My Tryst with Urdu and Journey so far:

 -

By: Iqbal Sattar

Dear friend.

I was educated up to 3rd standard in Dharwad in Government Urdu School. Our Teacher with white pagadi and hanging back portion was so nice. My father was an Education officer in Dharwad. He established many Urdu Schools, in Dharwad, Bijapur, Belgaum and Karwar. He used his approach to Urdu Schools in villages for community outreach.


I completed my 7th in Belgaum Government Urdu School and SSC ie XIth in Islamiya High School Camp Belgaum. These 11 years of Urdu medium strengthen my love for Education. The teachers in those days were devoted.


Our Headmasters and principal Late Adam Jamadar, were great personalities. 


Library, newspaper, reading books, discussion, allocution competitions, sports, science exhibition, and Drama competition were part of Education.


We learnt good English, Persian, Kannada and Marathi along with Urdu. The interaction with teachers was wonderful. My principal had called me in his office and corrected my Aswersheet for 3 hours. Each and every word and line he read and explained my mistakes. At that time he had had told me Urdu Couplets are Allexire (Abe Hayat) for brain development.


We worked for the garden, School building, extempore speeches, poetry and discussion. As a result, our batch was containing students from well-off parents and our entire batch had successful careers in their lives.


When we gathered after many years. We attributed our success of the batch to our devoted Teachers.


After B.Sc., I joined SFRC Coimbatore after a tough selection procedure and training in forestry. When I was joining my first posting in Sawantwadi my father advised me to be in touch with Urdu Schools, wherever you are posted. What a great vision.


I served in 6 Districts of Western Maharashtra and Konkan. I had a chance to be in touch with more than 200 Urdu medium Schools. My final interaction was with Azam Campus Pune. Where I met Dr.P.A.inamdar.He advised me to join my native School in Kudachi after retirement and work for community development.


When I joined Junnediya High School, Kudachi.We had 1000 students with 15 classrooms.


I could collect funds from India and abroad and constructed 40 classrooms School Building. With present strength of 3000 students.


Now zeal for Urdu medium School is weakening and the tendency of English medium is increasing. So we had Junnediya English medium School established along with Three computer Labs and Robotic Labs.


Now I have taken another 40 classroom project for English medium School. The Project is underway. We are getting financial support from our friends.


We have all three Mediums.ie Urdu, Kannada and English. But the parents are more inclined towards English Medium. We can't help.


In JEMS we have English, Kannada and Hindi languages. In addition, we have Urdu and Persian Diplomas financed by NCPUL, New Delhi.


Robotic Lab is financed by NITI Ayog. My Education, Service and my retirement years were my trysts with Urdu.


But I had an occasion to learn Urdu, Kannada, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Arabic, Persian, English, Russian and Tagalo in Phillippines.


I am very happy with whatever I have done for Urdu and community. Everready to share my experience regarding Infrastructure Funding, Computer, NCPUL, Robotics, Artificial intelligence, Arduino, 3D printing, Augmented reality, Please feel free to share knowledge and ideas with me one to one.

 - (external source) 🌷 *Whatever Allaah does......it's for our best*🌷 When my daughter was 2 years old, she loved to play with the water in the toilet bowl.  Yes, that's right.... *the toilet bowl!!* Yuck!!  That's nasty...you would say!!  But to *her*, that was the *delight of the day!*  Splish...splash!  To her innocent mind, there was nothing like it!  And so when I would prevent her from playing with it, she would scream and cry and wouldn't want to stop.  She didn't understand how harmful that was for her.  In her little brain, I took away something that she really enjoyed.   And when I would take her to the doctor to have her immunization shots, she wouldn't understand that either.  She would *howl* at the top of her lungs at the first sight of the needle and would run the other way.  It would take two of us just to hold her down!  To her, it was nothing but *torture*!  Her innocent little mind...

A believer's story of a Quarintine:

Assalamu Alaikum  Alhamdhulillah ... By the grace of Almighty Allah, I reached home yesterday by the Delhi... Trivandrum special train.  And now I'm under home quarantine for two weeks in the upper flat of our residence. My children and grandchildren are all away, so strict quarantine is made easy.  I request you all to make Dhua for ease.    We started for Nizaamudheen on the 11th of February, from Kollam ( Ab. Kareem Sb of Poredam, Thaha Sr of Pattazy and myself ), to spend two months in Nizaamudheen Markaz for Thartheeb. But eventually, as you know, things took a different course.  Insha Allah, it will be exactly 4 months on 11th June, when we finish the ongoing quarantine.     We were put in forced quarantine for 58 days in 4 different quarantine camps in Delhi without periodic tests. The entire Ramadhaan and Edul Fithr was spent in the camps. We had the unique distinction of having total vegitarian food for a full Ramadhaan and even on t...

Why Pork (pig meat) is Haram in Islam? Some scientific observations:

Why Pork is Haram in Islam ~ In the Qur'an Allah has forbidden pork. Do you know that pork is forbidden by Jews, and its forbidden in Bible too. 15 Things You Should Know About Pigs: 1) A pig is a real garbage gut. It will eat anything including urine, excrement, dirt, decaying animal flesh, maggots, or decaying vegetables. They will even eat the cancerous growths off other pigs or animals. 2) The meat and fat of a pig absorbs toxins like a sponge. Their meat can be 30 times more toxic than beef or venison. 3) When eating beef or venison, it takes 8 to 9 hours to digest the meat so what little toxins are in the meat are slowly put into our system and can be filtered by the liver. But when pork is eaten, it takes only 4 hours to digest the meat. We thus get a much higher level of toxins within a shorter time. 4) Unlike other mammals, a pig does not sweat or perspire. Perspiration is a means by which toxins are removed from the body. Since a pig does not sweat, the toxins re...

 - While majority are celebrating Teacher's Day, below is my reflection about a teacher: *Prophet Muhammad: A Teacher for All Times* Prophet Muhammad, the prophet of Islam, is not only revered as a religious figure but is also celebrated as a remarkable teacher whose teachings continue to inspire and guide millions of people across the globe. His role as a teacher extends far beyond the boundaries of religion, and his teachings serve as a timeless source of wisdom and guidance for people of all backgrounds and beliefs. *The Role of Prophet Muhammad as a Teacher Moral and Ethical Guidance:*   Prophet Muhammad’s teachings are characterized by a strong emphasis on moral and ethical values. He taught the importance of honesty, integrity, compassion, and justice. His actions and sayings, recorded in Hadiths (sayings and actions of the Prophet), provide a profound moral compass for individuals striving to lead virtuous lives. *Social Justice:* The Prophet advocated for social justic...
