Visit to Ancient Taxila

I have a new topic of history to share with you all. On Sunday, 14th April 2019 my cousin Fatima Aapi from London took us all to Taxila. I saw ancient Stupa and Monastery . I have learned about Stupa from my social studies class. Stupa is a holy building for Buddhists. Their first leader was the Buddha. Stupa means 'heap'. The first stupas were heaps of clay after the Buddha died some of his ashes were buried in stupas.

A monastery is a place where monks live and work. Monks are religious men who devote their lives to their faith.

 I along with my cousins loved exploring the historical places. Next time I will go to see the Taxila museum to see the statues of heads of Buddhas.

I have added picture of the original Stupa from thousands of years old. It  was in a cage. And my uncle Naveed knew the security people so they let us go inside. It was awesome to touch the original Stupa. 

 I also took pictures with my family and cousins at Jain Stupa/ Jain Temple.





My wish is to visit ancient Egypt and see Pharaohs, Mummies, Sphinx, dead body of Tutankhamun & Khufu and inside the pyramids

 I sometimes wish to be an archaeologist.

Hello cricket lovers. I was very lucky that I got selected in the 'one world campus' cricket team.  Last week I stayed late in school to practice for one hour. On Sunday 22nd September 2019. I went with my Baba to Wahid campus to play the cricket tournament. There are 11 members in all cricket teams. My games teachers are Sir Hayat and Sir Haroon.  The match started at 9am in the morning. It was a tough match and there were three rounds. The match was of five overs. I came as a opener and hit one sixer and one four and got run out. My team made 36 runs in the first  innings. Unfortunately we lost the match and our team was disqualified. My Baba watched my match and took some pictures and made video for my fans. I am sad that we lost the match but it is sportsman spirit and it's not the winner that matter, it's how you play the game.

My First Roza on 29th April 2020

Happy Ramadan Mubarik Hi readers, I know that I wasn't keeping up with you all but today I am back to write more blog's. I will try my best to write a blog every month.  Let me tell you about the month of Ramzan. Ramazan is the holy month of the Islamic calendar. This is the month when all Muslims fast. They wake up in the morning at 3:00 and eat food until the Azan and this is the time of Sehri. After they eat food they recite the dua for starting a fast which is (Wabi sao mi ghadin nawetu min shahare ramazan) and they pray a lot    to Allah. The time to open the fast is 7:00 again they recite the dua but this time it's the dua to open the fast which goes (allah humma inni laka sumtu vabica a mantu waalaika tawacal tu waalarizkika aftar tu). My First Roza Yesterday was my first roza. I woke up in Sehri. I ate 2 slices of Pizza and some mango juice they I watched TV and then I tried to go back to sleep but unfortunately I couldn't so I watched more TV instea
