Don't hate the messenger. I'm just trying to learn. I think Pakistan is one of the most anti-polygyny Muslim majority countries I've been to, and I want to understand why that is.

I think most scholars trace it back to influence of hindiusm and their culture, which is reflected in many other ways as well.

What do you guys and girls think?

A rickshaw driver jumped into a canal after being issued a 2,000-rupee fine!

Ms. Maryam Nawaz!

What kind of policies are your people making in Assembly. You have to change these kind of thinking that your nation is rich... You are not in Dubai or in Europe.. in a country like Pakistan where most of the population is poor but rules and regulations are like Rich country...

Politician didn't think about the poor people... Politician have to Keep this in mind: people might not give a chance to escape. It is the height of cruelty that a poor laborer, who barely earns 1,700 to 1,800 rupees in an entire day, is slapped with a 2,000-rupee fine for his rickshaw—and that’s not even counting the 400 rupees spent on fuel! In the Sambrial area of ​​Sialkot, a man jumped into a canal after his rickshaw was issued a 2,000-rupee fine. Ms. Maryam Nawaz! Do the poor have no right to live?

Edit 1.0: People thinking I'm supporting a rickshaw driver... I'm not...

Traffic police stance: I talk to them also see the application which they are using...

1) Daily Target =50,000/- each 2star officer

2) Cash deposit not in the form of (have to pay later)

3) If they don't achieve the target they get punishment (Have to stand for 3 to 4 hours in sun).

4) Day and night shift (not to control traffic just to impose fine).

Many other things which can't be discussed openly.

How we can improve Traffic in Pakistan.

1) Through Education. Before delivering new / transferring the vehicle.. every document have to be checked.

2) Government make driving School to educate people.

3) in school one lecture (How to make Pakistan more perfect)

4) Three warnings before big fine.

Many other....

Edit 2.0: Some people think that I'm supporting Rickshaw driver or those drivers who drive carelessly.

Actually ,I'm not supporting any bad act happening on road. My point was government have to impose the fine according to car + the person who is using it... I will share a video in comments. Which show the actual problem... The poor people have no money to pay bills. How can they pay 2000 fine. Plus Fine is same for Rich & poor...

Hv you guys witnessed seedless lemons or tomatoes in your homes? Yes,they are genetically modified. Don’t get happy for this.

GMO seeds are being pushed into Pakistan's fields in the name of progress and higher yield, backed by billion-dollar global networks like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation which funds and promotes genetically modified crops across Africa and South Asia. For our farmers, this means dependency. Once you plant GMO, you can't save your seed for next year you have to buy it again, plus the specific chemical that goes with it.

The side effects are real: loss of our native seed varieties, soil that becomes addicted to chemicals, rising costs for small farmers, and health questions that have not been answered for our people. Our desi wheat, our basmati, our cotton, these seeds survived centuries in our soil. Why replace them with a lab-made seed owned by a foreign corporation?

The future of agriculture in Pakistan should be seed sovereignty, our farmers owning our seeds, not renting them every season. Organic, indigenous, and free.

Follow GMO FREE PAKISTAN because this is not just about farming, this is about our food, our health, and our independence. We are here to protect the Pakistani seed. Our goal is to create awareness, to raise voice and to run a strong campaign. The end goal is to reach farmers and educate them about this.

Pakistan has so much potential, and everyone has their own ideas about how to make it better.
If you could change just ONE thing in Pakistan to improve people’s lives, what would it be and why?
Would you choose education, the economy, the justice system, job opportunities, or something else?
I’m genuinely interested in hearing different perspectives from people living in Pakistan.

As you all know colloquial English is very heavy on contractions and we are all used to “wanna gonna and I’d I’m” etc. There are even newer contractions like and => en, we regularly get exposed to online. I grew up thinking that it was a feature of the English language. We rarely shorten our Urdu and we mostly pronounce it as it is written even colloquially. It wasnt until I learned Spanish in college and I encountered so many English esque contractions that it struck me how formal is our informal Urdu. Like the biggest contraction I can think of is removing h/ہ in a few of our words like Kya ai instead of Kya hai.

Now that I think about it. It makes total sense as most Pakistanis learned Urdu formally through schools a few generations back and the language hasnt had enough time being spoken out in the streets to be heavily colloquialized. Urdu has definitely developed over the last 70 years but hasnt had the time to properly diverge yet.

Are there other colloquial contractions in Urdu yall can think of?

Someone please tell me this is fake.

I went to Al Fatah at Hussain Chowk today, and honestly, the experience felt really weird. I usually shop there, so I am familiar with the place. However, today I needed a serum and lip balm urgently, so I decided to stop by. The only difference was that I was dressed very casually. My clothes were unironed and messy, my hair was oiled, and I had no makeup on. Normally, when I visit after university, I am well dressed, with nice makeup and open, straight hair.

This time, though, I noticed a very different attitude from the staff. Their body language and the way they looked at me made me feel as if I did not belong there. I was there for around 20 minutes, and barely anyone bothered to approach me or offer any help. I ended up walking around the aisles and looking for the products myself. To be clear, I do not mind shopping independently at all. I actually prefer browsing on my own sometimes. It was the overall attitude and those weird looks that made the experience uncomfortable. I cannot say for sure whether my appearance was the reason, but the difference was noticeable enough to leave me wondering.

I am really tired of getting these calls at least 5 times a day. Most of the time I am sleeping. And the worst part is I don’t really get much calls like whenever ring tubes I know these f are calling.

Hey everyone, M25 from Islamabad here.
I just have a simple question: Do marriage apps like Muzz actually work, or are they just a waste of time?
My parents want me to marry someone from within our extended family, but honestly, I don’t want that. My family is a bit toxic, so I’d rather find someone outside the family.
I’ve never had a girlfriend or been into dating. I’ve had female colleagues, but that’s pretty much it. I’m new to all this and genuinely don’t know how these apps work or whether people actually find serious partners on them.
So, for those who’ve tried Muzz or similar apps, what’s your experience been like? Are they worth giving a shot if you’re genuinely looking for marriage?
I’d really appreciate some honest advice!

In August, the Supreme Court ordered that Imran Khan be shifted to Al-Shifa Hospital, but the government did not comply with the court’s order. The court could have taken action over this blatant disregard for its authority, but as you can see, the Supreme Court has still not taken any action.

After seeing all this, who would want to invest in Pakistan?

All three of Imran Khan’s sisters were detained under Section 3 of the MPO for 30 days and imprisoned without committing any crime. Their 30-day detention period has now ended, but they have still not been released.

Hello everyone,
to the point,after december i will have 3 lac and i need to do something with this money to grow it. im employed so mostly free after 6pm and i live in rawalpindi.5 min away from islamabad.i need ur guys advice i will keep 1.5 lac for home expenses as we dont know when the bad time comes upon us. so the remaining i want to give some work a try.maybe do something in i-8 markaz.whats the best option here?

I didn't want to be the one to say it but it's kinda official, since Musharaf was booted out of office and multi party elections were allowed, this is now the FIRST time that we are technically running on a one-party structure.

I mean hear me out, since 2007 to 2026 ish. This is now the first time we have no notion of an opposition party. PTI IS GONE IN ALL BUT NAME. Their workers are arrested, their governments toppled, Cm kpk is a missing person along with speaker assembly and much of his cabinet. Imran khan and his elite are locked up for years of frivolous charges.

One could argue it started somewhere in 2024, but even then the opposition had some power, now there is simply no opposition. Ppp and pmlun act like one in the house or legislations. They pretend to be different but are the same.

One could again argue that Pakistan has been a one-party state since it's inception, but there was always some form of opposition, now it's just really bad.

I look at how bad things are and question myself, what was all this even for? No Pakistani ever wanted this. We just watched them take away everything.

Idk what's next in store for Pakistan,but it ain pretty.

They're going here and there in vain?

In world wide list of most polluted cities we are in top 4 , proud moment for South Asia

Before ordering, I specifically asked him whether the bag would fit a laptop. He sent me a video showing the bag with a laptop being placed in it, I placed my order of a shirt and bag based on the information he provided. Lo and behold

1. The agreed price was Rs. 6,500. The seller asked me to pay Rs. 900 in advance, which I paid.

2. The product I received was completely different from what I expected. The bag did not match the one shown in the video, its quality was very poor, and it was too small to fit my laptop. The shirt's quality was also disappointing and very cheap.

3. The payment amount was different from what we had agreed. When I received the parcel at the post office, the amount written on it was Rs. 6,100. Since I had already paid Rs. 900 in advance, the remaining amount should have been Rs. 5,600 if our agreed total of Rs. 6,500 had been honoured. Instead, I was required to pay Rs. 6,100, bringing my total payment to Rs. 7,000. I couldn't return the parcel coz i had paid 900 already.

4. I could not resolve the issue with the seller. I contacted him while receiving the parcel, he saw the texts but he did not respond for around 6 hours.

5. When he eventually replied on WhatsApp after i told him on insta that I'm gonna expose him, he claimed that the parcel charges had increased because of its weight. He said he had paid Rs. 1,500 for shipping( that is a lie as pakistan post doesn't charger this much for 2kg). Regardless of the reason for the increase, he had not informed me beforehand or given me the option to cancel the order, even though we had already agreed on a final price.

6. He promised to return the money but did not follow through. After I explained the problem, he asked for my number and said he would send the refund when he was free. Instead of resolving the matter, I subsequently discovered that I had been blocked on both Instagram and WhatsApp.

What makes this even more concerning is that I found another person commenting “Scammer” on his Facebook page. I contacted him, and he shared screenshots showing a similar experience: he had agreed to buy a shirt for Rs. 1,500 but was charged Rs. 2,500 when the parcel arrived.

This appears to be a repeated pattern, not just an isolated bad experience. Both of us have evidence of what happened.

Renowned economist Atif Mian has said Pakistan’s policy of sending its workers abroad is built to bring home foreign currency so that the elite can “live off DHA better,” and that this thinking has to change.

Marco Rubio Secretary of State for USA said today in a interview

"So, our relationship with Pakistan is not new. It's I think it's just developed in a way that allows us to have, hopefully, more influence over the decisions they make on a variety of topics. "

The regime exposed once again for being an American puppet yet we will sit in our homes in silence.

I am a 21-year-old male patient with bilateral undescended testes. Yesterday I visited a urologist for my reports. Instead of counseling me privately, the doctor discussed my most sensitive and painful diagnosis - including words like "you will become not a man if testicles are removed" - in front of 5-6 female students to teach them, without taking my consent.

‎>

‎> For any medical student or doctor reading this: A patient is not a teaching specimen. Before you use someone's body to teach, please take consent. Before you use shaming words like "na-mard", remember that a 21-year-old is listening and his whole life feels shattered.

‎>

‎> We need to talk about medical privacy, consent for teaching, and respectful language. Manhood is not defined by testicles. It is defined by hormones, treatment, and humanity. I request all hospitals to please counsel such sensitive cases in private.

‎>

‎> This is not to defame anyone, but to ensure the next 21-year-old does not feel humiliated like I did.

Hello everyone. I have been looking for warehouses or storage spaces in Pakistan for personal use. We are in between countries right now and it is becoming an increasing hassle to leave personal effects at home and have someone stay there just for security.

If anyone has any knowledge how I can go about this, I would be very greatly. I have even looked into godowns but they are mostly for commercial purposes and too big in size. We don’t want to inconvenience our relatives by asking them to hang on to our belongings for an indefinite period.

Please help. Jazakallah.
