10 Principles for a peaceful life for all Pakistani's

---

1. Do Not Interfere In Others' Business Unless Asked.

Most of us create our own problems by interfering too often in others' affairs. We do so because somehow we have convinced ourselves that our way is the best way, our logic is the perfect logic and those who do not conform to our thinking must be criticized and steered to the right direction, i.e. our direction. This thinking denies the existence of individuality and consequently undermines the Intelligence and Creativity that is only attributed to God. God has created each one of us in a unique way. No two human beings can think or act in exactly the same way. All men or women act the way they do because Allah has made each one of us different, with different personalities. Be patient with one another, and mind your own business and you will keep your peace.

2. Forgive And Forget:

This is the most powerful aid to peace of mind, but also challenging to acheive. We often develop ill feelings inside our heart for the person who insult us or harm us. We nurture grievances resulting in loss of sleep, development of stomach ulcers, and high blood pressure. We further aggravate stress in ourselves by remembering, and reminding ourselves of the very persons that caused us harm. Get over this bad habit. Life is too short to waste in such trifles. Forgive, forget, and march on. Love flourishes in giving and forgiving.

3. Do Not Crave For Recognition:

This world is full of selfish people. They seldom praise anybody without selfish motives. They may praise you today because you are in power, but no sooner than you are powerless; they will forget your achievement and will start finding faults in you. Why do you wish to kill yourself in striving for their recognition? Do your duties ethically and sincerely, and only seek the pleasure of Allah through salah and ibaadah.

4. Do Not Be Jealous:

We all have experienced how jealousy can disturb our peace of mind. You know that you work harder than your colleagues in the office, but sometimes they get promotions; you do not. You started a business several years ago, but you are not as successful as your neighbour whose business is only a one year old. There are several examples like these in everyday life. Should you be jealous? No. Remember, a person's life is shaped by their destiny, which becomes their reality. If you are destined to be rich, nothing in the world can stop you. And if you are destined to be poor, then no matter what you do, you will only be what you are destined to be. Nothing will be gained by blaming others for your misfortune. Jealousy will not get you anywhere; it will only take away your peace of mind.

5. Change Yourself:

If you try to change the environment single-handedly, the chances are you will fail. Instead, change yourself to suit your environment. As you do this, even the environment, which has been unfriendly to you, will mysteriously change and seem congenial and harmonious.

6. Endure What Cannot Be Cured:

Every day we face numerous inconveniences, ailments, irritations, and accidents that are beyond our control. If we cannot control them or change them, we must learn to put up with these things. We must learn to endure them cheerfully. Believe in yourself and you will gain in terms of patience, inner strength and will power.

7. Do Not Bite Off More Than You Can Chew:

We often tend to take more responsibilities than we are capable of. This is done to satisfy our ego. Know your limitations. Why take on additional loads that may create more worries? You cannot gain peace of mind by expanding your external activities. Reduce your material engagements and spend time in prayer, and introspection. It will prevent you from thinking of matters that upset you. An uncluttered mind is a peaceful mind..

8. Make Regular Dhikr:

Dhikr, the rememberance of Allah, calms the mind and gets rid of disturbing thoughts. Try it yourself. If you do tasbih, dhikr, whenever you are free, your mind will be at peace during the day. Your mind will not be easily disturbed as it was before.You may think that this will interfere with your daily work. On the contrary, this will increase your efficiency and you will be able to produce better results in less time.

9. Never Leave The Mind Vacant:

An empty mind is the devil's workshop. Keep your mind occupied in something positive, something worthwhile and negative thoughts will not plague your mind. Actively follow a hobby, something that holds your interest. You must decide what you value more: money or peace of mind. Your hobby, like social work or religious work, may not always earn you more money, but you will have a sense of fulfillment and achievement. Even when you are resting physically, occupy yourself in healthy reading or mental chanting of God's name.

10. Do Not Procrastinate And Never Regret:

Do not waste time in protracted wondering, " Should I or shouldn't I?" You can never plan enough because you can never fully anticipate all future happenings. Value your time and do the things that need to be done now. It does not matter if you fail the first time, so long as you don't leave it for tomorrow. You can learn from your mistakes and succeed the next time. Sitting back and worrying will lead to nothing. DO NOT REGRET. Whatever happened was destined to happen. Why cry over spilt milk?

Here is NOC letter

No more NOC for KSA?
Dear KSA residents,
Please read attached letter issed by MOFA -KSA and share your views. I heard that NOC is no more required to re-enter Saudi Arabia if you went back Pakistan on final exit
P.S: Admin plz keep this post here for some time.

Ejaz replied on Sunday, May 31, 2009 12:11 AM PST

Dear Badar,

It is so pleasing............I hope it is true. Actually, MOFA has issued this letter since long time but the Saudi Embassy at Islamabad(and most probably our own Pakistani Brothers there in Embassy) were not accpting this logic and they were of the view that Either you need an NOC or wait for at least three Years for new visa even you have come on Proper Exit.

For Saudi Counsulate in Karachi, the same duration was one year. If anybody from ISLAMABAD can check with Saudi Embassy, and update here at the Forum, it will be a great help to our Pakistani Brothers.

Thank you Badar Sb for this information.

Ejaz replied on Sunday, May 31, 2009 12:23 AM PST

The Phone number of Saudi Counsulate in Karachi is : +
The Phone number of saudi Embassy in Islamabad is: +

Old Reader replied on Sunday, May 31, 2009 11:11 AM PST

Its really great to hear such news. Can some brother from Karachi and Islamabad can confirm this by calling saudi consulate.

I'll be very thankful to him.

KM replied on Sunday, May 31, 2009 01:47 PM PST

I have seen this memo one month ago, I tried to contact saudi counsulate but no one picks up the phone. I called sky link Rawalpindi, according to them noc not required every where else but in Pakistan it is requird '' special treatment for pakistanis''. From India people do not require noc many months back.

Dear Brothers,

I am working in Saudi Arabia for last 9 years. It will be a miracle if you can get a clear answer in Black & White from Saudi Embassy. Their Government Offices are no more different than our Govt. Depts. in Pakistan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
badar replied on Monday, June 1, 2009 12:51 AM PST

I come to know from our recruitmnet agent in lahore that Saudi counsulate in karachi is not asking for NOC in this case but Islambad saudi counsulate is still asking NOC. I agree with Mr Ejaz that our PAK friends are experts in creating problems for our own country men.
It is also true that people are comming freely from INDIA without NOC since long back. Better to attach copy of this letter at the time of VISA process.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Milo replied on Monday, June 1, 2009 12:47 PM PST

What I know is that this restriction had been removed in the new Saudi Labor Law (April 2006) but unfortunately Saudi Embassy Pakistan is not accepting it and they are still asking NOC.
It was the same case with Indians but since last year they are coming back to Saudia without any delay on the same passport (in some cases they are also facing issues).

It is also very starnge thing that visas (application) rejected by Saudi Embassy Islamabad were accepted and stamped in Karachi.
Even I have heard that there are some agents in Karachi who have the links for visa stamping on the same passport without NOC and without any delay (definitely with GOOOD charges).

Important Management lesson

---

(Former President of India APJ Abdul Kalam at Wharton India Economic forum , Philadelphia , March 22,2008)

Question: Could you give an example, from your own experience, of how leaders should manage failure?

Kalam: Let me tell you about my experience. In 1973 I became the project director of India 's satellite launch vehicle program, commonly called the SLV-3. Our goal was to put India 's 'Rohini' satellite into orbit by 1980. I was given funds and human resources -- but was told clearly that by 1980 we had to launch the satellite into space. Thousands of people worked together in scientific and technical teams towards that goal.


By 1979 -- I think the month was August -- we thought we were ready. As the project director, I went to the control center for the launch. At four minutes before the satellite launch, the computer began to go through the checklist of items that needed to be checked. One minute later, the computer program put the launch on hold; the display showed that some control components were not in order. My experts -- I had four or five of them with me -- told me not to worry; they had done their calculations and there was enough reserve fuel. So I bypassed the computer, switched to manual mode, and launched the rocket. In the first stage, everything worked fine. In the second stage, a problem developed. Instead of the satellite going into orbit, the whole rocket system plunged into the Bay of Bengal . It was a big failure.


That day, the chairman of the Indian Space Research Organization, Prof. Satish D hawan, had called a press conference. The launch was at 7:00 am, and the press conference -- where journalists from around the world were present -- was at 7:45 am at ISRO's satellite launch range in Sriharikota [in Andhra Pradesh in southern India ]. Prof. Dhawan, the leader of the organization, conducted the press conference himself. He took responsibility for the failure -- he said that the team had worked very hard, but that it needed more technological support. He assured the media that in another year, the team would definitely succeed. Now, I was the project director, and it was my failure, but instead, he took responsibility for the failure as chairman of the organization.


The next year, in July 1980, we tried again to launch the satellite -- and this time we succeeded. The whole nation was jubilant. Again, there was a press conference. Prof. Dhawan called me aside and told me, 'You conduct the press conference today.'

I learned a very important lesson that day. When failure occurred, the leader of the organization owned that failure. When success came, he gave it to his team. The best management lesson I have learned did not come to me from reading a book; it came from that experience.

Final Notice from Ministry of Interior employees co-operative housing society (MIECHS)

Leader Of Our Nation

---

If we look at the struggle of Pakistan Movement. It was great movement many life’s have gone. Yong Muslims sister and many others paid the price of this homeland.
After sixty years on man who is having now UK Nationality. Start blaming our national Leaders & those who died for this country.
MQM Quaid has said again that there was a confusion in the minds our National Leader at the Creation time of Pakistan .(Allama Iqbal.Quaid-e-Azam and many others.)

Actually it took tens and hundreds years for our forefather to decide that Muslims of India should have separate homeland.
In 1940 at Lahore there was a unanimous resolution for separate country for Muslims of India.
Actually Altaif Hussain is confused just to gain more popularity & come more closer to Western world and Indian lobby he is raising these types of points.
Pakistan is great country and Inshallah it will become more stronger in coming time.
Problems are in every country No country is problem free. We are facing problem but we will come out of this face.

WE ARE PROUD TO BE PAKISTANI.
WE SALUTE THE PEOPLE WHO GAVE THEIR PRECIOUS LIF’S FOR THIS COUNTRY & WE PRAY FOR THEM.
