Flashpoint 2025: The India-Pakistan Conflict Escalates
In May 2025, the longstanding tensions between India and Pakistan escalated dramatically, bringing the two nuclear-armed nations perilously close to full-scale war. The immediate catalyst was a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Indian-administered Kashmir, on April 22, which resulted in the deaths of 28 civilians, predominantly Hindu tourists. India attributed the attack to Pakistan-based militant groups, notably Lashkar-e-Taiba, a claim Pakistan vehemently denied.

Confessions of a Serial Story Starter
It started innocently enough, like all bad habits. A blank page, an idea swirling in my head, and the thrill of possibility. I’d stare at the cursor blinking, my mind racing with all the potential. I was a creator, a storyteller. And yet, despite all my enthusiasm, I had a dark secret that no one knew.

The role and conspiracy of the state behind the anti-Muslim riots in India
The role and conspiracy of the state behind anti-Muslim riots in India In the history of India, riots have become an inevitable social disease, which always falls on a specific group of society - Muslims. But these are not simply the result of sudden excitement of the public, but rather the result of the active role, planned neglect and sometimes direct provocation of the state. Anti-Muslim riots in India have never been neutral social conflicts; rather, it has been seen that the administration, police and political leadership have somehow tolerated it, remained indifferent or directly led it. To understand this trend, we need to look at some of the most discussed riots in Indian history, the real context behind them, and how the state played a role in causing, continuing and later covering up this violence.

Accountability of rulers and statesmen: How leadership is controlled in Islamic states.
When governance is conducted according to Islamic principles, leadership is not a center of power, but a formidable responsibility. In Islam, the ruler or leader considers himself the guardian of the people, and conducts every decision and action out of fear of accountability before Allah. This is the characteristic of the Islamic state system — where leadership is not a royal position, but a solid trust.

“Hindu caste system and oppression of lower castes”
An integral yet painful reality of Indian society is the caste system and the millennia-long oppression of the lower classes of society based on it. This caste-based division is not just a social structure; it is a cultural, religious and political chain that has forced millions of people to suffer a kind of birthright punishment for centuries. This system has its origins in the Brahmanical stream of Hinduism and its scriptures, where society is basically divided into four castes—Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Shudras. Beyond this, the large population that is identified as “untouchables” or “untouchables” is today’s Dalits or the so-called lower castes.

A Writer’s Journey: Through Silence and Words
From the small, slanted window of my attic room, golden light spilled across the pages of my earliest stories. That window was my only connection to the world outside—a world that bustled and buzzed with life, while I remained cocooned in the quiet solitude of my tiny space. The dust danced in the sunlight, settling softly on stacks of half-finished drafts, crumpled papers, and cold coffee cups scattered across the floor.

After the stars fell
Write a story after the happily ever after I often wondered what love is. Is it truly the warm, fuzzy emotions that ooze out of true mirth of care and adore, or is it a product of prevalent capitalism that exists within our world? That makes it easy for the consumeristic and hyperagile construct to sell products to the humans as a marketing tactic, to slip in through the psyche of innocent minds, to create a buzz, to find their weaklings and exploit them for company profits and expansions.

Slavery in Islam vs. Modern Slavery: Does Freedom Really Exist?
Slavery is a cruel reality in the pages of history. Humans have been bought, sold, and used as mere objects by humans. Slavery was once legal and normal in almost all civilizations of the world—be it Greece and Rome, India, or China. Islam came into that context. But Islam did not support slavery; rather, it gradually showed the way to its extinction through a new moral and social revolution—through humanity, responsibility, and liberation.
