Book name: Reclaim your heart

Written by: Yasmin Mogahed

Review by: Saira Daoud



"This world cannot break you unless you give it permission!"

Theme

I don't know how many times I've read this book and how many times it made me cry. This book has my heart. It fills the heart with light and hope. It's not just a self-help book. It is a manual about the journey of the heart in and out of the ocean of this life. It is about how to keep your heart from sinking to the depth of that ocean and what to do when it does? How to get back our heart from this World? It is about why do people have to leave each other? Because world is temporary. Nothing remains forever. Here everything is temporary. The book teaches us when we lose something we can still be thankful for other things. Because in every bad situation, there is something to be grateful for. This book teaches MUSLIM WOMEN that they only and only need Allah to give them value not men. Allah creates them to worship himself, to please him, not men. Writer also teaches us about the real faith and trust in Allah, that we should only trust Allah because TAWAKUL is realizing even if you don't have anything, you've Allah. And He is enough!

Sabr and Tawakul

Yasmin teaches us that nothing happens without a purpose. Not even broken hearts. Not even pain. That broken heart and pain are lessons and signs for us. They are warnings that something is wrong and we need to change. Hardships purify our soul and bring us back to Allah. Sabr and Tawakul are keys to get through hardships.

Salah and Quran

We all know that Salah is important. Quran is important. Yasmin tells us  that why Salah and Quran are important? She tells us about the real soul of Salah and Quran. Why Allah sent us in this dunya? This book brings us back to our real purpose of life, our relationship with our creator, Allah!
It's a must read. Everyone needs to read this book.

Drama Serial: Kahin Deep Jalay Review by: Qursam Fatima  Novel based plays are always more exciting to watch. Viewers become more judgemental while watching such plays. Kahin Deep Jalay is also a novel based serial which is pen down by very talented Qaisera Hayat and beautifully directed by Saima Waseem under the banner of 7th Sky entertainment. The story revolves around three different families. The first is a happy family, the second is in a miserable state while the third family is often in conflict with each other. The first family is of Rida, the second is from Zeeshan who lost most of their wealth while the third family is of Shamila. Shamila, the most hatred and complex character!

She is also an apple of her mother's eye. They all love her to every extent. Her innocen...

Drama: Jo Tu Chahay Review by: Qursam Fatima  Verily, His Command, when He intends a thing, is only that He says to it, “Be!” – and it is! (36:82) Some plays are made on the social side and some highlight the reformation. Some stories are written romantically, while in some stories the religious aspect is written. Religious and spiritual aspects are rarely highlighted in our drama industry. Dramas that are not only seen but also understood are nothing short of a blessing. Those writers are in fact blessing who pen down such unusual topics. Jo Tu Chahay is also one such drama whose story is simple yet deep. It is beautifully written by Alif Allah aur Insan acclaimed writer Qaisera Hayat and directed by very talented Ilyas Kashmiri under the banner of MD Productions . This serial is for viewers of all ages as it revolves around a family. The focal point of this serial is quranic verse "Kun Faya Kun". This story revolves around an orphan and a poor girl who is wai...

|News Review by Quratulain| |Student Union|

Student Union By: Quratulain Here are my two cents on student unions. Why not? Usually two reasons are given: Ø   It’s a distraction. Ø   And these Unions are violent. So here is the impact of no unions. Politics is a distraction for students. They should focus on study alone, it’s not the business of workers, and they should work day to day and never learn how to speak for their rights. So here is what happens. Politics becomes the slang. The one and only place from where future leaders come is “Jati Umra and Bhutto house.” Student unions are a way to nurture future leadership. About the violence part, in public universities political parties have their own groups. They are Operating freely. Do they become violent? Yes. Have you seen any effort to abolish their hold from institution? No. Because, it’s not about violence, it’s about threat they pose to status quo. In Pakistan, politics is the privilege of the super privileged. You want to be a y...
