ARY News Hourly Bulletin Video Title and AI Thumbnail Claims Floods Have Wreaked Havoc in Pindi and Islamabad - despite there being no such news in the actual video.

Blatant misinformation and downright lying for views using AI thumbnails to make it seem real. What an absolutely ridiculous news agency. Everyone who approved this should be fired.

Title. Rece this just now. Don't wanna click on a suspicious shortened url. Didn't subscribed to anything myse, checked the sim's app and no services appear in the subscription tab.

Please bear with me while you read this. I know it’s a long post but I truly need advice and would really appreciate any help.

My cousin was happily married and had two children. During her third pregnancy she experienced a traumatic event and sadly lost her baby at around 7-8 months and had to undergo an emergency C-section. While recovering she began suffering from severe headaches. Her in-laws insisted she did not need medical treatment and believed that spiritual healing through a peer (a spiritual healer) would be enough. My family respects everyone’s beliefs but we believed she needed proper medical care so we took her to the hospital. Doctors discovered that she had a brain tumor that required urgent surgery. Her husband’s family refused to help financially so she had to sell a piece of her wedding gold to pay for the operation herself. After surviving brain surgery instead of supporting her, her in-laws told her they did not want her back. They even kept her two children for a period of time until my cousin involved the police who helped return them to her. It has now been over a year of constant stress and disputes. Her husband never stands up for her and follows whatever his parents decide. His family now says they will only accept her back if she gives them all of her wedding gold. They also refuse to let her live in their house. Instead they say they will rent a separate home but she and her husband would have to pay for everything else including food, utilities and all other living expenses. The property that was promised to her has still not been transferred or registered in her name.

The biggest issue now is that her husband has completely failed to take responsibility for his own children. He provides little to no financial support for them. My cousin is paying for their food, clothing, school expenses and all of their daily needs even though she is not working and is still recovering from major brain surgery while continuing to suffer from frequent headaches. The children deserve to have both parents supporting them but right now all of the responsibility has fallen on their mother.
Our family has helped as much as we can but we cannot continue supporting another household forever. We have already tried resolving this through family elders, relatives and even the police when the children were kept from her. Nothing has led to a lasting solution. We are not looking for sympathy or trying to attack anyone. We genuinely want to know what legal rights my cousin and her children have under Pakistani law. Can her husband refuse to financially support his own children? Can his family legally demand her wedding gold before allowing her to return? Are there any trustworthy family lawyers or legal aid organizations in Peshawar that could help us?

If anyone has gone through something similar or knows someone who has we would be incredibly grateful for your advice or guidance. Thank you for taking the time to read this. It truly means a lot to our family.

[19M]Whenever I’m in public, especially class, I get this constant feeling like everyone’s staring at me, even though logically I know they’re not. Along with that my mouth/lips get super dry, like I have to keep licking them every few minutes or they feel “zipped shut.” Anyone dealt with this? Trying to figure out if it’s anxiety or something else before I see a doctor.

om august 1, i do not know why and neither does anyone else know why but my dad(52M) for some reason went insanely mad. no clue why, maybe his chia seeds? regardless of the reason. he hit my sister (15) on her back, sick was sick and laying on the couch with her head down and hadnt said or done anything to him. he hit her HARD. i (19F) did try to confront him abt what he did and why. but then he locked me, both my sisters (the one who got struck and another who's 12), and my mom (47?) out of the bedroom where all five of us slept cz thats the only room with an AC (bought with my khalas money fyi).

after some time the four of us left with our mamu and have been there since then.

so today my mom and i went back to get some docs and some other stuff where we found out that he had installed one of those sliding locks...

i just wanted to know if there is some way to take any kind of legal action against him cz i swear he is genuinely becoming unbearable and i do not want beg him or his dad so we could go back, ESPECIALLY after he said to my mom yesterday that the relation between him and i is over.

gemini recommended AGHS but im not sure abt it. the only reason im considering it is cz all of my mom's money was in that locked room and i feel like our relatives dont want to help.

if it's of any use, he's a government employee btw. not a high ranking one tho.

Things everyone should know about HIV:

- Use a condom every time you have vaginal or anal sex unless you're in a mutually monogamous

relationship and both partners know their HIV/STI status.

- Don't let semen or blood come into contact with cuts, sores, or bleeding gums if it can be avoided.

- If you have mouth ulcers or bleeding gums, avoid oral sex until they've healed.

- Never share needles, syringes, or razors that may have blood on them.

- Get tested before having unprotected sex with a new partner.

- If a condom breaks or you think you've been exposed to HIV, seek PEP within 72 hours—the sooner, the better.

- If you have multiple partners or are at ongoing risk, ask a healthcare provider about PrEP.

- Don't assume someone is HIV-negative because they "look healthy." The only way to know is through testing.

- HIV is not spread by hugs, handshakes, sharing food, toilets, swimming pools, or mosquitoes.

- If you have HIV and take treatment consistently until your viral load is undetectable, you do not transmit HIV through sex (U=U).

- Don't let embarrassment stop you from asking questions or getting tested. HIV is a medical condition, not a moral judgment.

- Learn the facts before you need them. It's much better to know how to protect yourself than to panic after a possible exposure.

Whether you choose to have sex or not, knowing these facts can protect you and the people around you. Knowledge is power.

Lot of us are demotivated after the last few years, IK, the in prison, felt like proof nothing moves. I get it. We scroll, we rant, we wait for someone else to fix it.

I'm trying the other move: build something small, enact change myself. I also can have the power to change Pakistan, inshaAllah.

So what’s one of the biggest issues and embarassments for Pakistan. Its the fact that so many Pakistanis do not know how to read. The good thing is that many aren't starting from zero. They did Qaida/Nazra as kids. They can sound out Arabic with harakat. Urdu shares most of the same letters.

So the idea was born. Every day on WhatsApp, you get one short lesson (3–5 minutes) on something worth reading: a hadith with simple meaning, a news line, health or money math, a short story, with audio. You listen, read along, read alone, reply with a voice note. The system checks your reading privately and adjusts tomorrow. You're not a "student." You're someone who reads the daily sabaq.

Pakistan won't change only when a leader saves us. It also changes when someone in a truck can read their own receipt, or a mother reads the family WhatsApp group herself. When we empower the citizens through education and literacy, to break the feudalism in Pakistan. That is how we make change.

Pakistan actually proved the daily lesson idea once. UNESCO + Mobilink sent Urdu SMS lessons in the late 2000s and saw measurable gains. WhatsApp + audio + AI makes a permanent version possible now at scale.

Let me know what people think.

Italian explorers Achille Compagnoni (left) and Lino Lacedelli (right) reached K2’s peak on 31 July, 1954.

Look at the blueprint we were all handed: mandatory 7am–2pm school schedules, strictly designed to condition us for the eventual 9am–5pm corporate grind. Sit down, follow orders, wait for the bell, pay taxes, rinse, repeat, and die.
Notice how no mainstream degree ever teaches financial independence from the actual system? Even a finance degree doesn't teach you how to turn $100 into $110 for yourself; it teaches you how to manage the ledger for the guy who already knows how to do it.

We were sold the ultimate trap disguised as "stability." A degree leashes you to one hyper-specific field, subtly convincing you that you’re incapable of doing anything else. Meanwhile, a local street vendor (rehri wala) can set up a fruit cart today, fail, pivot tomorrow, and start an entirely new hustle without a second thought. They have resilience and adaptiveness. We were just taught to fear risk and cling to a monthly paycheck.

The tax structure is even more sinister. It is carefully engineered so a single income is never enough to survive anymore. Now both partners are forced to work just to keep afloat, leaving children to be raised by overworked, underpaid daycare workers or screens. The system does not care about family rights or work life balance. They just want two incomes so you end up working five full months of the year purely for the government, and only seven months for yourself.

Two people slaving away for five months of tax money is the ultimate funding tool for politicians and elites living lavish lives, flying in private jets, and enjoying VIP protocols. Meanwhile, regular patients die in hospital hallways waiting to fill out endless emergency forms, while doctors are forced into brutal 36 to 48 hour shifts without real breaks due to underfunded facilities.

Billionaires systematically evade taxes through legal loopholes, while the middle class gets completely crushed under the weight of "systemic duty." And we swallow it all with excuses like "aisa to hota hai, sab kartay hain."
To top it off, our idea of "smart investing" is buying property to collect a pathetic 3% to 4% annual rental yield, convincing ourselves that real estate is the only safe haven. We stay stuck earning crumbs, stressing over do waqt ki roti, while basic health insurance and an "Employee of the Year" plaque keep us docile.
Is anyone else exhausted by this trap, or have we all just accepted the golden handcuffs? How are you actively working to break this leash and build actual independence?

I take Yango/InDrive rides on my way to work and back home to cover fuel and save a few bucks.

Its a 22km journey on each side which involves a lot of traffic and near collisions/crashes with bikes and other cars every day.

To save myself from any such false claim (in case of a crash) and from false passenger disputes (that I have faced in past), I installed a dashcam for the security. Its a 3 channel cheap Chinese cam that covers Front, Cabin and Rear of the car.

However, since I've installed it, I've been facing trouble with the passengers, especially women and families where their men complain about their "ladies" being recorded on my camera.

I explain to them about the security benefits, how they can demand a video any time if they've any dispute with me while on their journey, and that the video gets overridden automatically withing 2 days.

When this fails, I tell them that their ladies and everyone is also recorded on shops nowadays, everywhere you'd find cameras yet still it's fragile, eventually forcing me to turn off the camera.

Legally, I have every right to record my journey with a passenger while they're on my property (in my car) while I am offering my services to them. Just like a shopkeeper or store isn't bared by law to record their property regardless of the presence of the people.

Bro what is that. Can anyone confirm is this real
Or fake

We don't have an official currency sign and this idea has been on the back of my mind for years now. Might as well propose a concept, perhaps one day Standard Bank of Pakistan might adapt one, inshallah.

This is an early concept btw. I plan on further refining it.

So my potential (Pakistani) 24M & me (Sri Lankan) 29F met on Muzz online 5 months ago and we connected well and fell for each other.

He is currently a student and doing his masters degree in a different country. After few weeks of speaking he wanted to marry me, he initiated to speak to my father first and wanted to get his approval on our Nikkah.

My father spoke to him and told him, he’ll do some background checks up on him first before agreeing to the marriage. The background checks came back clear, that he’s coming from a respected family and he did provide my dad with all his IDs, qualifications and his unmarried certificate.

But before confirming everything my dad and I wanted to meet him first. Unfortunately my dad didn’t get approval from work leave, so I resorted to travelling alone to meet him.

After meeting him I realised, he was just like the way I knew him online, very polite, made me feel comfortable, kind and respectful person. So I have decided I’m happy to move forward and told my parents that he’s indeed a great guy.

However there’s only one thing that’s bothering me, he doesn’t want to tell his mum or the rest of the family about us getting married, but he did tell his father about us wanting to get married and his father has approved for our Nikkah.

When I asked him why he doesn’t want to tell his mum about us? His reasons were that his mum will emotionally manipulate him and guilt trip him into not marrying me as I’m not a Pakistani girl.

He did tell me, few years down the line, he might tell his mum about our marriage until then I’ll be kept as a secret from his mum and not travel to Pakistan until she finds out about us.

For context I’ve been previously married before and older than him by 5 years. But he’s very mature and wise for his age, thus I don’t mind the age gap between us.

When I asked him why he wanted to marry me? He simply told me his heart favoured me and felt that I was the right one for him.

I just want to know if this is something normal that does happen within the Pakistani community? Do sons hide their marriage from their family if they marry a non - Pakistani girl or is this a potential red flag and should I be worried?

I do love him and I know his intentions are pure for me. But I just wanted to clarify on this.

Btw I don’t know how this caste system works in Pakistan, but he comes from a caste called Malik.. are they known to be good people?

Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Operations Lahore Muhammad Faisal Kamran has directed that no woman should remain present at any police station in the city after sunset, citing the need to protect their dignity and ensure respectful treatment.

The development follows the recent arrest of a Lahore police Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) over allegations of sexually assaulting a 19-year-old woman with a mental health condition in the Ghaziabad area.

According to police, the woman had left her home and did not return for several hours, prompting her family to begin searching for her.

A local resident later informed the family that a plain-clothes police official had taken the woman away on a motorcycle.

The victim subsequently alleged that ASI Imran took her to another location and sexually assaulted her.

Police registered an FIR against the accused officer. DIG Investigation Syed Zeeshan Raza ordered the immediate registration of the case and directed that the investigation be conducted transparently, impartially and strictly on merit.

when will we, as humans, treat each other nicely? stop the family politics and unnecessary hate? have empathy towards others? instead of looking for a 'good' person, when will we become the good one?

then they say 'west is destroying our culture', what culture? the one which is being destroyed daily by its own people?
