Do we need a new Heathcare system for Pakistan?

What a poor state of health in our Pakistan!!  We need to spend a lot more on health. In 2010, the infant(child younger than 1 year) is 70 according to UNICEF and 77 in Punjab according to the Punjab Health Department. There are only 37,272 for a population of above 81 Million with 70 percent living in the rural areas. We don't even have a current data on Health. Many doctors are migrating to other countries because of the poor working environment in the hospitals. Nobody seems to care about the health in this province. The journalists are busy in calling doctors as robbers and thieves. The Govt. has decided to use all of its strength to crack down on the doctors demanding their rights. The situation is getting worse and worse. The health department of Punjab is being run by politicians rather than professionals. What is happening here?! Can we not renovate Mayo and Ganga Raam instead of building bridges for Lahore?! A point to ponder! Following the sources of this information. Do...

Is there a Solution to the common Muslim problem?

Ramadan comes to an end. 30 days of muslim fasting ends with celebratory day. "Eid ul Fitr". I think I will miss Ramadan and fasting. Well I have done some reading on MSNBC blogs and read anti-muslim comments.I read those comments and I was amazed at the people writing those comments. They were quoting Quran out of context. Some even called Quran boring(not that I have problem with what he feels. But Dude dont expect nude pictures in the Holy Book). One person called Pakistanis, Arabs and Camel Jockey(although there are few deserts in Pakistan but we are not an Arab country). Then another Indian guy proposed that Muslims should live in Pakistan and Hindus should live in India(I do believe that some individuals have border line personality disorder and see everything in black and white). Then there is another guy who says that Muhammad PBUH attacked Meccan Army of 300 in the Battle of the Badar( that is not even historically correct). Then comes the Atheist and he says, ...

Who is Allah? My Ramadan post!

I don't want to waste my time arguing with someone who is so full of hate on religious matters on Facebook, Twitter and other websites. It is just time consuming and eventually everyone is hiding behind their computers screen saying horrific things about religion in general and Islam in particular. There are a common misunderstandings about Islam in many people. I would try to address few in simple Q and A type format on this post. I am doing this because I hope somebody would click this and I will be able to at least fulfill my duty to spread some of the facts about Islam during Ramadan.. Who is ALLAH?  Allah is not a Moon God. Allah is an Arabic word used for the God(the force controlling this universe). According to Islam, He is the God of Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus , Muhammad and other Prophets (Peace be Upon them) Who is Jesus?  He is the Prophet of God Al mighty. If a Muslim does not believe in Jesus, he is not a Muslim. Al though Muslims do not consider him the So...
