Exactly a year ago tonight i received a phone call which changed my life for ever. It was about my brother Arshad Sharifs assassination in Kenya. Having been in the news business for over 23 years this was a story which was the most difficult one to break , should i tell the world first or his family.Arshad was a brother and a friend yet after his assasination a full fledge propaganda campaign was launched against me. At first for a couple of days i was taken aback by this baseless campaign but then i asked myself what would have Arshad done if he was in my place , i remembered his words “ bhai we are here to make this world a better place and we shall do what we were created for “. Till date Still some stooges carry this propaganda but i don't care. In the field of investigative journalism he was the best there is and ever will be. Love u my brother Allah tumharay darjaat buland karay..im sure ur in a better place dont worry about the kids they are my responsibility and are well taken care of.
Till we meet again ❤️
Hiding pain under a smile is not easy. It can be one of the hardest things to do. You do it when you care about others more than you do for yourself. But remember, a smile can hide so much.. fear, pain, sadness, tears. But they reflect one main thing. Strength.
I offer my condolences to #SalmanIqbal and his family for the unexpected loss of their daughter, Samaya Salman.
May Allah grant them the fortitude to endure this sorrow, and may Samaya find eternal tranquility in Jannah.
Aameen.

There are no words to express the grief I felt when I learned about Salman Iqbal’s daughter, Samaya Salman’s sudden passing away at a young age. May Allah provide strength to Salman Iqbal and his family to bear her loss! To Allah we belong and to Allah we shall return. May Allah be merciful to the departed soul and give her place in Jannah!
Today i buried my life my little angel who made me a father for the first time . You were the first person to call me Papa. You were special to all of us, you were Sumaiya (PURE) .As i write this message I cant stop my tears , i pray no one has to ever go through this, never give shoulder to his own child and than burry them . Parents are suppose to leave on their kids shoulders not the other way. May Allah give a huge piece of jannah to my beloved Summaiya. Mama and papa wish you were here my Jaan we wish we could hold u again we wish we could talk to u again. I would give my life to have you back. The house is empty without you, no one can take your place . The only thing which gives us sabr is when we say Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un ( We belong to Allah, and to Him we return ) and i know you will hold our hands and lead us to heaven , we know you are in a better place my love. Mama and papa will love u forever. Everyone Please pray for my little angel, and thank you for all those who prayed for her and messaged us and condoled with us in this toughest time.

Mistakes, regrets and failures are all part of life. Do yourself a favour and don’t dwell on them. Learn the lessons they’re meant to teach you and move on. Life’s too short to be crying over what didn’t work out. The Almighty’s giving you another opportunity. Don’t waste it.
You cannot control other people. You can’t force them to do what they don’t want to do. The only person you can control is you. So don’t let their behaviour & what they do upset you. Your worrying, obsessing, venting etc, has zero impact on them. It only hurts you.
Don’t underestimate the little things you do for others. No matter how small the act, it will come back to you eventually. The appreciation and thank you may be delayed for ages but that’s ok because your reward is truly with the Almighty. So do things out of love not obligation.
The Almighty never told us that this life would be all sunshine and rainbows. We’re here to be tested. The world will bring you down to your knees often. It will keep you there if you allow it. Don’t. Get right up. Keep going the way He has prescribed. Remain steadfast.
For every pain you endure,
For every fear that grips your heart,
For every worry that keeps you awake,
For every loss that you grieve over,
For anything & everything that you can’t handle,
Leave it to the Lord of the Worlds.
He’s the best disposer of our affairs.
