Feedback

Dear Editor,

I want to read fiction in Us magazine. There are always so many informative articles. At times, it gets very boring. I remember Us would always run a fictional story every Friday. They used to be very simple and short, but they were always a joy to read.

I would also like to appreciate Iqra Asad for “Eid engagement”! It’s a light-hearted fun read. But Iqra, I want you to bring more action to the story. There are too many dialogues.

Us team, also please organize a story writing competition. Really looking forward to one this year.

Hi Ed,

Read Omar Iftikhar’s piece “Friends: The Reunion”! Friends was surely a fun sitcom. People still enjoy watching it. The reunion episode was a treat for diehard fans of Friends.

I wish the writer critiqued the episode as well since I came across negative comments regarding the reunion show.

Thanks a lot for publishing entertainment related stuff!

Dear Editor,

I regularly read Us magazine. I always find it interesting and entertaining. Ed, I want to mention here that I am very concerned about our education system. Covid has made things worse. Every week, we find out something new. Just now, Aga Khan Board has decided not to take exams for compulsory subjects. Things have become so unpredictable.

I suggest Us team should meet educators and important people in various examination boards and ask questions regarding the future of education in Pakistan.

Reflection

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Allah's Apostle offered four Rakat of Zuhr prayer at Medina and we were in his company, and two Rakat of the Asr prayer at Dhul-Hulaifa and then passed the night there till it was dawn; then he rode, and when he reached Al-Baida', he praised and glorified Allah and said Takbir (i.e. Alhamdu-lillah and Subhanallah(1) and Allahu-Akbar). Then he and the people along with him recited Talbiya with the intention of performing Hajj and Umra. When we reached (Mecca) he ordered us to finish the lhram (after performing the Umra) (only those who had no Hadi (animal for sacrifice) with them were asked to do so) till the day of Tarwiya that is 8th Dhul-Hijja when they assumed Ihram for Hajj. The Prophet sacrificed many camels (slaughtering them) with his own hands while standing. While Allah's Apostle was in Medina he sacrificed two horned rams black and white in color in the Name of Allah."
