPP and declared pro-fascists”.

He then raised a few queries about the status of the “so-called” banned organisations, saying: “I want to know if allegations against these groups have already been established in any court; have these groups already been declared terrorist outfits by any court; has the Election Commission of Pakistan barred the leaders of these groups from casting their votes in the coming elections; have these leaders not been set free from jails?” The PML-N leader concluded: “If the government still believes all these groups are involved in terrorism and anti-state activities, it should approach the Supreme Court to get them banned”.

new election rules

ISLAMABAD: The Election Commission of Pakistan has made it mandatory for candidates for national and provincial assembly seats to submit income and agriculture tax returns of the past three years.

According to changes in declaration and oath approved by the ECP at a meeting presided over by Chief Election Commissioner Justice (retd) Fakhruddin G. Ebrahim here on Tuesday, candidates will be required to disclose their income and source and income tax paid over the past three years.

They will also have to submit details of their children studying abroad and expenses incurred on their education, foreign trips undertaken by them during the period and cost incurred and a copy of the passport used.

The candidates will be required to give details of agricultural land held by them and agriculture income and tax paid during that period.

Earlier they were required to provide details of their movable and immovable property in and outside Pakistan, but now they will also have to state location, description, built-up area and market value of the house or apartment in which they are living.

The candidates will also have to submit names of their spouse and dependants and declare that the names are correct and no name has been left out. They will be required to give details of companies owned by them, their spouse or dependants.

They will also have to submit a statement on oath that they have neither ceased to be a citizen of Pakistan nor they have acquired or applied for citizenship of a foreign state and a declaration that they will have no objection if information relating to acquisition of citizenship of a foreign state or application for such citizenship is provided by a foreign state to the ministry of foreign affairs. Failure to provide details about any matter mentioned in the form shall render their nomination invalid.

Those who have been members of the national or a provincial assembly will be required to describe what they consider to be the most important contribution made by them for the benefit of their constituency.

Candidates will also be required to state whether they made any payment to their political party to obtain its ticket, and if so how much.

They will also have to disclose if they received any amount of money from the party which awarded them the ticket. They will be required to provide details of any donation given by them to any recognised charitable organisation or educational institution over the past three years.

Candidates will also be required to provide details of the bank account opened for election expenses, along with the name and branch of the bank and an undertaking that they will make all election expenses from the amount deposited in the account and will not make any transaction for poll expenses through another account.

They will have to provide details of the value of total assets and expenditure including mortgages secured on property or land and their personal expenditure, indicating increase or decrease over the previous year.

An official of the ECP told Dawn that rules needed to be amended for making changes in the format of nomination papers and declarations, which the commission would be able to do with the approval by the president. He said a reference for the purpose was being sent to the president through the ministry of law and justice.

He said the commission had taken notice of reports about Sindh government’s plan to give 27,500 plots to PPP workers and sought a report from the chief secretary.

The ECP decided that a ban on transfer of Rs250 million by the Finance Division to the ministry of law for payments to be made to the bar councils will be lifted next month after expiry of the term of the National Assembly.

Lashkar e jhangvi gives threat to Balochistan govt

LAHORE: The Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) has warned the government to immediately shift its under-trial militants from the high-security Anti Terrorism Force (ATF) Jail in Quetta Cantonment to the Central Jail Hudda in the provincial metropolis or get ready to faceyet another suicide assault by its Fidayeen attackers – this time targeting the ATF prison.

According to well-placed circles in the security establishment, the threat was hurled by Abu Bakar Siddiq, the spokesman of the LeJ’s Balochistan chapter in phone calls he had made after the February 16 Alamdar Road suicide bombings in Quetta which killed 90 Shia Hazaras.

The ATF jail in Quetta, where those charged with involvement in terrorist activities are held, is notorious for severe tales of torture during interrogation. Most of the prisoners there are either Baloch nationalists or the LeJ militants. Of the 50-plus LeJ henchmen who are being tried in Quetta for their involvement in terrorist activities, over two dozen are being kept at the ATF jail. It is the same prison where the chief of the LeJ’s Balochistan chapter Usman Kurd and his second-in-command Dawood Badini were being kept till January 18, 2008.

The Kurd-Badini, duo which now spearheads the ongoing massacre of Shia Hazaras in Balochistan, had made good its escape under mysterious circumstances after breaking the ATF jail despite the fact that it is located in the high security garrison zone of Quetta Cantonment. Senior police officials in Quetta say the LeJ wants the shifting of the under trial militants from the ATF jail because the prison authorities have made fool proof security arrangements there since the January 2008 jail break episode. They added that compared with the ATF prison, which is exclusively meant for hardcore terrorists, the Central Jail Hudda, Quetta, is less secured because it is largely meant to keep under trial criminal elements.

While making phone calls to several journalists of television channels and newspapers on the night of February 16 to claim responsibility for the Alamdar Road suicide hit, the LeJ spokesman reportedly read out a written statement on phone: “The vehicle bomb at Alamdar Road was blown up by our colleague Umar Farooq. The government should be under no illusion now that the imposition of the Governor’s Rule in Balochistan has failed to dissuade us from targeting our enemy — the Shia Hazaras. We want to make it clear to the Shia Hazaras that they should not consider themselves safe and secure till the establishment of the Islamic Caliphate in Pakistan”.

The spokesman further said: “The Mujahideen of the Lashkar-e-Jhangvi will continue to kill Shias regardless of the imposition of the Governor’s rule or the deployment of the Army. We will protect the honor of Islamic Caliphs by sacrificing each and everyone of us. The February 16 Fidayeen attack by a vehicle bomber was the second one in the Shia dominated area since the beginning of 2013. Let me inform the Shia Hazaras that we have 20 more such vehicles which are packed with lethal explosives and ready to hit the enemy. We are only waiting for next orders from our leadership to hit our targets in Alamdar Road, Mehrabad and Hazara Town. We are neither afraid of the Governor’s Rule nor the Pakistan Army and we will continue to kill Shias Hazaras in their homes”.

Following the January 10 twin suicide bombings on the Alamdar Road which killed 103 Shia Hazaras, LeJ spokesman Abu Bakar Siddiq had not only claimed responsibility for the incident but also reminded that the Hazaras had been warned to leave Balochistan by the end of 2012 or face severe consequences.

“Many of the Hazara enemies had fled but there were those who decided to stay back as they loved their jobs and properties. God willing, the Lashkar will not allow any of these Hazaras to leave Balochistan alive. Today’s suicide attack (January 10) was only the first in a series of deadly bombings. God willing, we will conduct such stunning attacks in the coming days that the enemies will not be able to flee Balochistan alive”.

According to the Hazara Democratic Party (HDP) Chairman Abdul Khaliq Hazara, the ongoing reign of terror against the Shia Hazaras in Quetta had intensified following the release of Malik Mohammad Ishaq, a key leader of the LeJ who was bailed out by the Supreme Court of Pakistan on July 14, 2011 after spending 14 years in jail. Charged with involvement in over 100 sectarian murders, he was released due to “lack of evidence”.

The Hazara community alleges that Malik Ishaq has re-established contact with Usman Kurd and Dawood Badini after he was set free. Ishaq’s release instantly led to sectarian tensions in the Punjab because of the anti-Shia sermons he started delivering while touring the province.

role of millitant organizations in our politics

* Banned group leader says Qureshi, Kaira, Dasti won through their support
* PML-N, PML-Q parliamentarians also sought help

Daily Times Monitor

LAHORE: The leader of a banned terrorist outfit Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan (SSP), Muhammad Ahmad Ludhianvi, has alleged that at least 25 MNAs belonging to the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) won the general elections with the votes and support of his party, a private TV channel reported on Sunday.

Talking to a private TV channel, Ludhianvi claimed that Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Jamshed Dasti, Qamaruz Zaman Kaira, Hayatullah Tareen, Khursheed Shah, Asghar Jutt, and Faisal Karim Kundi managed to win the elections from their respective constituencies with the support of the SSP. 

He also claimed during the television programme that several MNAs and MPAs of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) had requested for his organisation’s support during the February 2008 general elections.

The SSP leader denied the perception that the SSP is working to carry out terrorist activities in the country. He reiterated that his organisation was not working against the country’s interests. He said that former president Gen (r) Pervez Musharraf had imposed sanctions on the organisation, but these sanctions were not supported by the parliament.

Higgs boson confirms Islamic view about the end of the universe

BOSTON — If the "Higgs-like particle" discovered last year is really the long-sought Higgs boson, the bad news is that its mass suggests the universe will end in a fast-spreading bubble of doom. The good news? It'll probably be tens of billions of years before that particular doomsday arrives.

That's one of the weirder twists coming out of the continuing analysis of results from Europe's Large Hadron Collider, which produced the first solid evidence for the existence of the Higgs boson last year. Current theory holds that the Higgs boson plays a role in imparting mass to other fundamental particles. Confirming the discovery of the Higgs would fill in the last blank spot in that theory, known as the Standard Model.
Physicists discussed the state of the Higgs quest in Boston on Monday during the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

So far, the particle that was found at the LHC fits all the requirements for the Higgs boson, but scientists aren't quite ready to confirm that the particle is really, truly the Higgs boson. It could be, say, just the first of multiple particles involved in the process. "The door is still very much open that there's [another] particle that has a role to play, or even more than that," said Christopher Hill, a physicist at Ohio State University who is also deputy physics coordinator for the LHC's Compact Muon Solenoid experiment.

The LHC has just started a two-year shutdown for equipment upgrades — and Howard Gordon, deputy chair of the physics program at Brookhaven National Laboratory, said "it's going to take another few years" after the collider is restarted to confirm definitively that the newfound particle is the Higgs boson.

In the meantime, physicists have tightened their estimates of the particle's mass: Hill said the current estimate from the Compact Muon Solenoid is 125.8 billion electron volts, or 125.8 GeV, plus or minus 0.6 GeV. The figure from the LHC's other Higgs-boson detector, known as ATLAS, is 125.2 GeV, plus or minus 0.7 GeV.

Those figures can be factored into equations that point to the long-term fate of the universe, said Joseph Lykken, a theoretical physicist at Fermilab.

So what's the outlook?

"If you use all the physics that we know now, and we do what we think is a straightforward calculation, it's bad news," Lykken said. "It may be that the universe we live in is inherently unstable. At some point, billions of years from now, it's all going to be wiped out."

He said the parameters for our universe, including the Higgs mass value as well as the mass of another subatomic particle known as the top quark, suggest that we're just at the edge of stability, in a "metastable" state. Physicists have been contemplating such a possibility for more than 30 years. Back in 1982, physicists Michael Turner and Frank Wilczek wrote in Nature that "without warning, a bubble of true vacuum could nucleate somewhere in the universe and move outwards at the speed of light, and before we realized what swept by us our protons would decay away."

Lykken put it slightly differently: "The universe wants to be in a different state, so eventually to realize that, a little bubble of what you might think of as an alternate universe will appear somewhere, and it will spread out and destroy us."

That alternate universe would be "much more boring," Lykken said. Which led him to ask a philosophical question: "Why do we live in a universe that's just on the edge of stability?" He wondered whether a universe has to be near the danger zone to produce galaxies, stars, planets ... and life.

Even Hill found it interesting that the parameters of particle physics put our universe right along the critical line. "That's something new, which we didn't know before, and which leads some of us to that there's something else coming," Hill said.

When Hill referred to "something else," he was talking about new discoveries in physics — not the end of the world. Lykken emphasized that it would be at least tens of billions of years before vacuum instability took hold.

"To get the exact number, we need more funding," he joked.

Commentary :

Quran mentions that the earth will be like flakes of cotton on the doomsday and that there will be great noise on the doomsday and the above article affirms these two aspects of the doomsday mentioned in Quran.when the expanding bubble of universe will burst,it will most probably create shock waves which will push earth towards the sun which is again in accord with the Islamic view.Uptill now ,very little of Islamic views have been confirmed by science,yet what has been discovered is enough to strengthen one's belief.

Higgs Boson particle reveals that Universe has a finite life

By Irene Klotz

BOSTON (Reuters) - Scientists are still sorting out the details of last year's discovery of the Higgs boson particle, but add up the numbers and it's not looking good for the future of the universe, scientists said Monday.

"If you use all the physics that we know now and you do what you think is a straightforward calculation, it's bad news," Joseph Lykken, a theoretical physicist with the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois, told reporters.

Lykeen spoke before presenting his research at the American Association for the Advancement of Science meeting in Boston.

"It may be that the universe we live in is inherently unstable and at some point billions of years from now it's all going to get wiped out," said Lykken, who is also on the science team at Europe's Large Hadron Collider, or LHC, the world's largest and highest-energy particle accelerator.

Physicists last year announced they had discovered what appears to be a long-sought subatomic particle called the Higgs boson, which is believed to give matter its mass.

Work to study the Higgs' related particles, necessary for confirmation, is ongoing.

If confirmed, the discovery would help resolve a key puzzle about how the universe came into existence some 13.7 billion years ago - and perhaps how it will end.

"This calculation tells you that many tens of billions of years from now, there'll be a catastrophe," Lykken said.

"A little bubble of what you might think of as an ‘alternative' universe will appear somewhere and then it will expand out and destroy us," Lykken said, adding that the event will unfold at the speed of light.

Scientists had grappled with the idea of the universe's long-term stability before the Higgs discovery, but stepped up calculations once its mass began settling in at around 126 billion electron volts - a critical number it turns out for figuring out the fate of the universe.

The calculation requires knowing the mass of the Higgs to within one percent, as well as the precise mass of other related subatomic particles.

"You change any of these parameters to the Standard Model (of particle physics) by a tiny bit and you get a different end of the universe," Lyyken said.

Earth will likely be long gone before any Higgs boson particles set off an apocalyptic assault on the universe. Physicists expect the sun to burn out in 4.5 billion years or so, and expand, likely engulfing Earth in the process.

Confessions of a SEAL who was part of 2nd May operation

WASHINGTON: The American commandos who killed Osama bin Laden were prepared to surrender if surrounded by Pakistani troops, says the man who killed the al Qaeda leader.

The Obama administration also saw this as a real possibility and was ready to send Vice President Joe Biden to negotiate their release, the shooter adds.

In an interview to the Esquire magazine, the shooter says he feels betrayed by the US government as he has “no pension, no health care and protection”. The interview will be published in the magazine’s March issue.

The shooter, whose name was not disclosed, was a member of the US Navy SEAL Team 6, which raided Bin Laden’s compound on May 1, 2011, and killed the world’s most wanted man. He retired in September, is unemployed since then and continues to worry how he is going to provide for his family.

While planning their raid on Bin Laden’s compound in Abbottabad, the Team 6 also discussed what would happen if they were surrounded by Pakistani troops.

“We would surrender. The original plan was to have Vice President Biden fly to Islamabad and negotiate our release with Pakistan’s president,” says the shooter.

“This is hearsay, but I understand President Obama said, ‘Hell no. My guys are not surrendering. What do we need to rain hell on the Pakistani military?’ ”

The commandos were also told that “we’d be scrambling jets on the border” to back up the raiding party.

“That was the one time in my life I was thinking, I am … voting for this guy (President Obama). I had a picture of him lying in bed at night,” says the shooter.

The `shooter’, as he is referred to in the interview as well, retired after 16 years, four short of the required service length for qualifying for a pension. He is also having trouble finding work because he cannot list his true credentials.

The Esquire interview goes into detail about the night the `shooter’ killed Bin Laden, as well as his life before and after military service.

Since Abbottabad, the shooter and his family have feared a retaliatory attack by terrorists.

He has trained his children to hide in their bathtub at the first sign of a problem as the safest, most fortified place in their house. His wife also knows how to use a shotgun and keeps a knife on the dresser should she need a backup. The family also keeps bags of clothes, food, and other provisions for two weeks in hiding.

“Personally, I feel more threatened by a potential retaliatory terror attack on our community than I did eight years ago,” when her husband joined Team 6, says his wife.

When the White House identified SEAL Team 6 as those responsible, camera crews swarmed into their Virginia Beach neighbourhood, taking shots of the SEALs’ homes.

After Bin Laden’s face appeared on their TV in the days after the killing, the shooter cautioned his older child not to mention the al Qaeda leader’s name ever again to anybody.

The wife could not take the pressure so they officially separated, although she still lives in the same house as she cannot afford to rent or buy another.

The Esquire points out that this is “a common occurrence in SEAL Team 6”.

“We’re actually looking into changing my name, changing the kids’ names, taking my husband’s name off the house, paying off our cars. Essentially deleting him from our lives, but for safety reasons. We still love each other,” the wife tells the magazine.

When the family asked about any kind of government protection should the shooter’s name come out, they were advised that they could go into a witness-protection-like programme.

The SEAL command told the shooter `they could get me a job driving a beer truck in Milwaukee” under an assumed identity. Like Mafia snitches, they would not be able to contact their families or friends. “We’d lose everything.”

The shooter recalls that when the Team 6 arrived in Afghanistan, they were asked to write letters to their families which would be delivered to them only if they were killed.

“The tears are hitting the page, because we all knew that none of us were coming back alive. It was either death or a Pakistani prison, where we’d be raped for the rest of our lives,” says the shooter while describing how he felt.

ذیل میں ،میں ان کی شخصیت کے تضادات کی طرف اشارہ کروں گا اور مجھے ایسا کرنے میں اس لئے کوئی ہچکچاہٹ نہیں ہے کیونکہ میں جانتا ہوں کہ اگر ایسا نہ کیا گیا تو نجانے کتنے ہی سادہ ذہن کے لوگ ان کے بھلیکھۓ میں آ جاییں  گے .

١-اوریا صاحب کا کہنا ہے کے ملک میں سے سودی نظام کا خاتمہ کیا جائے اور موجودہ بنکنگ سسٹم کو ختم کیا جائے .بہت اچھا مطالبہ ہے ،لیکن جناب اگر آپ کو اتنی ہی فکر ہے تو آپ اپنے لاکھوں پرستاروں کے ساتھ ایک دھرنا دے دیں ،یا پھر موجودہ سپریم کورٹ میں اپنا کیس لے جاہیں ،کیونکہ اسس کورٹ پر  تو آپ کو اعتماد    بھی ہے .تو پھر جلدی کیجئے ،کیونکہ جسٹس افتخار کی ریٹائرمنٹ میں ویسے بھی چند ماہ رہ گئے ہیں .اگر آپ ایسا نہیں کرتے تو اعوام  یہ سمجھنے میں حق بجانب ہوں گے کہ  آپ کی باتیں زبانی جمع خرچ کے علاوہ کچھ نہیں .

٢ - اتفاق سے اوریا صاحب کے کچھ جاننے والے صاحبان نظر بھی ہیں،ان کے مطابق .اب پتا نہیں صاحبان نظر وہ کن لوگوں کو سمجھتے ہیں ؟ پچھلے پانچ سال سے وہ عذابوں کی وعید سنا رہے ہیں ،لیکن ٢ سیلابوں کے علاوہ کچھ نہیں ہوا اور ان سیلابوں سے متا ثر بھی غریب اعوام  ہی ہوئی ،بگڑی ہوئی اشرافیہ کا کچھ نہیں گیا .لیکن جناب پر مصر رہے .امریکا میں سیلاب آیا تو جناب کا اصرار  تھا کہ یہ اس گستاخ فلمساز کی ناپاک حرکت کے سبب آیا ہے ،اس بات سے بےخبر تھے جناب کے جس ریاست میں اس وقت  وہ فلمساز قید تھا ،وہاں سیلاب آیا ہی  نہیں .

٣ -جناب جب میڈیا میں پھیلی فحاشی کا ذکر کرتے ہیں تو انہیں فیشن انڈسٹری اور Porn Industry کی تمام اصلاحات کا بخوبی علم ہوتا ہے اور ساتھ ہے ان کی مکمّل تاریخ کا بھی کہ فلاں سٹائل کب آیا اور فلاں کب .میں یہ بات حلفیہ کہنے کو تیار ہوں اور یہ بات ان کے ٹاک شوز کی ویڈیوز سے بھی ثابت کی جا سکتی ہے .

٤- جب عمران خان نے لاہور کا جلسہ کیا تو انہیں یہی مرد حق نظر آتا تھا ،جب اس پر  شوکت خانم ٹرسٹ کے حوالے سے الزام لگے تب بھی انہوں نے دبی دبی سی حمایت کی اس کی نام لئے بنا .پھر طاہر القادری کینیڈا سے آیا اور اس نے دھرنے کا اعلان کیا تو جناب ایک ٹی  وی چینل پر کہتے ہوے  سنے گئے کہ یہ بہت خوش آیند  بات ہے اور الله کرے کہ  اس سے خوش گوار تبدیلی آے .جب دھرنا فلاپ ہوا تو موصوف نے قادری صاحب کے خوب لتے لئے .شید مستقبل میں وہ مشرف کے بھی گن گاہیں

٥- موصوف پرطالبان کی حمایت کا بھوت بھی سوار ہے .موصوف طالبان کو اس وقت معصوم کہ کر ان کا دفاع کرتے ھوئے نظر آیے جب وہ برطانیہ سے مذاکرات کر رہے تھے اور شرط یہ رکھ رہے تھے کہ ہمیں ایٹمی طاقت تسلیم کیا جائے .جناب طالبان کی اس وقت بھی حوصلہ افزایئ   فرماتے تھے جب وہ وزیرستان میں آرمی کے نوجوانوں کو چن چن کر شہید کر رہے تھے اور جناب لال مسجد والوں کا موقف کھلّم کھلا  دوہرا رہے تھے کے مرنے والا بھی مسلمان ،مارنے والا بھی مسلمان ،کس کو صحیح کہو گے ؟

٦-آج کل جناب سودی نظام کے خلاف اور گولڈ کرنسی کے حقق میں کالم لکھتے   ہوے پاے جاتے ہیں .اچھی بات ہے کے وہ یہ کوشش کر رہے ہیں ،لیکن بظاھر لگتا یہی ہے کہ وہ زبانی جما خرچ کر رہے ہیں کیونکہ  اگر وہ واقعی سنجیدہ ہوتے تو چند روپے خرچ کر سپریم کورٹ میں ایک پٹیشن دایر کر دیتے کیونکہ موجودہ عدلیہ پر تو اعتماد  ہے ان کواور انہوں نے ایک ٹرسٹ العلم کے نام سے بنایا ہے جس نے موجودہ نظام کے متبادل کے طور پی کچھ اور تجاویز پر کام کر رکھا ہے ،وہ اپنی تجاویز اسلامی نظریاتی کونسل میں پیش کر دیں اور سپریمر کورٹ میں ایک پٹیشن دایر کر دیں،سپریم کورٹ خود دیکھ لے گی معاملے کو .

٧-ویسے تو اسلام کا درد رکھنے والے اس صحافی کو مالی اور برما میں مسلمانوں کا قتل عام نظر آتا ہے اور ان پر  دکھ کا اظہار کالمز میں بھی ہوتا ہے، لیکن اپنے ملک میں شیعوں کا قتل عام نظر نہیں آتا ؟ موصوف کا ایک پیج بھی ہے فیس بک پر ،کہنے کو تو یہ پیج ان کے فینز چلا رہے ہیں ،لیکن خبر ہے کہ اصل میں وہ خود اس پیج کو دیکھتے ہیں ،اور اس کی پوسٹس کو دیکھتے ہیں .اسی پیج پر چند روز قبل جناب نے شام میں بشر الاسد کی حکومت کو خرابی کا ذمّہ دار قرار دیا اور کہا کہ باغی دار اصل شام میں خلافت کا نظام چاہتے ہیں .میری ان سے ایک طویل  بحث ہوئی  ،خلاصہ جس کا یہ تھا کہ تمام مسالک کا ایک خلیفہ پر متفق ہونا اس وقت  ناممکن ہے،لکن جناب نہیں مانے اور بیچ میں ایران کو بھی قتل عام  کا ذمّ دار قرار دے دیا.وہ اور ان کے حامی  اصرار کرتے رہے کہ شام میں خلافت کے قیام میں رکاوٹیں اس لئے ڈالی جا رہی ہیں کہ شام اسرائیل کے مفادات کا ضامن ہے .اب جب چند روز قبل ایران اور شام نے اسرائیل کو دھمکی دی ہے تو شاید  جناب کی موٹی عقل میں کچھ آ گیا ہو کہ کون اسرئیل کی امداد سے کیا کر رہا ہے ؟

٩-خلافت کا قیام ان کا دیرینہ خواب ہے اور ان کا اصرار ہے کے تمام مسلم امّہ ایک خلیفہ پر  بآآسانی متفق ہو سکتی ہے .لیکن میں ان سے یہ پوچھنا چاہوں گا کہ خدا کو حاضر ناظر جن کر بتایں کہ کیا اگر خلافت کا قیام ایران،قطر ،عمان ،بحرین ،لبنان میں ہوتا ہے ،اور ایک شیعہ کو خلیفہ منتخب کر لیا جاتا ہے تو کیا آپ فورأ اس کی بیعت کر لیں گے ؟

حاصل کلام یہ ہے کہ جناب اوریا مقبول صاحب  یہ خلافت کی بحث کو چھوڑیں ،اور بیشک اسلامی نظام قایم ہونا چاہے ،اسلامی تعزیرات کا نفاذ بھی ہونا چاہیے ،لیکن  کوئی ایسا  اسلامی نظام لے کر آییں  جس پر سبھی مسلک اور فرقوں کا اتفاق ہو،جس میں سبھی کلمہ گو مسلامنوں کی جان و مال کے تحفّظ کی ضمانت ہو.پہلے تمام مسلمانوں کو قرآن کی ایک تفسیر ،ایک تشریح ،ایک سی تعزیرات پر متفق کر لیں ،پھر اگر آپ خلافت کے قیام کا مطالبہ کریں گے تو آپ کسی حد تک  حق بجانب بھی ہوں گے اور جب تک یہ نہیں ہوتا اس وقت تک مروجہ قانون کی ہی پاسداری کریں،اور اعوام کو بشارتیں دینا اور ڈرانا بند کریں، قوم کو حقیقت پسند بننے دیں ،بڑی مہربانی ہو گی آپ کی .
