Experience of flood relief! A thread

After overnight stay in Multan, medical team consisting of 20 (Doctors and paramedics) were divided into two groups. One was headed by Dr Ijaz (SMO Mayo Hos) and other by Dr Anjum Naseem (AP Anaesthesia, Services Hos).

#FloodsInPakistan
Day 1: we are dispatched towards Taunsa by Alkhidmat (Jamaat e Islami) with one ambulance full of medicines and paramedics, and other team to Rajanpur.

Taunsa barrage on our way was full to its maximum capacity.
We are contacted with local volunteers of Alkhidmat - Jamaat e Islami. (@AlkhidmatOrg) (@JIPOfficial)

Taunsa, hometown to Ex CM Punjab Buzdar, but basic life amenities were no where to be found. Flash flood from Koh e Suleiman range had devastated villages after villages.
Dykes were breached at three sites to save populated areas: Tibba Qaisarani, Retra, Rammak.

To reach our destination, we had to move off-road bypassing submerged commutable area.
Flood water had created earth fissures.

Acres and acres of paddy and cotton fields were destroyed. Our contact - Khurram bhai - had his 45 acres field destroyed by torrents of floods coming from koh e Suleiman.
No government’s administrative machinery was seen anywhere on the route and locals told that Alkhidmat was the only welfare org working during rescue and relief.

Camp was established at kalarwala, Naāri Janobi (Taunsa)!
Total patients: 175
Male: 51
Female: 52
Paeds: 72
Afterwards, ambulance was dispatched to Multan to refill medicine from Islamic Center (Alkhidmat - Jamaat e Islami Provincial HQ) and we spent night at Tibba Qaisarani
Day 2: we were dispatched to Pull Qambar.

Similar story:
- No government machinery anywhere
- Alkhidmat - JI, first one to reach the affected area, both during Rescue and Relief
- Had to move off road to reach destination (Basti Bahu Bekhaar بستی باہو بیگھاڑ)
Camp established.

Ambulance reached after refilling from Multan

Total patients: approx 295
Most patients in both camps presented with Gastrointestinal complaints and Skin diseases. Free medicines were provided by Alkhidmat - Jamaat e Islami.
From Taunsa, we were directed to reach DG khan. Tomorrow, camps will be established in flood hit areas of DG khan.
Day 3:

- dispatched to Chit Sarkani. Road was washed away in torrential waters.
- Ambulance and car couldn’t move any further. To reach the affected site, medical team needs to be on feet and supplies were transported by locals and paramedics of Alkhidmat
- Medical camp established @ Gothpur, Chit Sarkani, DG khan.

Total Patients: 101
M: 14
F: 15
Paeds: 72
Moved on to next location @ Basti Baju Khan, DG khan

F: 12
Paeds: 11
Third camp of day was established at Basti Malangaan, DG khan.

— Islamic Revival, Renaissance, Resurgence or Re-Awakening in words of its most ardent ideologues.

revealed purpose of Islam, that spiritual democracy which is the ultimate aim of Islam.”

Homosexuality and Islam: A thread.

Quranic Ayahs are very clear in contempt of this act; Nation of Lūt was annihilated because ‘they satisfied their desires from males instead of females’. Quran called homosexuality “Immoral”, anyone who commits it “transgressor”
And whenever, anyone tries to confront Nation of Lūt, they would reply: ”Evict them (who confronts) from your city who keep themselves pure.”
Afterwards, there was rain of stones because of their refusal to act upon Allah’s message, which ended those ‘criminals’. [Al-A’raf 80-84]
Quran has thus categorically described it as a despicable act and worst type of Sin to commit.

There was no reported case in life of Prophet SAW but he SAW ordered to kill both, Fael (Active) & Maf’oul (passive participant), in case any such case was reported to state officials.
