The holy month of Ramadan is here. Like rest of the Muslim ummah, Multani-ites are busy in collecting the bounties of religious blessings, by fasting & offering prayers to Allah Almighty. Ramadan is meant for charity, compassion & togetherness. The Sehris, aftaris & taraweehs are such interesting religious obligations, which encourage Muslims to socialize within their community. And Multani-ites, like every time of the year are too willing to share their lives, with their friends & families.
Mrs. Anjum Sohail's name is neither unfamiliar to the followers of this blog, nor for the residents of this city. But in case, it is new to you, check this post, which provides a complete introduction to the towering personality of the lady, http://farihamunirshahtimes.blogspot.com/2012/05/sos-committee-by-mrs-anjum-sohail.html
Friday 28th July, when the world remained awake to witness the opening ceremony of London olympics, 2012. Multani-ites had another event to look forward to. Being a religious, Islamic lady Mrs. Anjum Sohail, had arranged an exquisite assemblage to celebrate, her love for 'Naat or Nasheed' (in case you are not aware of, it is a religious song to praise the personality of the last prophet of Islam, Mohammed, peace be upon him).
The most interesting feature of this function was, the timing. Thoughtfully selected, 10 pm to 12 am; a time, when people are over with fasting & other religious requirements of Ramadan, like taraweeh, etc. And look forward to being entertained. For them, an exuberant get together, all laid with elegant flower arrangements, in the air-conditioned halls of Ramada (during this humid, mid-summer) was more like some affair of the celestial kind.
Polite and gentle, sweet and humble, Mrs. Anjum Sohail personally looked after, all her guests. Separate areas were created for the sitting of ladies & gentlemen. A beautiful partition was created with real Jasmine flowers curtains. The stage for the performers was set in the males' area but a big screen was arranged in the ladies' area to provide them a complete view of the amazing performance. At the end of the performance, guests were entertained with scrumptious treats.
Ever so enchanting & beautiful Saima Faisal was present at the occasion to support her sister-in- law. So was, Anjum's loving sister Mrs. Zeba Javed, along with their brother, Mr. Faisal. As already mentioned in the previous post, all these family members possess a celebrity status in our city of saints. But more because of their humility & caring attitude, though, they have everything on the social and economic grounds to be proud of.
Hats of to you, Mrs. Anjum Sohail for arranging another remarkable event.
It is true, beautiful people deliver, beautiful things.
