Well here it is folks (Nazireen in Urdu), I have had a busy morning by myslef. After the sunrise, (actually exactly 15 minutes after sunrise time) I decided to say "thank you" to my Creator offering Him ninety two Rakaat Nafil (Plural Nawafil) each one for each year of this wonderful life He has graced me with. As expected from my dwindeling powers of memory I had lot of problems so I had taken a precaution of keeping an account of the numbers but still got forgetful in my recitations of surahs. Until I took up easy verses I had learned in childhood and in my first year studies of Islamiyat class - the last ten surahs of Quran, which was a shortened easier system also I had learned in my village mosque with poorly educated Imam who used them twice during Ramadan taraweeh to make complete twenty.That solved the problem, still it took me well over an hour to finish. then made my dus for myself and all important family persons
Saugoree means I was born or I hail from Saugor This is the way they spelt the name of that city of my birth during British days of India. Then I moved at 11 years of age to Kotla a village in the Panjab close to the Kashmir border where I finished my initial education and childhood going on to Lahore for further studies where I got BSc and MBBS and then left for NWFP where I spent 2 1/2 years, teaching in the new Medical School, and from there leaving for UK and then USA
