A Memorable Morning
So I was about to go to sleep and tell my friends to wake me up at Fajr when the electricity went. This doesn’t happen usually at GIKI so most of us came out of the rooms. I turned off the light and fan switches, wore my sandals, turned the torch on in my awesome Nokia mobile having a torch that works, picked up a packet of Catty Chins (Cheese) by Super Crisp (man they’re yummy) and went out of my room.
I sat for a while outside on the hostel stairs looking towards the sky (crazy about stargazing). It was quite dark and it seemed really nice, so calm and serene. And I thought to myself that what would it like be at the time of the Prophet (SallAllaahu Alaiyhi Wasallam)? They would have this peace everyday. No pollution, clear sky, no internet to keep them distracted, all connected to nature you know. It must have been amazing. So I finished my snack and went to the mosque. There was no one there at that time. After a while a junior came and we talked a bit and the Azaan started in different mosques around us. So we decided since the guy who usually gives it is not here yet we should go ahead. So for the first time in 4 years of my stay in GIKI, I gave the Azaan. It felt good Alhamdulillah except for the fact that there was no electricity!
Anyway, I lied down there for a while and that guy went out. I could feel that there were mosquitoes gathering around me. I started feeling itchy and knew they were biting. Then the light came and I saw them close to me. First my expression was:
And I then I saw 3-4 sitting on my foot and I’m like
But I realized they must be a lot so I stood up and to no surprise there were quite a lot roaming around me. So I ran like crazy (not literally of course)…
After Namaz now I came back to my room and started counting the red spots that I could see on my hands and feet. To my surprise I have 67 (THREE LESS THAN SEVENTY) mosquito bites on my hands and feet alone (these are the ones I can see and count). Wonder what they did to the rest of me.
But there was only one conclusion this could lead to…. THEY LOVE ME!
Now I better get ready to leave for Rawalpindi. But first, gotta have those parathay…
Have a blessed day. Assalam u alaikum :)

excelent, barakallah,
Ameen. Jazakillah khayr.
Masha’Allah, great to know that!
Well I was once sitting on my bed, probably reading a textbook, and could hear the faint buzzing of a mosquito in my ear.
Before I started itching, she had bitten me five times on my foot already. Anopheles are all that…
lol My cousin saw my hands a while ago and he’s like what’s this? I said mosquito bites. I’ve got 67 on my hands and feet and he looks at me in a dirty way and says bas tu bhi Einstein he banay ga lol Wait are all female mosquitoes called Anopheles? I thought they were the specific ones that carried the malaria germs?
Mashallah. I twice had the opportunity to give azaan when there was no electricity in GIKI…..
Nice ma sha Allah :)
haha really nice and inspiring ma sha ALLAH.. :)
jazakillah khayr. All Praise be to Allah.
