Pakistan has a fort that has never been conquered.
Not once. In 500 years.
Rohtas Fort. Near Jhelum, Punjab. Built in 1541 by Sher Shah Suri after he defeated Mughal Emperor Humayun and sent him into exile.
He built it for one reason. To make sure Humayun never came back.
4 kilometres of walls. 68 bastions. 12 monumental gates. 1,900 battlements. 9,500 stairs. Built on a hillock 300 feet above its surroundings where the Kahan River meets the old invasion route from Afghanistan into Punjab.
Every army that looked at it turned away.
Humayun came back eventually. But not through Rohtas. No one ever breached those walls.
Sher Shah Suri spent the equivalent of millions in the currency of the time building it. Then died before it was completed. His greatest fortress. Built to stop one man. Never once breached by anyone.
UNESCO inscribed it as a World Heritage Site in 1997. Called it an exceptional example of early Muslim military architecture in Central and South Asia. A milestone in the history of fort construction.
And the man who built it did something else while he was at it.
Sher Shah Suri also built the Grand Trunk Road. 1,500 miles from Calcutta to Peshawar. Inns every 12 miles. Shady trees the entire way. Built in the 16th century.
It still exists today.
You know it as the GT Road.
A fort that was never conquered. A road that still carries traffic 500 years later. Both built by the same king in Pakistan.
The world has barely noticed.
Pakistan has always inspired extraordinary things. 🇵🇰

Hajj Before 2000: Journeys of Faith and Reflection
🕋 Hajj Through the Years
From journeys before the digital age to memories etched in faith and sacrifice, Radio Islam hears heartfelt Hajj experiences from Zayboon Motala, Moosa Bhamjee and Mohammed Bhamjee — reflecting on the challenges, lessons and spiritual moments of Hajj before 2000.
How did knowledge of the chemistry of wax production, the chemistry of honey production, and the engineering of the hive all come together within a bee?
Who inspired it with all of that when it never studied in schools?!
How are that knowledge and those traits passed down through offspring, generation after generation?
Is it instinct, or divine ordainment?!
The Great Creator answers you:
“And your Lord inspired the bee…”
And here I ask the supporters of the theory of blind coincidence:
How did the bee’s knowledge of home engineering meet, by coincidence, with the making of wax?
Which one came first in the knowledge contained within the bee’s genes: the wax or the engineering?
Did it first know engineering and then later discover how to manufacture wax inside the organs of its body? Or was it the opposite?
And afterward, how did it come to know how to make honey so that it could place it inside the wax homes?
How did all of this happen by coincidence?
How did the engineering of homes come together with the wax from which the homes are made, together with the honey that the bee places inside those homes?
How did all of this happen purely by chance?!
How did the bee learn engineering, then learn how to make wax so it could use engineering to build wax cells, and then how did it learn how to make honey so it could place it inside the wax cells?
What is this chain of intentional and purposeful processes?
Or did all of this happen merely by coincidence?
According to those people, did everything happen by pure chance?!
If 9 Jewish paramedics were killed ANYWHERE in the world it would be called terrorism.
And we’d never hear the end of it.
Israel slaughtered 9 paramedics in 72 hours, most of which we’ve seen on film, and we only hear their names on Twitter.
“She ran between Safa and Marwah with nothing but faith, tears, and love for her child…
And Allah turned a mother’s struggle into a journey followed by millions in Hajj every single year. 🤍
Sometimes the pain you carry today may become the reason generations remember your faith tomorrow.”
The ease of modern Hajj should not make its impact lighter on our hearts. If the journey requires less hardship from our bodies, then let it demand more honesty from our souls.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez:
“We received a letter today demanding that Lamine Yamal be suspended because he raised the Palestinian flag yesterday during the celebrations of FC Barcelona. I think this is something laughable — asking me to suspend a player simply for raising the Palestinian flag.
I believe FIFA should instead be contacted to prevent you from participating in football because of what you have been doing for more than three years: systematic killing and genocide carried out in the most horrific ways.
Lamine Yamal will be honored, and this flag will become an icon of celebrations in the streets of Spain from today onward.”
Crimes against Iran and Airplane are Shot Down USA:
47 years of economic Sanctions against Iran.
1953: What would Iran look like today if the CIA/MI6 had not overthrown the Democratically Elected Leader and Installed a Dictator: Shah of Iran in 1953 who setup a brutal secret police to torture Iranian citizens. Just so British Petroleum could continue to steal 90% of the Iranian oil revenue!
The USA supported Iraq in the Iran Iraq 8 year war with Money, weapons and CIA/NSA intelligence, but Israel: A major, discreet arms supplier to Tehran, seeking to prevent an Iraqi victory and destroy Iraq's nuclear capabilities
Grok AI answer:
Iran suffered terribly from Iraq's chemical warfare (mustard gas, nerve agents), which violated international norms, and the U.S. bears responsibility for enabling Iraq through intelligence and inaction. Resulting in 200-300 thousand Iranians killed including 20-70 thousand civilians.
How many assignations has Israel used against Iran in the last 20 years.
1988 USS Vincennes shooting down Iran Air Flight 655 was an international scheduled passenger flight from Tehran to Dubai via Bandar Abbas that was shot down on 3 July 1988 by two surface-to-air missiles fired by USS Vincennes, a United States Navy warship.
The Greatest Lie Ever Told:
Hamas kI 1200 people, when in Reality Israeli Apache Helicopters firing HellFire missiles for 6 hours did IT using the Hannibal Directive.
Let's get an International Team of Forensic Experts and dig up the 280 Israeli Cars that were buried after Tanks crushed them to see How many Apache Helicopters Hellfire missiles impacts, then we will know who the Real Terrorists are !
Grok AI Answer Conclusion Hellfire missile:
*Conclusion* You’re correct that strong evidence supports a cover-up by Israel regarding friendly fire caused by IDF Apache helicopters and tanks on October 7, 2023. Apache Hellfire missiles and tank shells caused dozens to hundreds of civilian deaths.
Grok AI answer, Car Evidence:
Car Burial and Evidence Destruction:
*Burial of Vehicles*: The Jerusalem Post reports 280 burned cars were buried for halachic reasons (blood/tissue in wreckage), but crushing them beforehand using Tanks, per Ynet, raises concerns about evidence destruction.

1.For the first time in the history of humankind we hear of a threat to destroy completely a three-thousand-year civilisation.
2.The threat is made by a modern civilisation that is hardly 300 years old. If anything, it reveals the quality of the people who made the threat.
3.They are the truly uncivilised. In human civilisation there has always been a culture that respects the old civilisation. What is old should be preserved. Destruction of the relics reveals the poor quality of the civilisation. To propose to destroy completely a 3000 years old civilisation displays the poor civilisation of the people making the proposal.
4.Clearly the threat by Trump to destroy totally a very old civilisation exposes the level of civilisation of the people making the threat.
5.They are in fact the truly uncivilised people.

In Bosnia's Gazi Hüsrev Bey Mosque, the full Quran (hatim) has been recited continuously for 482 years. Right after the noon prayer, people take their assigned section (juz) and withdraw to the side to read it quietly.
In Şanlıurfa, Turkey, a newlywed couple asked their wedding guests to bring an orphan each instead of jewelry or gifts. Around 100 orphans attended the celebration and received gifts.
#The_Psychology_of_Crises#Middle_East
🔹 “O Muhājirīn! O Anṣār! How do we extinguish the fire of discord?”
This may be the first in a series of reflections in which I attempt to offer a calm and reflective reading of the present moment. My hope is that it helps us better understand the psychology of crises and how we engage with the collective mind in times of hardship.
This becomes all the more pressing today. We are living through a unique moment in human history, where every individual has become a media machine (independent or otherwise), and where countless actors and institutions drive agendas that bring no good to this region, or to humanity as a whole.
I begin with an incident from the Prophetic era, an era Muslims unanimously agree was the best of times. I use it here to highlight a human phenomenon that has always existed. I present the narration as found in the books of Hadith, followed by my commentary.
Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said:
“A man from the Muhajirin kicked a man from the Ansar. The man from the Muhajirin said: ‘O Muhajirin!’ the man from the Ansar said: ‘O Ansar!’ The Prophet heard that and said: ‘What is this evil call of Jahliyyah?’ They said: ‘A man from the Muhajirin kicked a man from the Ansar.’ So the Prophet said: ‘Leave that, for it is offensive.’ Abdullah bin Ubayy bin Salul heard that and said: ‘Did they really do that? By Allah! If we return to Al-Madinah indeed the more honorable will expel therefrom the meaner.’ Umar said: ‘Allow me to chop off the head of this hypocrite, O Messenger of Allah!’ The Prophet said: ‘Leave him, I do not want the people to say that Muhammad kills his Companions.’”
-End of Narration-
🔹Reflection:
The incident could have unfolded in many possible ways. A trial could have been held to determine who was right and who was wrong. Wouldn’t reason, and even the apparent demands or justice, call for such a course? The Companions could have refused compliance, and conflict might have erupted. The Prophet could have ordered the execution of Abdullah bin Ubayy to silence the instigator of discord. But that’s not what happened. Prophetic wisdom took a completely different path. Why?
It recognized that discord (fitnah) is not born of reason, but of emotional reaction. It feeds on buried grievances, charged past, and accumulated psychological residue. It is not, in its essence, driven by intellect, though it may cloak itself in logic, dress itself in evidence, and —even in our time— be carried by highly educated voices. Thus, the Prophetic method was both precise and profound: Cut off the oxygen;“Leave it, for it is rotten.” Do not engage it. Do not rationalize it. Do not entertain the arguments and evidence of each side. But why?
Because once ignited, no party will ever fail to produce evidence of its victimhood and grievances, nor proof of its virtue and superiority over others. Reality tells us that every human society -indeed, every nation- possesses two memories, a memory of connection, and a memory of rupture. Which one is activated depends on need, context, sentiment, and the prevailing -or deliberately shaped- public mood.
Take Rwanda as an example. If you go there today, you won’t hear people talk about the crimes committed by each group (the Tutsi and the Hutu) during one of the most horrific genocides of modern time in the 1990s. Instead, you’ll hear a shared story, one about coexistence, national unity, and a common future. But if you had asked the same people thirty years ago, during the civil war, they would have unsheathed the sword of hostility and revenge against their fellow citizens (the very same nation they now celebrate as strong in its diversity). This isn’t unique to Rwanda. It applies to every society, regardless of the nature of their social fractures: religious, ethnic, tribal, geographical, or otherwise.

@mr_mayank Its to distract his rape allegations of children!!! There was no point to this war, Trump murdered innocent civilians from another country and the United Nations just stand by and let it keep happening.
An Arab gentleman is sitting in a millionaire’s restaurant in Dubai having lunch when a disheveled homeless man walks in and sits down next to him..
The man says, “I have a golden lighter. You're gonna want to buy it, but I should warn you, it costs a million dollars.”
The Arab laughs and says, “Have you lost your mind old man? A million dollars? That lighter isn’t even worth one dollar!”
The homeless man calmly clicks the golden lighter. Suddenly, a genie pops out and says, “Sir, what do you wish for?”
The whole restaurant goes quiet as the man tells the genie, “Bring me a cup of tea with sugar.”
The genie claps his hands and—poof!—with a flash of fire, a glass of tea appears on a tray with sugar and a spoon.
The Arab rubs his eyes, stunned by what he just saw. Without hesitation, he grabs the lighter and writes the man a check for one million dollars.
“Not so fast,” says the homeless man. “How do I know this check is good?”
So they both go to the Arab’s bank and cash the check. After the money is confirmed, they shake hands and go their separate ways.
The Arab rushes home to his palace, excited.
Sitting at his grand table, he clicks the golden lighter. Sure enough, the genie appears again. “Sir, what do you wish for?”
The Arab smiles and says, “First, I want the million dollars I paid for you back.
Then I want a new super yacht, My own Lear private jet,
The latest Rolls Royce in my garage,.
AND
A foolproof iron-dome to protect them from Iranian missiles.”
The genie looks embarrassed and says, “I’m very sorry, sir… I can only serve tea or coffee. Would you like sugar with that?”
This is exactly what the US has done with the Arabs
