Believe me, I regain life after death
(Abdul Majeed Khan, Karachi)
Readers! This is incident of 1965, I had started job in a government department. I was living in a rented house with my friends and colleagues, and was busy in my papers' preparation. We have mess in a hotel, and we pay the hotel dues on receiving salaries after one month. One night when we go for dinner to the hotel, we met a man there who was saying that "I am hungry for the days, let me eat food, please". Nobody pay attention on his appeal, and someone asked this is the manner of begging? I said "Baba, you please sit here and tell me what you would like to eat? He said whatever. For some instance I insisted him to tell me his choice of food, but he did not tell me. I said the waiter, whatever you are bringing for me, bring the same for this old man, and he should not have lack of anything. However we keep eating food, he was sitting behind me. When we get free from dinner, I saw behind me, and he had left after eating. I asked waiter, he told me that he is getting out of hotel, when I asked him for tea, he nodded and left. That whole night was very much painful for me, in those days I used to take a lot of cigarette. My chest was burning too, but I was unaware of what's going on. In the morning I went to office, and in office I felt the same situation, it seemed something has to be happened. There was a new machine in office, and its instructor was also there, he was providing its training. It was June 1965 Friday. One part of this machine has to be joined with other, everyone tried for it, but all in vain. Suddenly hook slipped and that one and half ton heavy iron plate fell on me, and my neck stuck in it. I felt that someone has filled stones in my mouth. In fact my all teeth was broken in the mouth and I saw all of the office walls have become black and all of my sins and virtues are written with white chalk on that. I saw one of our Engineer having iron rod in his hand rushed towards that instructor saying, you have killed our colleague, I will kill you. I was a body builder, I tried my best to lift the weigh, but it was too much. One of the helper standing beside me was saying that how young this man was, alas died. I was listening to all, but I was unaware of how I suddenly raise my voice, "Please leave him first let me release". On my voice all of them rushed to me and tried to lift the plate, but they couldn't, then they tried to lift it with hook, and I get released from underneath. All of my bones were broken and I was not breathing clearly. They put me in car and brought me to civil hospital. They all tried to escape my life in emergency, anyhow I regained the life and today in Ubqari Tasbeeh khana, I am writing you my condition. Different people have different reasons, but I believe that my mother's prayers play an important role in saving my life. I have felt this after 53 years when I came in to Tasbeeh Khana.
