We go through the repetition of all those horrible events and it still has the same effect on us.
It is hard to imagine if I was there in the nearby hospital as a physician what would be my own condition mentally physically and professionally.
Twelve years on- thinking now it is so apparent--the world changed permanently.
Has there been any event of a couple hours in the human history that has had such huge impact in every way on all the countries and living human beings of the world? I wonder.
Could all those men who performed this act those who organised and those who engineered etc., have imagined the consequences of this kind? I wonder.
Were they Muslims or just terrorists under the command of some mentally deranged person? I wonder.
The weekend before that I was attending ISNA conference where we saw the exhibition of (and the artist Br. Zakaria) Eid Mubarak Stamps. I had felt so proud of being in this country where I was even more free to practice my deen even more than where I was born AND BE APPRECIATED here as a Muslim. Of course, all that feeling lasted only a couple of days. Now I feel ashamed, apologetic worried inferior type of human being as a Muslim and still my pride is far from coming back to me. Will it ever come back? I wonder.
Now there is a second "Pakistani" thought- We have been observing "sadness" of 11th of September for 65 years now as we lost our beloved leader and founder of our country Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. The loss for us ordinary Pakistanis and Muslims of Pakistan (original) is enormous and is getting worse with time which is difficult for non-Pakistanis to understand but FB and other places will be filled with these things about him by young Pakistanis who will not be able to understand why the Governments of Pakistan one after the other ever since have never referred to His speeches his instructions his thoughts about what he wanted this country for and for whom. Some even blame him and funny thing some even hate him (some burned the house in which he breathed his last) and may not show their rancour. He was "a man of principle" personified. A giant leader of Muslims of Indo-Pakistan subcontinent. Yes he is missed
