Congratulations Imran and Reham...


My Heartiest Congratulations & Prayers for Imran Khan and his wife Reham on their marriage, and to all the couples who tied the knot recently. May you all live in bliss, harmony and prosperity together.


When I wrote my last post on PTI's dharna I had no idea that my next one will be on the marriage of PTI's Chairman Imran Khan with Reham Khan, it was just a matter of days that entire situation has changed dramatically.

When the news started to pour in about Imran Khan’s marriage I was a bit uncomfortable because I didn’t like the way either the media or PTI/ Imran Khan handled the situation. All of a sudden a lady’s picture was splashing on every channel with Indian songs playing in the background. (The concept of playing Indian wedding songs on Pakistani news channels is beyond the reach of my humble thinking.)

And finally after a lot of chaos we saw the grand finale of this event, when the newly wedded couple posed in front of the camera. A sense of relief and sanity prevailed over the confused minds of millions in Pakistan and around the world. 

I watched Mr. and Mrs. Khan’s luncheon and first interview after their marriage, and honestly it all seemed quite normal. It was just two matured people who decided to become life partners, to become a strong support system for each other and that’s all about it! No big deal.

I have no idea why everyone is making such a fuss about it, of course the emotional disturbance of many ladies on this wedding is quite obvious but why on earth are men jealous. This just doesn’t make any sense.

Everywhere from TV channels to social media everyone is trying their best to find faults in this marriage. If they couldn’t criticize Imran Khan then their best victim is Reham. God knows from which sources people are investigating and digging up her past and coming with twisted information.

Honestly, this is very cheap and low, and as Muslims we all know that in Quran Allah has shown His extreme dislike and called all acts of slander, gossip and maligning as worst acts committed by any Muslim.

It is wise for all the curious souls to simply accept some truths: Yes, Imran is still very handsome in his 60's. Yes, he is on good terms with his ex-wife. Yes, his ex-wife sent her best wishes for his new marriage. Yes, he re-married at the age of 60. Yes, his new wife is also gorgeous (Masha Allah). Yes, they look absolutely magnificent together. Yes, she has kindheartedly accepted his children (her step-children) and vice versa. Yes, he is a matured guy who proposed her because he thinks that she is a great Mom.

In times when our country is going through challenges, we need to focus all our energies in praying for the safe & prosperous Pakistan rather unnecessarily worrying about others.

With all my best wishes to all the newlyweds.

Sonya Syed (Day 512)

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS): What It Actually Feels Like

Wow! It feels nice to be back to my favourite place in the world, my blog, my love. But today it seems that the world has rotated 360 degrees. As I was trying to figure out how to tap into this new world order I thought the best way is to ask my Higher Power to guide me through. And what a better way to do that, other than recite a prayer ‘Dua Istikhara’ a supplication used by Muslims to seek guidance from Allah before making a decision. If we just read the translation of this supplication: “O Allah, I seek guidance from Your knowledge and power and ask You from Your great bounty. Surely, you can do it, and I am not. You know, and I do not, and You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter is good for me in my religion, life, and end, then decree it for me, make it easy, and bless it for me. But if You know that this matter is bad for me, in my religion, my existence, and my end, then turn it away from me and turn me away from it, and decree for me what is g...

3 January 2019

After fighting with an alien cat in my dream, I am awake at 1.30 am. It all is followed by a futile effort of building a sleep pattern of 9.30 pm to 6 am. Alas, not all wishes come true at once. No problem I will keep on working. Being a really smart gal I have messed up with my sleep-wake cycle long ago, and today when I accidentally opened Rujuta Diwekar’s video on cortisol on my facebook page- I realized what has been going on with me.  For all of you who are not aware that I am a distant relative of Kareena Kapoor Khan and Rujuta is the link who tied  Kareena and me  together. You all must be wondering why have I never discussed this earlier, why I took so long to disclose my bond with Kareena. Let me explain.   Rujuta Diwekar is a God’s blessing for all the fools like me who for some stranger reason believe(ed) that going on USA or UK-based diet programs would make us patla (thin/ lean). It was Rujuta’s eating desi ghee and daal sabzi ch...

The Telecom Bill That Slipped Through While Pakistan Looked Elsewhere

While we were all mourning the petrol price hikes and drowning in the chaos of inflation, IT Minister Shaza Fatima Khawaja quietly tabled the Pakistan Telecommunication (Re-organisation) (Amendment) Bill 2026. Most of us didn't even notice. The bill amended the 1996 Pakistan Telecommunication (Re-Organization) Act. It redefined certain terms and replaced Section 27A on Right of Way with a new Section 27B. What sounds like routine legislative work is anything but ordinary. This bill grants state-backed authorization to telecom companies to take over any private property or land and install 5G infrastructure including mobile towers and fiber-optic networks wherever they please. No consent required. No negotiation. Just entry and installation. The astonishing reality is that this draconian bill which grossly violates the fundamental rights of Pakistanis was approved by majority vote in the National Assembly on June 11, 2026. Not a single member objected. Nobody raised their voic...
