A Prayer at the Railway Station
A Prayer at the Railway Station By Alisha Aslam It was a long time ago, a chilly dawn at Multan Railway Station. I had just finished my morning prayer in the waiting room and was raising my hands for supplication when a young woman in a black veil entered the room. Before she could say anything, I quickly ended my prayer, stood up, and rushed outside without responding. At that time, my life was full of turmoil. I was caught in a dangerous land dispute. My opponents were determined to kill me, and I lived in constant fear. As I left the waiting room, I thought, perhaps this woman was sent by my enemies to trap me. The thought wasn’t unreasonable — the same men who wanted me dead had followed me from Sahiwal. When the midnight train left Sahiwal, they were there on the platform. I sat quietly on a bench, pretending not to notice, but they sat down just a few feet away. I waited for the whistle, hoping they would board first so I could slip into another compartment. But their sharp eyes didn’t leave me for a second. When the train was about to depart, I suddenly dashed across the tracks and jumped into a carriage near the engine. They came running after me, but before they could reach, I hid inside the lavatory. The train began to move, and when they didn’t find me, they entered another compartment. At four in the morning, the train reached Multan. I knew they would not give up easily. As I looked out from the carriage, I saw them taking positions near both exits of the platform. Somehow, I managed to slip past them unnoticed and entered the waiting room again — tired, scared, and hopeless. As soon as I finished praying, the same veiled girl appeared. My heart raced. I thought again — Was she following me too? But her trembling hands and nervous tone told another story. I asked sharply, “What business do you have entering the men’s waiting room at this hour?” In a soft, broken voice she replied, “I’m… I’m sorry. I just wanted to ask you something.” She was visibly shaken, barely able to stand. Seeing her condition, my suspicion turned into sympathy. “Alright,” I said gently. “Tell me, what’s the matter?” She hesitated, then began to speak — haltingly at first, and then all at once. Her story was heartbreakingly familiar. She too was a victim of injustice. Her family’s land allotment had been unfairly cancelled, and her rivals were harassing her just as mine had done to me. For a long time, we sat in silence after she finished. Finally, I said, “We are both victims of this cruel system. Don’t lose hope. God is just — He may be slow, but never blind.” We decided to go together to the Commissioner’s office to submit our appeals. But finding our case files was no easy task. As we waited, she told me her situation had become dire — her mother had sold her last piece of jewelry, leaving only fifty rupees for their survival. My own financial state wasn’t much better. Yet, I felt in my heart that our days of hardship were coming to an end. By afternoon, both of us had our case files ready. Now we needed a lawyer — but neither of us had the money to hire one. Fate intervened. My case was called first. The officer in charge was a fair man. He listened patiently, examined the evidence, and to my great relief, ruled in my favor. But as soon as my case ended, the girl’s hearing began. I stood near her, anxious. When her opponents began to twist the facts, I couldn’t stay silent. I spoke up, trying to explain her side to the officer. Her opponent’s lawyer objected immediately. “He’s not a lawyer,” he shouted. “He’s not even the claimant. What right does he have to speak?” The officer turned to me. Calmly, I said, “Sir, the poor cannot afford lawyers. This girl and her mother have no one to defend them. Please allow me to speak — not as a lawyer, but as a son speaking for a mother and sister in distress.” The officer nodded. “Go ahead,” he said. The rival’s lawyer argued for an hour, quoting laws and precedents. I spoke only for a few minutes, from the heart — about fairness, truth, and the cruelty of the powerful. When I finished, the courtroom fell silent. The officer leaned back in his chair and said, “Justice belongs to the oppressed.” Then, with a firm voice, he announced his verdict — in favor of the girl and her mother. As we stepped outside the courtroom, tears fell onto my shoes. The mother and daughter were crying — not from sadness, but from relief. The old woman kissed my forehead, and the girl clung to my arm, speechless. Just then, a man from another faction — enemies of their rivals — approached us. He offered us twenty-five hundred rupees as an advance to lease the disputed land. “Take the money,” he said. “We’ll handle the rest.” We accepted the offer, signed the receipt, and suddenly it felt as though a mountain had been lifted from our shoulders. Before parting, the girl’s mother prayed for me with tears in her eyes. I returned home that evening to tell my parents the good news — not just of justice served, but of faith restored. Even today, I can still feel those two tears on my feet — the purest gratitude I have ever known.

The Legacy of Blood and Sacrifice
The Legacy of Blood and Sacrifice Author: Riaz Ahmad Justice --- “Son,” the old man began, his eyes glistening with unspoken memories. “My father gave his life for this country in 1965, defending its honor with his blood. Your grandmother wanted me to follow the same path — to join the army, serve the nation, and, if destiny allowed, embrace martyrdom like my father and brother before me. But I was weak then… frightened. I ran away from home.” His voice trembled as the past unfolded. “I was barely thirteen. I left the village and went to the city, thinking I could escape my fears. Time passed. I grew older, busier, lost in the noise of life. But no matter how many years went by, I could never erase the voice of my mother calling after me: ‘Son, come home before sunset, or you’ll lose your way in the dark.’ That one mistake — that single act of cowardice — cost me my paradise. I left behind not just my home, but my heaven: my mother.” Tears rolled down his wrinkled cheeks. “Even after all these years, I can’t forget her. I still dream of kneeling to kiss her feet — but that wish will never come true. Life, my son, is only a temporary trust from God. I didn’t understand it then, but I know now: when a soldier sacrifices his life for his country, the whole nation stands taller. A martyr’s death gives life to his people.” He took a deep breath, holding a faded photograph close to his chest. “Today, we deny the very blood that runs in our veins. I wish I could tell the world that my mother was innocent — that she raised sons of heroes. My father, my brother, and later my mother too — they all offered their lives for this sacred soil. They watered it with their sacrifice so that we could live in freedom.” His son, Shahzaib, watched quietly as his father wept. He gently wiped his tears and said softly, “Father, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful. If you’ve repented with a sincere heart, He will surely forgive you. He knows what’s inside our hearts.” That night, Shahzaib placed the old photographs of his forefathers on the table and made a promise: “When I grow up, I’ll join the army — just like my grandfather and uncle. I’ll serve this country with honor.” Years passed. Shahzaib kept his promise. He grew into a brave young man and joined the Pakistan Army. Soon after completing his training, he was deployed to the Swat Valley, where the army was conducting operations against terrorists. One dark night, the enemy launched a sudden attack on their post. Shahzaib and his fellow soldiers fought back fiercely. The air was filled with the thunder of gunfire, but their courage never wavered. The attack was repelled, and the enemy suffered heavy losses. Among those who fought the hardest was Shahzaib. His heart burned with love for his homeland — a love passed down through generations of sacrifice. During the crossfire, a bullet struck his legs, shattering them, yet he refused to retreat. He kept fighting until the last of the attackers fell. When the battle ended, Shahzaib was critically wounded. Both of his legs had to be amputated. The army honored his bravery, but his active service came to an end. After recovery, he was retired with full respect. Instead of sinking into despair, Shahzaib found a new mission. He turned his pain into purpose. Using the land his grandfather had once received from the government as a reward for valor, he built a religious school, a hospital, a playground for children, and an old age home. That old age home became a sanctuary for the forgotten — the poor, the abandoned, the elderly who had no one left in the world. Shahzaib opened offices across the country to find such people and bring them to his care center, where they were treated with dignity and love, completely free of cost. When he grew old, someone once asked him why he had chosen this path. He smiled and said, “These lands were once a gift to my grandfather from the government — a reward for his service. I simply returned that gift to the nation. I fulfilled my duty by using what was entrusted to me for the good of others. You could say that I’ve returned the government’s gift back to its rightful owner.” He paused for a moment, looking toward the horizon where the sun was setting — the same sunset his grandmother had once warned about. “Life comes full circle,” he whispered. “Those who decide to live for others never die. Their names become light for generations to come.” Indeed, Shahzaib’s story became a beacon of hope — a living reminder that real heroes don’t just fight wars; they heal their nation’s wounds. And as his life drew to a close, people said of him what he had once said of his forefathers: > “The blood of martyrs never dries — it blossoms again and again, in the hearts of those who still love their land.”
