I pen these thoughts at a heavy time. The present problem floating around in the air, quite literally, isn’t the cause for concern. Humanity has faced disease much more than war or politics; it isn’t anything new. What is new though is the fact that each and every one of us has become more narcissistic rather than humble with the information of the world on our finger tips and that’s disturbing. That’s what’s getting us killed.

Just two days ago, a friend of mine lost both his parents to the Corvid-19 virus. His mother had a pre-existing condition but his father was in good health; in the end it was the same. What could I say to him? What could I do? Nothing. He didn’t even get to see them for the last time; just a last glimpse from a ventilator and the plastic bags. It’s the reality of these unsaid goodbyes that’s haunting. I can only share his pain.

Yet when I see that Khaadi was overwhelmed because I suppose it’s a necessity? When I see people not wearing masks and brush this off. When I see popular conspiracy theories used to explain away the danger- the most popular one being: it’s all a ruse for [Insert reason here: politics, population control, regional conspiracy etc.,] I get seriously peeved because it’s followed by, ‘No one I know of is suffering from it!’ Are we seriously asking for this? Instead of considering ourselves fortunate; we are tempting fate?

I’ve been saying it since the start of this pandemic: everything else needs to be placed on hold right now. We should focus on helping each other; if we’re divided by everything then biology appears to unite us because the virus isn’t discriminating who it’s infecting.

Please, stay home; just because we want the virus to be gone doesn’t change anything. Please, stick to social distancing when you’ve to go out, if you absolutely must. Please, practice sanitation of everything just like we were doing it before. Stay safe!

I hope this convinces people before something comes up which leaves no choice. Thank you.

Alot of people took this as a joke including some of my friends and relatives. We have lost family members and friends and some were lucky enough to survive after a long ordeal.

UK relaxed restrictions the other day and i took an undercover drive around to see whats up and the streets were full and busy like its all normal. They still haven't learnt anything yet.

I haven't really left the house since march as i have vulnerable elders at home. I will continue to chill until this crap blows over rather then go out and bring home nasty surprise. Just cant be careful enough as opposed to living a life of regret.

PakBrother mine,

I am sorry to hear about the tragic loss of your friend's parents... gripping such events are.... I did try to inject Humanity into this 'mud slinging' match fest...but obviously ..one poisonous post killed that thread...

Regardless, in all events we must at least seek Humnaity within and without.... although Humanity Quotient has decreased in this Timeframe.... Spirit of Time..perhaps...

Stay safe!

My sincere condolences, bhai.

One of my distant relatives succumbed to COVID-19 in USA some days ago. He was 50 years old and a father.

Please take care of yourself and your family. Same advice for others.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un

we are passing through the last ten days of ramzan. the month of blessings. all of us who are alive must utilize it in the best possible way. its sad to hear news of someone's death but death is a reality. some will die today others will die tomorrow. no body is here to stay. this world is created to break our hearts. continuous struggle. this epidemic has adversely affected almost all the human beings but it also has jolted our hearts, minds and souls so that we may come back on track. the path which majority of us had forgotten.

Absolutely, Imran bahi, don't know what our power players are up to. Thank you for your kind words.

It has nothing to do with China, brother, this is a natural thing and it's a human problem. Thank you for your video and your kind words. Please, stay safe as well.

Thank you China:( People losing they loved ones.

Try to boost your immunity in these uncertain times. Avoid gluten and dairy during these covid times and your immunity will become stronger for sure.
Good watch:

A week ago my Saudi friend lost his dad and grandmother to Covid 19. Only he was the one who couldn't sit at home and he brought it to his family. This is some real danger which unfortunately people are not taking seriously just because they are not infected yet.

Please pass my condolences to your friend for his loss. In troubled times such as these wherein the month of mercy which used to be resplendent with joy and the message of brotherhood has now been replaced with the fear of losing our loved ones.

Stay safe, and in this holy month pray to the almighty to deliver us to his Rehmat
