A.o.A
I dont read blogs as hobby but heard that twitter was banned and in google got this site. I like it very much so i appreciate the blogger for posting his contents with such quick updates.
Every one has his own opinion so i will not criticise others but in my opinion, we should completely stop using those social networks.
When for the first time facebook provided the platform for posting the cartoons, i stopped using that, then i stopped using youtube. Now i have about 4 twitter accounts zambeel, moneyflora and pk_rack i have good followers and i am getting good visitors via the first account but i am going to deactivate em all coz as a Muslim, Islam and its respect should be our first priority. We shouldnt care that we will lose connections with forgien friends as will feel a bit shy if we dont use facebook (some people think that having a fb id is modernship.) if a person is abusing you and another person gives a loudspeaker to him then what will be your response? You will be angered on the second man more than the first coz he is helping him.
As far as i know, the shit day which they celebrate is like a slow poison, they are making it a habbit for us so that one day, no one will object it and at that day, our hearts will be empty of Eman.
When “FIRghon” was announcing himself as god, he called his minister and asked for suggestions, he told him that wait, when i tell you, you should then announce.
After that the minister went to bazar and peeled the skin of a live hen. The people beated him badly.
At second day he did it again, again he was beated but a bit less at third day he was just abused. He did it for a month and at the end of month, the people gived him no attention.
Then he went to firghon and told him to announce now. He announced and no one objected that.
Same is the case here. Last year, people were protesting, newspaper were full of news regarding it, this year only few people got hurted who tried to awake our deep sleeping emaan, next year may be the number decrease and at the end (Allah may at least take me before seeing such era) may be Muslims see there cartoons for fun.
In last sorry for my bad english (coz my father was not from england) and sorry if some one get hurted or felt uneasy with my comment. W.SALAM

Dear Shahid Saleem Sahib,

1. Ofcourse this website propakistani, is the ONLY site which I regularly visit with the purpose of getting latest IT related information.

2. My Holy Prophet (PBUH) is very very much important for me and I am proud to LOVE him like every true muslim. Whenever I find anything about him on this website it attracts my attention and I DO READ and REPLY to such blog comments. If it is a wastage of time then I am proud to do so…

I simply want to share my personal experience with all people here. I used to waste atleast an hour a day on FaceBook and Twitter. Now, I donot use Twitter or FaceBook anymore because of such issues. Now I am better utilizing the time which I used to waste on these socalled social networking websites. I give more time to my family, friends, etc. and my personal life has become more happy and productive.

– For instance such news do result sudden decrease in company share-value in stock-exchanges and company’s repute among investing lobbies and global marketing agencies etc.

They’re not. How many users on Twitter are from Pakistan? very very few.

What I understood so far, one-day ban is not more than a symbolic protest from Pakistan on no proper reply or action taken by Tweeter on Pakistan’s request to consider such hatred activities going on their platform. From this prospective I believe this must have signaled the sensitivity of the issue at some levels across the world.

On other hand, in general such bans do have effect at geo-political and economic levels. For instance such news do result sudden decrease in company share-value in stock-exchanges and company’s repute among investing lobbies and global marketing agencies etc.

No business-man can afford bad-repute to his company and/or product. And here the real question rises that why such successful business giants running Tweeter and Facebook intestinally taking such risk to their business…??
