    On a Judaeo-Urdu (a register of Urdu used by some Indian Jewish communities) play about a celestial nymph at the god Indra's court, itself written in the court of the exiled king Wajid Ali Shah. It was made into a film that has since been lost.

    Yes, and it's up to each and every one of us to make sure that a fundamental shift happens. It may take time, which only means that we can't let ourselves forget. Everyone who has even a shred of moral sensibility has an obligation to do, at the very least, this

    I'm flabbergasted by the sustained outrage in DC at the apparent horrific murder of Jamal Khashoggi (from Left and Right, Congress, media, business leaders, etc). I was cynical much would change, but it now appears we may see a fundamental shift in US-Saudi relations.

    Modern Muslims are going to have a tough time with this.. Which is why the "woke elite" strategy makes sense: stay within own westernized circle and arguments about western colonialism and "Whiteness", safe ground, everyone happy and positive feedback 😎

    I am going off the AJP Taylor piece about him, where he goes into Hitler’s early days. Also photos of Hitler as a prosperous young man about town when he was supposedly a down and out.

    So PTI wants to withdraw a proposed amendment to the blasphemy law that would make false accusations liable to the same punishment as alleged blasphemers. Caving in yet again to mullah pressure. Such a principled lot this.

    Leader of the House in the Senate Syed Shibli Faraz on Friday submitted a request to the Senate Secretariat for the withdrawal of the Prevention of Electronic Crimes (Amendment) Bill 2018.

    I simply point out that Saudi Arabia needs to buy US weapons more than the US needs to sell them.

    عمران خان صاحب کے مرید ہیں ، شاعروں کے بارے میں قرآن شریف میں یہ حکم ہے اور شاعروں کی پیروی تو گمراہ ہی کرتے ہیں۔ کیا تم نے نہیں دیکھا کہ وہ ہر میدان میں بھٹکتے پھرتے ہیں۔ اور جو وہ کہتے ہیں کرتے نہیں۔ (سورۃ الشعراء 224 تا 226) پس منظرکے لیئے آیت 221 سے شروع کریں

    These are remarkable recommendations coming from a former CIA director and ambassador to Saudi Arabia. Doubt US will take many of these steps (partial sanctions on individuals possible) but there will be long-lasting reputational damage.

    "... the US would have to act. That would include immediate sanctions on all Saudis involved; a freeze on U.S. military sales to Saudi Arabia; suspension of all routine intelligence cooperation with Saudi security services; and a U.S.-sponsored U.N. Security Council resolution"

    Iranian mullahs just organized a conference on "dangers" of Sufism.

    Iranian cleric: It's wrong to say that Sufism opposes Wahabism. In India, Sufism mixed with Wahabism to create most dangerous ideas against Islam. Sir Syed, a leader of Indian Sufis & Salafis, was a strong critic of Shiism. Taliban learnt the same Sufism.

    Despicable! Would he include in same category numerous western journalists who interviewed Bin Laden and/or other terrorists?? Does this mean they too are justifiable targets?

    NEW: Donald Trump Jr. on Friday promoted a smear tying Jamal Khashoggi to Osama bin Laden, retweeting a series of tweets meant to imply that the Saudi commentator, who has been missing since last week, supported Islamic terrorism

    Khashoggi was a US green card holder, the same immigration status Trump’s mother- and father-in-law had until two months ago.

    Trump seemed to make a point today to note that Khashoggi wasn’t a U.S. citizen. Remember that.

    'A Turkish official told The Times: “It’s like a bad Russian job, a B-type crime movie. At first we assumed they were trying to make a statement but it looks like incompetence. We aren’t going to let this go and now Trump is on it too.” ...'

    As is always the case, whenever Trump says something like "no one knew" or "people are starting to see," what he really means is "This is a thing which I have literally just learned."
