Zarvan she is looking through greeting cards from well wishers across the world. Many non-muslims as well.

Now I have seen and heard it all!

My mom during dinner says, "Do you know of the Malala girl. Very brave girl. Hope she gets well soon." And then explains to me what all the story about it is. And I had to listen to the whole story again.

There is only one outstanding organization that deserves the Peace Prize under the terms it was originally meant: the Israel Defense Forces, as their operations keep the peace and prevent another genocide and large-scale mideast war. T

Must be joking right

Her diary is being translated into languages that she probably didn't even know to exist. And her spirit is being celebrated in countries that she probably never heard about. It is very rarely that someone becomes an "immortal heir of universal praise."

Nations unborn [her] mighty name shall sound,
And worlds applaud that must not yet be found!
O may some spark of [her] celestial fire
The last, the meanest of [her] sons inspire!


Malala Yousafzai's diary, now in Malayalam | NDTV.com

Thiruvananthapuram: Seeking to express solidarity with Malala Yousafzai, the teenage rights activist who was shot in her head by the Taliban for advocating girls' education, a Kerala-based publishing house has brought out a Malayalam version of her much popular diary.

Kozhikode-based book-house 'Insight Publica' has published the translated version of the diary entries, which appeared in the BBC news website, to express solidarity with Malala, who is currently under treatment at a hospital in Birmingham after being shot on October 9.

Popularly known as the Anne Frank of Pakistan, Malala reported the problems under Taliban rule for BBC from 2009 under the pseudo name "Gul Makai'. Her reports, in the form of the diary, invited the wrath of the orthodox community especially Taliban. She was shot in the head and neck while returning home from school last month.

Titled "Malala Yousafzai: Oru Pakistani School Vidyarthiniyude Jeevitha Kurippukal (Malala Yousafzai: The Diary of a Pakistani School Girl), the book contents collection of her diary entries, interviews and the script of a documentary.

According to V P Sumesh, editor of Insight Publica, the book has evoked good response from readers especially from teenage girls.

"Actually we did not plan the book in such a big manner. We considered it just an attempt to express solidarity with a teenage girl who fought against the autocratic Talibans. But, the response is overwhelming especially those from girls," Sumesh told PTI.

He said the book would help local people who have no access to internet to have a better understanding of the fight and
contributions of Malala, an ordinary school-goer hailing from Swat Valley in Pakistan.

"With a view to taking the book to more readers, we are planning to distribute the book through schools," he said.

UN Malala Day events held in 100 countries on November 10 - Tehran Times

About 100 countries have commemorated United Nations Malala Day to honor 14-year-old Pakistani peace activist Malala Yousafzai.


On Saturday, events were held in Pakistan, Afghanistan, India, the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia, Mexico, Sierra Leone, and many other countries.



Earlier this week, the United Nations declared November 10 Malala Day in honor of the Pakistani human rights campaigner and peace activist, who was shot in the head by the Taliban last month in northern Pakistan.



On October 9, Malala Yousafzai was shot by Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants in the town of Mingora for speaking out against the fanatics and promoting education for girls and women in her home region, the Swat Valley of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.



“This Saturday (November 10th) will see Malala Day, a global event to show the world that people of all creeds, all sexes, all backgrounds, and all countries stand behind Malala,” former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who is UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon’s Special Envoy for Global Education, said on Friday.



“We are Malala -- this is Malala day; the world to walk in the footsteps of this girl of courage. Malala Yousafzai has become a global icon of hope, an international symbol of courage, a schoolgirl who has won the hearts of millions through her bravery,” Brown stated.



“Malala’s dream is a Pakistan where she, her friends and future generations of girls could attend school, walk freely into a classroom, learn and reach their full potential,” he added.



Over one million people around the world have signed petitions calling on Islamabad to pay stipends to families who put their girls in school in honor of Malala.



"Malala's dreams represent what is best about Pakistan," Brown said as he presented the petitions to Pakistani President Ali Asif Zardari on Friday in Islamabad.



Malala is recovering in Britain. She was flown to Britain on October 15 for specialist care at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham after Pakistani doctors said she needed treatment for a damaged skull and “intensive neuro-rehabilitation.”



Over the past month, tens of thousands of people in Pakistan, the United States, and Britain have held demonstrations and prayer vigils to express their support for Malala and the efforts to provide universal education for women and girls.



In 2008 and 2009, the Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan banned female education in the Swat Valley, depriving more than 40,000 girls of education. TTP militants destroyed hundreds of schools in the valley during a campaign of violence over the course of the two years, which led to a dramatic decline in the number of girls enrolled in schools in the region.

In 2009, Malala Yousafzai rose to fame for writing about life in the Swat Valley under the TTP. She later received Pakistan’s National Peace Award for bravery and was also nominated for an international children's peace award.

Mashallah; Thanks for sharing bro.


She looks sedated but still receptive and alert to her surroundings. Would be a great thing to see her address her sisters and brothers in the Motherland, once she is 100% well and recovered.

(CNN) -- Malala Yousufzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl activist who was shot in the head by the Taliban, has expressed gratitude to the people around the world who have supported her as she recovers from the traumatic attack.
"Thank you so much for the outpouring of love and support," Malala said in a message read by Anderson Cooper at the CNN Heroes ceremony in Los Angeles. "I thank the people that supported me without distinguishing religion and color."
She is now at a hospital in Britain, where she was transferred to soon after the assassination attempt in northwestern Pakistan in October. Examinations there revealed that she had suffered no major neurological damage, but she still faces a long struggle to recover from her injuries.

Malala, who for years has been campaigning for girls' right to education in a conservative area of Pakistan, is reading books and walking in the hospital in the city of Birmingham, according to her father, Ziauddin Yousufzai.
Her story generated a huge amount sympathy and support in Pakistan and across the globe.
The Pakistani Taliban have threatened to go after her again, but Malala appears to be undeterred from her campaigning.
"People have actually supported a cause, not an individual," she said in her message. "Let's work together to educate girls around the world."

Her family may not return to Pakistan, as in U.K they no longer have to listen to ISI, getting used by them and then getting shot by them. (a conspiracy theory)

Yeah OK bro.

The **** is wrong with you?

Better used by an Englishmen than a Pakistani.

The girl was shot due to foreign NGO's.


Isn't it obvious by now.

Think about how many kids in KPK have had it worse than her?

So our intelligence agency is out to defame itself.

Yes, this is the kind of logic we need in Pakistan right now.

If she decides to live in UK it will give lot of boost to conspiracy theories and also lessen her support with quite a great margin and even if she would want to do something for her country she wouldn't be able to do it anymore

I personally dont agree with it. To prevent pashtun bashing , i did'nt mention it when she was shot, but the truth is it was most common point of view of people of KPK that ISI/Army is involved in shooting her.

is it? i dont know anything about that

why would the ISI/Army shoot itself in the foot? Whether she was mortally wounded and died or whether she survived -- how do they gain either way?

it was Army medics that saved her life!

What the hell!?

Its the people in the area she lives and attends school who are to blame. Their beliefs that girls should not attend schools made an incubator for this.
