Amjad Sabri Gone- Blood is Cheaper than Water Here- Article by Shoby

I belong to a nation where my people are blessed with diverse skills & abilities. My country Pakistan has produced top class personalities in almost every walk of life. From sports to music, from performing arts to science, we have got the talent in real sense and same has been showcased by few of the greats in all fields but alas I belong to the state where blood of a common person is much cheaper than every other thing even water.

Today (June 22, 2016), we have lost yet another gem of a personality, the successor of famous Sabri qawaal family- Sir Amjad Hussain Sabri. Amjad sb was a true artist by every mean. As he was born in December 23 in the famous qawaal/ musical family and stunned everyone by his sheer talent. Being a musical prodigy, he continued the legacy of his late father Mr. Ghulam Fareed Sabri and further established the name of his family by reciting Naats & Qawaalis not only in Pakistan but all over the world. Today it feels like the era of qawaali is almost gone, as far as Sabri family is concerned, as Amjad Sabri has been murdered brutally in Karachi.

Now I am wondering why a humble person like Amjad Sabri, who has no enmity with anyone has been killed and honestly I cant get any solid reason. Is it so, because he was a lover of RASOOL PAK (saww) and HIS noble family. Is it so, because he used to recite Naats & Kalaam in the praise of Prophet MOHAMMAD (saww), IMAM ALI (asws) and the sacred Family. Is it so because he was a true Aashiq e RASOOL (saww) & AHL e BAIT (asws).

Recently we have seen famous journalist  Khurram Zaki being murdered in Karachi. Two years back, Professor Taqi Hadi & Professor Sibt e Jafer were also murdered in target killing. These two great personalities have no enmity with anyone and they  all were innocents. Then why have they been killed and who killed them. What is the mindset behind all this. Who does not want positive & decent minds to live long in Pakistan.

Murder of Amjad Sabri depicts how badly the government has failed to provide security to the citizens. Forget about ordinary public, even artists & celebrities with great repute are no more safe now. I am sorry to say that they always deploy grand security measures when it comes to the security of politicians & so called leaders of political parties. I have no issue with the same but what will these politicians answer when they will be asked by The GOD that you did this much for yourself but what about those who were under your rule. Upon whom you were enjoying your kingship. How you guided the right of the public, which was your responsibility.

Today each & every true lover of RASOOL PAK (saww) & a patriotic Pakistani is demanding one thing. We need nothing but justice. We want the real culprits of this hideous crime being dealt with logical & acceptable justice.

Government has to take necessary measures to ensure the safety of public, especially those who are the representatives of our society & culture. But unfortunately, the so called leaders of the nation are not interested in fulfilling the responsibility. They are here only to rule. But they should remind one thing, even rulers like Pharaoh and Namrood had a downfall. Believe me, our rulers have to answer one day.
