عزیزان محترم، میں نے جنوری 2016میں ’ہم سب‘ پر کام شروع کیا تھا۔ تحسین یا دشنام سے بے نیاز ہو کر گیارہ برس تک اسے ایک اجتماعی اخلاقی ذمہ داری سمجھا اور نبھایا۔ اب ایک ذاتی سبب درپیش ہے۔ چنانچہ20 اپریل سے مئی کے آخری ہفتے تک کے لئے رخصت چاہتا ہوں۔ جیتے رہے تو پھر ملاقات ہو گی۔ اس دوران جو دوست اپنی تحریریں ’ہم سب‘ کے لئے بھیجنا چاہیں، ذیل کے ای میل پہ ارسال کر سکے ہیں۔ Articles@humsub.com.pk wm@humsub.com.pk میں آپ سب کی محبت، مہربانی اور شفقت پر تہ دل سے شکر گزار ہوں

ہمارے باخبر صحافی آبنائے ہرمز سے اندر کی خبریں دے رہے ہوتے ہیں مگر ان کے پاس فیض آباد کی معلومات بھی نہیں ہوتیں۔دو دن سے سن رہا ہوں ،راولپنڈی اور اسلام آباد کے تمام اڈے بند کردیئے  گئے ہیں، پبلک ٹرانسپورٹ نہیں آئے گی، تعلیمی اداروں میں بھی چھٹی ۔ اگرچہ ضلعی انتظامیہ تردید کرچکی ہے تاہم باخبر صحافیوں کے بار بار مطلع کرنے پر سوچاکیوں نہ اپنے طور پر تصدیق کی جائے۔ آج یعنی اتوار صبح کم ازکم تین اڈوں پر کال کی تو پتہ چلا تمام روٹس پر مسافر بسیں معمول کے مطابق چل رہی ہیں۔ چلیں انٹرنیشنل ایشوز تک آپ کی رسائی نہیں مگر کوئی خبر دینے سے پہلے جڑواں شہروں سے تصدیق کرنا کتنا مشکل کام ہے؟

Instead of watching Netflix tonight, watch this 2-hour Stanford lecture. You’ll learn more about how ChatGPT, Claude, and other LLMs are built than most people at top AI companies learn in years.

After the clouds of tension have cleared, it is time to visit the land of resilience and loyalty. I am thrilled to announce my upcoming trip to Pakistan 🇵🇰. ​My first stop will undoubtedly be the magnificent Faisal Mosque in Islamabad—a symbol of the eternal brotherhood between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Looking forward to meeting my brothers and sisters in the land of the pure. ​کشیدگی کے بادل چھٹنے کے بعد، اب وقت آگیا ہے کہ وفا اور ہمت کی سرزمین کا رخ کیا جائے۔ مجھے یہ بتاتے ہوئے بہت خوشی ہو رہی ہے کہ میں جلد پاکستان کا دورہ کر رہا ہوں۔ 🇵🇰 ​میرا پہلا پڑاؤ بلاشبہ اسلام آباد کی عظیم فیصل مسجد ہوگی—جو سعودی عرب اور پاکستان کے درمیان ابدی بھائی چارے کی علامت ہے۔ پاک سرزمین پر اپنے بھائیوں اور بہنوں سے ملنے کا منتظر ہوں۔ ​See you soon, Pakistan! 🇸🇦🤝🇵🇰 ​#Pakistan #SaudiArabia #FaisalMosque #PakistanZindabad #SaudiPakistanDosti

وَإِن جَنَحُوا لِلسَّلْمِ فَاجْنَحْ لَهَا وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ “And if they incline to peace, then incline to it [also] and rely upon Allah.” (Qur’an 8:61) Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar offering prayers at Masjid an-Nabawi at a critical moment. In Islam, we turn to Allah Almighty and His Messenger ﷺ in times of trial—seeking guidance, humility, and strength. As Pakistan works to bring this war to an end, this moment reflects that intention—to act with sincerity, prevent further loss, and uphold stability. We pray that they, along with Field Marshal Asim Munir, succeed in this noble mission—to prevent a wider catastrophe, to safeguard humanity, and to carry forward a role that elevates Pakistan globally for the very purpose for which it was created. #Pakistan #StraitOfHormuz #IranWar #USIran #EnergySecurity #GulfSecurity #Geopolitics #MaritimeSecurity #OilMarkets #PakistanLeads #PakistanDiplomacy #ISPR #PakistanZindabad #PMOPakistan #ForeignOfficePK #GovtofPakistan #ISPROfficial | @CMShehbaz @MIshaqDar50 @OfficialDGISPR @ForeignOfficePk @GovtofPakistan | @WhiteHouse @VP @StateDept @CENTCOM @mosharrafzaidi @Kamran_Yousaf @AajKamranKhan

Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir is drawing international attention as an organic wave of social media commentary highlights his role in ongoing diplomatic efforts amid rising Middle East tensions. The hashtag #CDFGlobalPeaceMaker has been gaining traction, with users pointing to his measured and calculated leadership style during a particularly volatile period. Observers note that much of the online response centers on Munir’s emphasis on dialogue and de-escalation, especially as Pakistan continues to facilitate sensitive engagements between regional and global actors. His recent visit to Tehran, carried out at a time of heightened risk, is being widely referenced as a significant diplomatic move aimed at supporting fragile peace efforts. Analysts say the reaction reflects broader recognition of Pakistan’s growing involvement in mediation and backchannel diplomacy, particularly in the context of efforts to sustain a ceasefire and encourage further negotiations. Munir’s engagements with Iranian leadership are seen as part of a wider strategy to reduce tensions and maintain open lines of communication. While social media responses are varied, the emerging trend underscores increasing international focus on Pakistan’s role in conflict de-escalation, with Field Marshal Munir’s leadership being viewed by many as a key component of that diplomatic push. #BreakingNews #AsimMunir #Pakistan #Diplomacy #MiddleEast #OceanNewsUK #UK #Ocean #breaking #latest #London More On: oceannewsuk.com 📺Satellite - Asiasat7: Frequency 3880 H, Symbol Rate: 29720
