Road trip to Dongaon

Monday, January 23rd, 2012

As Huzurala TUS is in Dongaon, me and my family with families of my brother and sister, went on a road trip to Dongaon for a day to be spent there i.e. Sunday and attend Waaz of Shahadat Imam Hasan AS and perform deedar of Aqa Maula TUS and Mufaddal Maula TUS and also perform ziyarat of Maulaya Nooruddin QR.

We left in a Qualis (7+4) and was a 9hr 30min travel each side with adequate stopovers on way for refreshment and food.

Overall, a superb trip to be long remembered and cherished.

Warora on Bike

Friday, January 6th, 2012

A fortnight ago, I got a call from my friend who was with us in Dubai. Though he just used to meet on some Fridays. Was happy to get a call from him inviting me for marriage of his brother at Warora.

I and another friend, decided to go all the way to Warora (234 Kms from home-to-home) by bike. The road from Nagpur to Warora, going through Nagpur-Chandrapur Highway which is more than half a National Highway — superbly four laned — and the rest being State Highway — which is being converted into four lanes — was simply great. A smooth ride.

While going, we stopped at Jamb and in return, as it was late, we had a stop at Jamb, but could not get anything further to stop.

We were surprised that during the entire run of 234 Kms — on National Highway and State Highway — we did not encounter even a single Patrol Vehicle.

Celebrations: Heartfelt or Routine ?

Saturday, November 26th, 2011

There are many celebrations, which we do every year. Like, celebrating new year, different personal calendars, religious calendars, social calendars. Many of these engagements are also repetitive in nature, some weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly and even yearly.

How many of these do we celebrate with all our heart and mind set to celebrate it ? And, how many of them do we — each individual — celebrate as a routine, celebrating for the sake of celebration ?

One needs to ponder over it.

Hyderabad: I’m impressed

Tuesday, October 18th, 2011

Had been to Hyderabad for two days to attend marriage function of my friend.

We left on Saturday night and were scheduled to return by Monday morning, but trains were cancelled / late due to the Telangana strike and hence returned on Monday evening reaching back on Tuesday Morning.

Except the train cancellation / late running, there we saw no effect of the strike in the life of people living in Hyderabad.

As we had nothing to do on Monday, we made a tourist reservation on Monday and went for Hyderabad Darshan and saw the following:

Birla Temple

H E H Nizam Museum

Chow Mohalla Palace

Salarjung Museum

Charminar (Drive through)

Mecca Masjid (drive through)

Golconda Fort

N T R Garden

Lumbini Park (drive through)

Husain Sagar (drive through).

 

Overall it was an fantastic trip, we enjoyed every minute of it.

I and my friends, we all were impressed with Hyderabad — the city of Nizams. Nagpur has lot to learn from it, it was clean (despite strike), big roads, traffic manners, regular city bus service, extremely cheap eataries — good quality and quantity also in it and many many more things.

Maaraz al Burhani Mumbai

Thursday, July 28th, 2011

I had been to Maaraz al Burhani at Mumbai. It was superb. Well managed, well arranged, well maintained. I sometimes felt it to be too fast, but then it was necessary.

A must see for every mumin and mumena. If you have not yet been there, go as soon as possible. If you think you are too busy to go there, you are missing a great and very important feature. You have to take time out for all things in life.

Home Sweet Home

Tuesday, July 5th, 2011

After living for 3+ years in Dubai, UAE, I have shifted back to Nagpur.

I remember while flying from Nagpur to Dubai for the first time, I cried, for leaving back my family and friends here. Writing this today, after 4 days of my travel, my eyes still cry, for I left behind my friends which were dearer to me. Some of them grew close to my heart while I was in Dubai, we had never met earlier, and some of them I knew since I was a small kid. Tears fell down uncontrollably while the plane took off from Sharjah Airport. As I said to one of my friends, on question of how I’m feeling at that exact moment, like a newly wed girl, happy to go to her new home, and at the same time, sad to leave her parents. Happy to find new life, sad that she will miss her old life, and soon adjust to the new life.

All said, but, I will not be able to forget all those who have made a deep impact in my heart.
