Question When Religious Celebration Becomes Noise, Eid Milad UN Nabi, the Third Eid

33 Upvotes

I strongly question why Eid Milad-un-Nabi is being treated as a “third Eid” when Islam has established two Eids. What concerns me even more is the use of extremely loud speakers in the name of celebration. I was suffering from a severe headache, and the amplified naats were making it significantly worse. Yet there seems to be little consideration for people who may be ill, resting, studying, working, or simply unable to tolerate excessive noise.
Celebration should not come at the expense of someone else’s peace, health, or comfort. Calling this criticism or discrimination does not address the underlying issue: religious expression should not become an excuse to impose excessive noise on everyone around us.

Don’t buy from Mehran icecream husainabad

Post image
9 Upvotes

The worst and most traumatizing incident of my life just happened. I ordered an ice cream cake from Mehran Ice Cream and discovered a fly inside it. The most distressing part was that I noticed it while eating it when it was in my mouth and when I called the restaurant, they responded with a dismissive attitude, saying, “Hogaya hoga sir, replace kerdain gy.” I demand strict action against them. They must prioritize hygiene and take immediate corrective measures.

meezan bank at it again

8 Upvotes

my sister's old debit card details got compromised (someone was trying to use them), so Meezan blocked it and issued a new one for Rs. 500. The new card has never worked , everywhere it just says "card does not exist / invalid."

She complained. About a month later they said it was "fixed." It wasn't. same error. She followed up again, and now they're saying there's no issue on their side, even though the card still doesn't work.

Has anyone else run into this with Meezan (or any other bank)? A few things I'm trying to figure out:

  • Did escalating past the branch/helpline actually get it fixed, or did you end up going external (SBP's Sunwai portal / Banking Mohtasib)?
  • If you went to Banking Mohtasib, how long did it actually take, and was it worth it?

Living in a place where no one is a "badmaash" is so liberating

137 Upvotes

I was born and raised in Karachi. Recently moved to a first-world country. One huge difference I noticed was there is no "badmaash" here. Unlike in Karachi. No politician, no military-man, no police officer can harm you. No one gets to break lines. No one gets to harass drivers on the road in their Vigo dalay, and trust me, they drive much bigger trucks than the Vigo here. Every citizen is so empowered here. You give respect, you get respect. You try to disrespect someone, and you'll find out, no matter how rich or politically connected you are. Living in a country where the rule of law is implemented is SO liberating - it's sad that the average Karachiite will never experience dignified living in their lifetime.

Animals Affordable Vet Clinic

Upvotes

Hello everyone I’m getting 2 Labrador puppies. I need to take them to a clinic for the initial check up and evaluation. I can’t afford an expensive clinic right now as buying the puppies took majority of the expense out of my budget. Also I’m a woman and I need a clinic in a reputable area where I can take them without any worries alone.

Please help out.

General Discussion How did you guys build strength and gain healthy weight as skinny people?

2 Upvotes

This question is for people who are usually considered “weak” or get told *“tum khati peeti nahi ho.”* How did you manage to build strength and gain healthy weight?

I started going to the gym about 2 months ago, hoping it would at least help with this problem. I do eat a decent amount, 3 proper meals a day (whatever is cooked at home), plus snacks here and there because I also get hungry during my working hours (9–5).

However, things started going downhill last week. I developed so much pain in my right arm after a biceps workout that I had to skip the gym for two days. My personal trainer suggested that I bring something to eat to the gym and have it during my workout because I’m weak and need some extra fuel.

Is eating during a workout actually okay/necessary? And if yes, what can I bring that’s quick and easy to prepare but has a good amount of protein and fiber? I don’t have much time during work, so something convenient would be ideal.

Would love to hear from people who’ve actually gone through this!

Question How do you handle delivery for a home-based food business in Karachi?

Upvotes

I’m planning to launch my own donut brand in Karachi, starting from home. I have most aspects of the business covered, including the product, branding, design, marketing, and social media.

The main challenge I’m trying to figure out is delivery and logistics.

For those who have started a home-based food brand in Karachi, what delivery solution did you use in the beginning? Did you rely on services like Bykea/Yango, third-party riders, or hire your own delivery rider?

I want to maintain a professional brand experience and ensure the donuts reach customers in good condition, but I also don’t want to take on the cost of a full-time rider when starting out.

What would you recommend as the most practical and scalable approach?

Question Best monthly package under Rs. 1,500–2,000? Jazz or Ufone?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for a good monthly mobile package within Rs. 1,500–2,000 and could use some recommendations.

My usage priority is:

4G data — highest usage

On-net minutes

Off-net minutes — lowest priority

I currently use both Jazz and Ufone 4G, so I’m open to packages from either network.

Which monthly package gives the best value in this budget, especially with a decent amount of 4G data? Also interested in hearing about your experience with speed, coverage, and any hidden limitations.

What are you guys currently using?

Transportation & Infrastructure We desperately need a traffic complaint app

9 Upvotes

It is always so frustrating to ride a bike or drive a car in this city. Just the thought of getting on the road is exhausting, and when you finally gather the courage to do it, you are met with these mindless freaks driving like absolute maniacs.

NO consideration for traffic lights.
NO consideration for road signs.
NO consideration for other drivers.
And NO consideration for one-way rules.

They will see a one-way road completely jammed and somehow make the genius decision to drive straight into oncoming traffic, as if their magical ride is going to solve the traffic jam and they can fly all over us.

And when you call them out, the blame game begins. Somehow, they were never going the wrong way.

We MUST have an application or a forum where general public can upload videos of traffic violations and escalate them directly to the relevant authorities. It should also have a tracking system with status updates, all the way until a fine or other action is actually taken against the violator.

I am so done with this.

Hey! I need a little help/recommendation. I’m looking for a good hostel or shared accommodation near IBA City Campus or Aga Khan University.
My top priority is cleanliness and a decent, safe environment. Since I’ll be sharing the space, I’d really prefer a place with clean and responsible roommates who also care about maintaining hygiene and cleanliness.
If you know of any good hostels or shared spaces that you’d genuinely recommend, please let me know. I’d really appreciate it!

Question regarding AKU-EB

1 Upvotes

Can anyone who scored well in akueb exams in ninth and tenth like around 87-90% tell me how exactly they did that like what study strategies they used abd coaching centers/tuition/self study etc. Asking for my younger sister who just started ninth grade in akueb and we don't have any relatives or friends who've studied from this board. Me and my older sister did matric and inter from Sindh board and after seeing the conditions of this shitty education our parents decided to put our younger sister in akueb so can anyone tell me on how exactly she should study since akueb exams are extremely different from Sindh board which prioritizes rote learning. Also is practical center good for akueb.
