It’s been 40 days since the martyrdom of Imam Hussain Ibne Ali, his family and companions at Karbala by the forces of Yazid (r. 680–683). The women and children were taken captive after Karbala and taken to Kufa and then Damascus, where Zaynab (sister of Imam Hussain) gave impassioned speeches, condemning Yazid and spreading the news of massacres of Karbala. لبیک یا حسین علیہ السلام

It's always an honor to represent my alma mater @gcuniversitylhr and @GcuWDC

Exciting times: our first Open Day @gcuniversitylhr 📚✨ 📍 Our historic Bukhari Auditorium and its surroundings came alive as every academic department proudly showcased its unique offerings at their stalls. Passionate, competent faculty members and staff were present to guide aspiring students through various disciplines, facilities, and the boundless prospects that await. 🌟 🤝 A special highlight of our university is our vibrant student societies that foster leadership, creativity, and community engagement. These student societies, the heart of our campus, were out in full force, sharing their experiences, projects, and activities that enrich the academic journey throughout the year. 🚀 Upholding our commitment to creating a safe and respectful environment, the Anti-Harassment Committee of our university was also present. Distinguished senior female professors explained the laws, policies, and safeguards that have been put in place to ensure a harassment-free campus. Let me reaffirm, GC University Lahore maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of harassment. Your safety and well-being are our utmost priorities. 🛡️ As the Vice-Chancellor, I couldn't be prouder of the collective spirit and dedication that was on display during the Open Day.

Don't you agree that the world seems like a better place after drinking a cup of chai in the morning? After all, your morning hasn't properly begun unless you've had a piping hot glass of cutting chai-a frothy concoction of milk, loose tea leaves, spices and sugar. Once this mix has been hardboiled to an earthy brown colour, you know it's ready to be poured into tiny glasses that are also almost synonymous with chai in tea stalls across the nation. In today’s fast-changing world, when everyone is glued to their screens, for some just leaving their house and going out for a cup of chai which they enjoy with their newspaper is enough. That’s the beauty of living an easygoing life, a callback to simpler times when we enjoyed and lived every moment to its fullest. So, what's your favourite way to enjoy chai? Let us know in the comments below.
