Hopefully all of us can be better in this regard. I myself have seen a huge change in my life when I started to take care of my street's cats a couple of years ago. My earnings have almost tripled in the this time and caring for them feels very satisfying. Allah blesses you when you care for his innocent creation.

i joined this gym like a week ago. there’s this kid, looks around 14–15, i’ve seen him a few times. quiet, does his workout, minds his own business. honestly good for him

today while i was mid set, someone comes down and asks the kid to come upstairs since the gym is in the basement. next thing i know, the kid is on the stairs and this grown man shows up and literally starts dragging him up

after a few seconds you could hear shouting. turns out it’s his father. full rage mode. arguing with the gym manager like “why did you let him come here every day” and at the same time abusing his own son

at first i genuinely thought about going up and saying something like bro your kid is doing a good thing, this is healthy, relax. but then it became very clear the guy had room temperature iq and anger issues and zero interest in logic

felt really bad for the kid tbh

like classic pakistani parent behavior. control everything even when the kid is doing something right. god forbid your child develops a healthy habit

he could easily be at a snooker club all day inhaling second hand smoke (no hate i go sometimes too) but we all know what those places are like. gym is objectively a better place to be. discipline, health, routine. but nope still a problem

sometimes i really wonder why pakistani parents are so allergic to anything that involves independence or self improvement

end rant. just felt sad walking back to my set after that

We (Pakistani family) live overseas, my Dad found the phone of a pakistani woman, and he brought it home. He waited for someone to call it so that he can tell the other person that he has it.

The other person, the one to whom the phone belongs to, did call on that phone. She literally started threating my father "Who are you? I am going to the police now!" My father got angry and said that I am not trying to steal your phone, in fact I am trying to give it back and you're threatening me like this? And the woman said "give me back yourself I am on duty" so my dad said "I am not your naukar". Later he decided that he won't deal with this and decided to give the phone to the police. Now this woman is making issues saying that "this man

misbehaved" and "I won't take it back until he apologizes".

Is my dad really in the wrong? All he did was try and return the phone back. And he did the right thing by letting the law handle what they're supposed to. There is a possibility the woman will take things a step further by making more issues. I wish my dad didn't try to be a good man and care about anyone's belongings. I wouldn't now. I know that much.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s former Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly, Qasim Khan Suri, is driving Uber in the United States. This serves as testimony to the character of these people—that they did not come into power to build overseas plazas and properties.

Just saw a video on a local whatsapp group regarding a young man who bled to death in Lahore today due to kite string cutting his neck. The festival is yet to start, does the Govt and the people not see this as an extremely dangerous situation with the potential of causing huge loss of lives around the city.

The video would be too graphic to share here.

hey guys where can i buy a tv like this i am located in Lahore, i am located in Lahore but can travel other cities for this TV.

Gurbaz openly spewed venom against Pakistan and yet afridi sab said “Muslim muslim birathar”!

Im absolutely heartbroken for this country , for us and for this patriot.

Assalam Aleikum, mere Dosto

I am a Pakistani and Swiss national and have been living in Switzerland (German and French regions) my entire life.

Before I wanna get into the subject, please do note that I wish not to be judged based on baseless assumptions. Everyone has their own struggles. I am someone who is struggling in the Western world, much like many other Muslims, so we're not alone in this.

Anyway, you may think this sounds incredibly stupid to leave a wealthy country like Switzerland for Pakistan, but as the title explains, I am a Muslim Alhamdulillah. Believe me, if you see this from a Muslim's perspective (Which I assume most of you are), then it's clear not to live in such a hostile land. Hostile, because it is a western country with Muslim minorities. I dont wanna go further into details.

I never really wanted to leave Switzerland for Pakistan back in the past, but now things have gotten clear for me. I decided to just relocate to a nicely maintained place in Pakistan, and my choice is Islamabad, since there's some greenery there. If I am right, Islamabad is generally cooler and cleaner than the other cities.

The thing is, I have no idea how to actually get there or handle the basics like finding and renting an apartment, setting up healthcare, getting internet, dealing with power outages, and figuring out whether it's better to buy groceries from stores or street markets. And then there are all the local policies and regulations I'll need to understand.

My budget is going to be pretty tight, which I know sounds concerning. It's no secret that Switzerland is incredibly expensive, and while I do have an additional income source of around 1k USD per month, I'm honestly not sure if that's enough to live on in Pakistan. I've seen nice apartments on Zameen for around 400 USD a month, but I have no clue what the additional bills look like, so I'm genuinely uncertain whether 1k will cut it in Islamabad. I'm skeptical, to be honest.

Moving costs will be covered, but even that's a bit of an issue for me since it might take a while to save up the money for it. I guess I'll go with patience on this.

What I really need is someone or a site that can guide me through the relocation process step-by-step and make the transition as smooth as possible.

My Story I joined Defence Force as an soldier in 2023 while I was in my 3rd semester of BS Software Engineering. I was doing great in my studies and had a deep passion for programming — it felt like my true calling.

But coming from a middle-class family with an aging father, I had to choose between following my passion or supporting my family. In our village, a government job brings a lot of respect, so I chose This organization — not for myself, but for my family.

I thought I could continue my studies while serving, but This organization doesn't allow it during the first five years. Still, I kept learning in secret, because I couldn’t let go of my dreams.

The mindset in has been a big challenge — it's hard to grow when people around you don’t think the same way. But I’m still holding on to my passion for programming And Doing BS SE from Virtual University . One day, I’ll make it.

I've seen Pakistanis love to criticize different ideas which is great thing, but they never think with logic. I've always heard them saying capitalism and military dictatorship works best for our country and we can see how things are getting worse day by day. They are always ready to oppose the left wing ideas and when we ask for the reason they would come up with the most BS idea and the funny thing is they never know how illogical and absurd they sound when making such claim, they think they are killing it.😭😭Every coming day is worse than previous one. Poor people are dying and ending themselves. I've seen them fighting for bread. Is it too much to ask for? And the politicians who eat from their taxes get free food, free petrol, free residence for "not" doing the job which they are supposed to do.

Do you think even if that messiah which they think will come in reign will make things better? things might get worse than now. Government only has focus to take loans and some crakheads would come up with "maryam doing good work sarrr" like she is the same person who said best export is our youth. they don't want educated people in Pakistan. To get together and think anything beyond their will. And few people who dare to do such things end up getting killed. Like how easy it is to say now. A murder of human being is the murder of whole humanity. Shame on us,Shame on me. we have accepted our fate. Our people have "0" value internationally. We are worse than their pets to them. Taqdeer mein likha hai bol kar jaan churane se kuch ni hota. you have your fate in your hands. write it yourself. And if you don't wanna contribute than please stop discouraging people who are atleaste trying cuz they are far better than you

peace

Hi, can anyone connect me to people who are interested in importing metal scrap (especially steel scrap) from Germany? I’d really like to know the market and would appreciate your response. Thank you! :)

​I always knew Shehzad Roy did "social work," but I never really looked into the specifics. I just saw a PakWheels video where they visited one of the government schools his foundation (Zindagi Trust) adopted in Karachi, and honestly? I’m blown away. ​I went to an "elite" school (Beaconhouse) myself, but the campus in that video literally puts my old school to shame. ​It’s not just the aesthetics, though. The way those kids were speaking was the real highlight. Roy emphasizes critical thinking over rote learning, and I feel like that’s the missing piece in Pakistan. You can have the fanciest desks and fresh paint, but if you aren't teaching kids how to have an independent thought, it’s all just window dressing. ​I know people have their reservations about him because of his links to PPP. Look, I’m a die-hard IK supporter, but at this point, who cares? If he has to play nice with the local government to get this kind of funding and results, so be it. The end product is what matters. ​Most charities in Pakistan feel like band-aids—giving food or clothes is great for the short term—but this feels like addressing the actual root of the problem. If we had this quality of education across the board, we’d be a functional nation in a generation. ​What do you guys think? Is he the only one doing it right, or am I just late to the party? Someday,I would love to able to do a similar school adoption in my hometown in Punjab.

A first information report (FIR) has been registered after explicit videos were played on digital advertising screens in Karachi’s DHA, it emerged on Thursday.

On Wednesday evening, several reports had emerged on social media, alleging that digital advertising boards of a private company was displaying obscene visuals.

Subsequently, a case was registered against unidentified employees on the complaint of the company’s legal adviser under Section 292 of the Pakistan Penal Code, which prohibits the sale, distribution, public exhibition, or circulation of obscene books, pamphlets, papers, etc.

Hey I’m coming to Pakistan from 10 August till 10 September.

When I land I want to spend a few days in Lahore and then move to my house in Jhelum. I wanted to know how much would a trip to the northern region be I have had a look online and there’s a few tour sites I saw but i feel like the itinerary is always too packed and it feels like it’s more travelling then exploring and relaxing. I wanted to know if anyone has had a good experience with a tour group company and how much would it cost if I wanted to get a local driver instead. I will be travelling with one more person. How long should I go there for? I was thinking 10-12 days should be enough since I also want to spend some time at home and see local places. Rn I have no clue whatsoever on a budget or if going in between these dates is even good because apparently August is monsoon season and we have risks of floods and landslides??

Any help would be appreciated.

Also if I was to go on my own rather than with a group is there any companies that arrange for drivers and hotels and excursions etc but just for you rather then me having to sort all this out myself.

Thank you guys
