I indulge in reading and writing and poetry to keep me sane. Otherwise, my state is summed up by Umar Khayyam`s words:

Na din u na duniya u na umid i behisht daaram...


Random Thoughts: My three main interests are Literature, Beauty, and Religion--a potent combination! I am a bit of a snob and an aesthete.....

Truth is Beauty--Beauty Truth (Keats)
Verily God is Beautiful and He loveth beauty (hadith)

The glare of Western sciences could not confuse my vision,
For the dust of Medinah and Najaf is the collyrium of my eyes.


Why am I called 'naqshbandi'? Because I am a disciple [mureed] of the Saint of The Saint of the Seven Continents,
Mawlana Shaykh Sayyid Nazim Adil al Naqshbandi al Haqqani al Qibrisi
.
He is the Master of Saints and the Saint of Masters! He is still alive in his 87th year watching spiritually over the Community of his lofty Ancestor our Leige-lord and Master Sayyidina Muhammad, Rasul Allah, The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him! His Khalifa is Shaykh Hisham Kabbani...



Khaira na kar saka mujhe jalwa e danish e Farang
Surma hai meri aankh ka khaak e Madina o Najaf (Iqbal)





Favorite Reading: Hadaiq e Bakhshish, LOTR, Lolita, Spring Snow, Atomised...
Favorite Writers: Imam Ahmad Rida Khan, Rumi, Iqbal, Tolkien, Nabokov, Keats, Houellebecq
