October in my life - Yaad e Maazi Khoob Hai ya Rub, Kabhi na cheenna hafza mera

The month of October has a great significance in my life. It's brought many new events and unforgettable moments, some of them are pleasing & attractive while others are horrible and terrible experiences. One of the latest is the earth quack of 11th October 2010 0245 a.m. and simultaneously another one was 8th October 2005 0800 a.m.( one of the largest earth quack of the World) followed with thousands of after shocks. The  hidden power of shaking the earth, huge mountain was a miserable experience.
 The marriage ceremony of my son Hyder with Rabbiya held on 10 October 2008 followed by a grand reception at Gulf court Rawalpindi was a remarkable event. An addition of a lovely lady who is from a Zaidi family originated from Hamdan Iran and presently settled in  Rawalpindi, was warmly welcomed by all family members.            
                                                                                                                                                           Bhaijan (Akbar Bilgrami) marriage 15th October 1965 and a reception at R 1107/17 Federal B Area was a new experiment and excitement for such arrangements of  a lovely occasion, likewise the addition of young beautiful lady Bhabijan (Shama Bilgrami) in our family, was the happiness for all members of our family.

.   Our daughter Rabab was born on 1st October 1972 in Karachi at Imam Memeorail Hospital, and his youngest son and our grand son Hasnain was born on 13th October 2006 in Islamabad at Talia Clinic. Both mother and son are attractive personality and liked by other family members equally.

     I joined National Shipping Corporation ( Now well known as  PNSC) in Octoiber 1964 . NSC (PNSC) was highest paid employer in Pakistan in 1969-74  even their drivers and head peon were liable to pay Income tax.                                                                                                         
First time, I was separated from my family (wife, 3 children & Amman Plus parents and all other relatives in Karachi) in October 1974 as planned to go to Canada but later stuck in Bahrain, Arabian Gulf.                 

      I resigned from National Shipping of Company of Saudi Arabia the fifth largest company of  KSA in October 1992 for final departure to Karachi in connection with marriages of  daughters. .                                                                                                                                             
Sad demise of  Pappa (Zair Hasnain Jafri ) on 18th October 1994 was certainly a great loss of  a loving and caring father in law.                                                                   .                                                                                                                                                                    A life imprisonment with hardship was one of the most loving experience of life in the shape of Marriage on 12 October 1967. This wedding awarded me the best jailer in shape of wife Farrukh Fatima Jafri (my Jeem) who made the environment of this jail so beautiful, lovable and caring that --(-" Itne man'noose say'yad se hoe gaye ki ab rihaye miley gee toe mer jain gey.") today I can quote for her "One of the best life partner for me, a good daughter for her parents, a good daughter in law who cared Amman (mujh ko palne wali khala) until her death and last days of Baji Amman (my mother) on her death bed, a good sister for her brothers & sisters, a good sister law & mother in law and over all the best mother and grand mother and friend for all, She hardly speaks bad for some-one, and well-wisher for all for ever. Today is12 October 2010 and I have successfully passed my 43 years of married life and Alhamdulilah that all things are like the same as longtime back I dreamed it for.
Bride Ist visited  to R-1107/17 and Hadees Kasa was read there. The reason for this was that bride steps should be at own home, more-over there should not be any different status than the first one.   
There were memorable events on marriage day, following day and reception (Valima) on 14th October 1967  at Aisha Manzil, number of persons from Office (NSC) Bhaijan & Aktar friends family members & relatives, neighbours and few close ones attended it.
