Zafar Abbas: A Voice for Karachi’s Youth – Clarifying the Recent Incident

We want to clarify that Zafar Abbas is personally ensuring that the injured youngsters are receiving medical treatment at one of the top hospitals in Pakistan. He is also in constant contact with the victims’ families, offering full support during this difficult time.

Through our page, we sincerely request everyone to stay truthful and responsible. Spreading lies not only misleads the public but is also a serious sin.

We, as citizens of Karachi, are all praying for the quick and complete recovery of the injured youth. May Allah Almighty bless them with full health and healing. Ameen.

Malir, once known as the "Garden of Karachi," was historically renowned for its fertile lands and ideal climate, which allowed for the cultivation of a variety of fruits, including the beloved Jamun (Black Plum). The Jamun from Malir held a special place due to its unique characteristics and numerous health benefits. Typically, two main varieties were found: the smaller, seedier Desi Jamun and the more pulp-rich, darker purple Ra Jamun, with the latter often being more preferred. Malir's Jamun were generally medium to large in size, transitioning from green when raw to a deep, lustrous black when fully ripe. They offered a distinct sweet, slightly tart, and astringent flavor profile that was highly sought after in urban markets for its freshness and unique taste. Beyond its culinary appeal, Jamun is a powerhouse of health benefits, widely used in traditional medicine for its ability to help regulate blood sugar levels (making it particularly beneficial for diabetics, especially the dried seed powder), aid in digestion, and purify the blood. Its cooling properties also made it a popular fruit to combat the summer heat. Unfortunately, due to rapid urbanization and water scarcity, much of Malir's agricultural land, including Jamun orchards, has diminished. Despite these challenges, some local farmers continue their efforts to preserve these valuable trees, ensuring that the legacy of Malir's Jamun, a symbol of Karachi's rich agricultural past and a fruit with immense health value, endures.

The Karachi Traffic Police have issued a detailed traffic diversion plan ahead of the 12th Muharram procession, scheduled for Tuesday, July 8, 2025. The procession will begin at 5:00 PM from Imambargah Sahib-e-Zaman in Block 14, Gulistan-e-Jauhar, and conclude at Imambargah Akhir-ul-Zaman in Block 19. It will pass through key points such as Rado Bakery, Johar Chowrangi, Perfume Chowk, and Johar Mor.

According to officials, all roads along the procession route and its connecting streets will be closed from 5:00 PM on Tuesday until 4:30 AM on Wednesday. Both lanes of Kamran Chowrangi leading to and from Johar Mor will remain shut, and the Johar Underpass will also be inaccessible during this time.

Traffic coming from Drigh Road and Dalmia towards Johar Chowrangi will be stopped before the Nipa Flyover at the Chase Value U-turn and diverted via Ave Q Banquet, Overseas Flats, Naveed Bungalows, and Haroon Royal City. Similarly, vehicles traveling from Nipa to Drigh Road will be rerouted via the Alauddin U-turn towards University Road.

Traffic from Mussamiyat via Kamran Chowrangi will be redirected toward Works Society using a U-turn at the Haskol Pump near Imambargah Wahdat-ul-Muslimeen. Travelers heading towards Mussamiyat and Johar can use alternate routes via Pehlwan Goth and PHA Road.

Authorities have also warned of expected traffic congestion on Rashid Minhas Road, Dalmia Road, and areas near the Nipa and Johar flyovers. Heavy vehicles will not be allowed on the affected routes during the procession hours. Citizens are advised to plan their travel in advance, use alternate routes, and cooperate with traffic personnel deployed for public safety and guidance.

Pakistan is set to earn \$200 million through tuna exports after securing a 25,000-tonne quota from the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC), which includes Yellowfin and Skipjack tuna. Federal Minister for Maritime Affairs, Junaid Anwar Chaudhry, hailed it as a landmark achievement aligned with sustainable fishing practices. The government has introduced key reforms such as the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Policy and is promoting longline fishing to reduce bycatch. These efforts aim to modernize the fisheries sector and strengthen Pakistan’s presence in international seafood markets.

پندرہ سال قبل عاشورہ کے مرکزی جلوس میں پاکستان دشمن عناصر کی طرف سے دھـماکہ کیا گیا تھا لیکن آج اتنے سال گزرنے کے بعد بھی اس ملک میں سب مل جل کر رہتے ہیں، امام حسین علیہ السلام کا نام کل بھی بلند تھا اور ہمیشہ رہے گا۔
اللہ ہمارے ملک پاکستان کو ہمیشہ شرپسندی سے محفوظ رکھے آمین.

The powerful message from Raza Shiekh this Muharram beautifully encapsulates the essence of Imam Hussain's (AS) stand. His message transcends sectarian and religious boundaries, speaking to the core of human experience: a heart that feels pain, a soul that recognizes ultimate sacrifice, and a spirit that stands for justice.
This reflection invites all of us, regardless of our background, to contemplate the profound lessons embedded in his sacrifice. It's a reminder that the pursuit of justice and the willingness to make ultimate sacrifices for deeply held principles are universal human aspirations

There is no parallel to this spirit!
