Prayer: the light of heaven and Earth

* This is an entry for the June Blog of the Month Competition

 Prayer: the best gift which the creator has bestowed upon His creation. The most alluring thing about prayer is that everyone is this world prays. Whether  you call Him Buddha, God or Bhagwan; He answers everyone.
Prayer has a special importance in a Muslim's life as prayer is the most powerful weapon for a Muslim. Whenever we are distressed or disappointed we pray because we know that He is the listener of hearts. No matter we pray by opening our hands or placing our heads on grounds, it consoles us. Prayers can turn the most hopeless situations of our lives to most beautiful situations. Prayers can make the impossible things happen but who prays ought to have a strong faith. The prayer of Ibrahim(A.S) made the fire cold; the prayer of Hazrat Hajira made the water spring out, the prayer of Musa(A.S) made pharaoh drowned up in the sea, and the prayer of P.B.U.H made Muslims victors despite of their little strength.
Allah says "I hear and answer the prayer of the suppliant".
Prayer can do miracles .It can even change destiny.
Without prayer, life might be meaningless as it connects the creator with His creation.
Prayer: the light of heaven and earth.

USMLE stands for United States Medical Licensing Examination. In order to practice in the U.S., all medical students whether IMGs (international medical graduates) or AMGs (American Medical Graduates) have to give this series of exams. Only then does an international medical graduate become ECFMG certified and legally allowed to practice in the United States. ( ECFMG stands for educational commission for foreign medical students. ECFMG acts as the registration and score-reporting agency for the USMLE for foreign medical students/graduates, or in short, it acts as the designated Dean's office for International Medical Graduates in contrast to the American Medical Graduates). It conducts three examinations: Step 1, Step 2CK, Step 2CS. The ECFMG certificate is issued to a physician if he or she passes the above the three exams within a time period of seven years.) The Following elements are essential in order to secure a residency in the US: Scores Step 1

آ دکھاؤں تجھے چیخوں کا خاموشی سے نکلنا، پھر مر جانا۔۔                                                                           زندگی میں جہاں خوشیوں پر رقص ہوتا ہے، وہیں غم و ماتم کا عکس بھی ہوتا ہے، آسانیاں آتیں ہیں مگر مشکلات کے ساتھ۔۔ بعض دفعہ مشکل  نہیں لگتا خود کو درد سے نکال لینا، اذیتوں کے سمندر کی گہرائی میں ڈوب کر کنارے تک ابھرنا اور یہ ثابت کر دینا کہ اگر درد میں دم ہے تو ہم بھی کم نہیں۔۔ مگر ہاں ہر بار، ہر جگہ، ہر کسی کے ساتھ ایسا نہیں ہوتا، جب درد انسان کو کرچی کرچی کردینا چاہے اور سمیٹنے کو شیشہ گر بھی نہ ہو کہ کرچیاں ہی سمیٹ لے، جب ماضی، کسی کے حال اور مستقبل کو اس طرح گھیر لے کہ جینا اور مرنا ایک سا ہو جائے، جب وقت کے جزیرے پر کھڑی، سفید خوبصورت گھوڑے پر آنے والے شہزادے کی منتظر شہزادیاں  مایوسی کی دلدل میں دم توڑنے لگیں، تب درد ، درد نہیں رہتا، "چیخ" بن کر  نکلتا ہے،  گونجتا ہے ، دھاڑتا ہے، سننے والوں کے دلوں کو لرزاتا ہے، دلوں کو موم کرتا ہے  اور پھر کہیں فضاؤں میں تحلیل ہوجاتا ہے۔۔ ایسا درد تو  کسی "بلند چیخ " کا لبادہ اوڑھے راستوں کو ف

Al-Baqqarah, Verse 222

I am cold and passive. Like a stagnant blue lake sleeping in the arms of green mountains.  And you burn in an awfully beautiful fire. Like those mad sea waves dance to grapple moonlight.  Every morning, I see you touch your T-shirts and caress your red-dyed hair, with an endless emptiness in your eyes; in front of the mirror.  Whenever any song of yours goes popular, you don't sleep for many nights.  I remember when you removed away that purple piece of cloth from your head, you burnt in fever for several days.  Whenever you stay up partying and return late, I know that you check into my room and stand here for minutes.  Whenever you test your sound system before performing, you always reckon the times when we used to go with Mom. When your innocent beautiful recitation of the Quranic verses used to numb people. Then Mom left us. Things changed.  I chose to rush to Him. And hid under His haven.  And you, you chose a different path.   The path of be
