Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics


If you notice, my reply was not in that context.. it was reply to something which I thought to clarify :)

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

Se should be proud of the fact that Dr Abdus Salam was a Paksitani and give him due respect. I for one feel very proud of him.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

I dont know where the tolerance gone from these so called Islamic brothers.

grow up and give respect where its due, He was a Pakistani no matter he was a Ahmadi or else. He was great scientist and should be given respect.
Even if you hate his faith, his personal matter. shouldnt stop you respect him as national hero.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

Interesting debate over Pakistani versus Islam. I would just like to see what would happen if everyone was standing in the court of Allah & asked, decide what is better now...!!!

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

Exactly, all these jahil nitwits passing judgments, even if you combine their narrowminded brainspans they cant match Dr. Salaam.

Coming back to the topic, anyone ever studied his electro-weak theory in detail?

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

Its not Islam vs Pakistan.

Pakistan is our Country and Islam is our faith. both are different.

People living in Pakistan muslims and non muslims are equal and PAkistanis and should be treated as such.

Spock, last topic about physics I have read was in last Msc when studying attanuation in fibre links. and btw Dr Salam names was mentioned many times during my MSc lectures here in London by one of the lecturer. Cause I was the only Pakistani in the class he always looked at me while mentioning his name.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

The day Pakistan starts teaching children in their history books about Dr. Salaam, that day Pakistan will probably be a developed nation.

I don't see that happening any time soon.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

No wonder this is banned from the forum.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

aj, I actually remember being taught about Abdus Salaam, and was asked to write a biography on him, and how his work influences us to study physics. Alot of us had to goto the British Council Islamabad just to get our hands on Britannica and other encyclopedias as none of our local books had anything on him. I wonder if there are any physics experts on this forum, and what they think of the electroweak theory which won him the nobel prize.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

Its about some at some frequancies some partical apear different.

I vaguely**remember it reading in "brief history of time" by stephen hawking.
I was excited to read Dr. salam's name in that book.
He got noble prize 10 years after first presenting that paper.

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

I am sure all of you know who this Alfred Nobel was who set up the so called "Nobel Peace Prize" amoung all other prizes for human excellence.

Alfred Nobel was the inventor of TNT Tri-Nitro-Toluene, a clean burning explosive used in the manufacture of Hi Explosives, used to destroy human life, and blow up things, main ingredient in all bombs other than Nuclear.
**Isn't it ironic that a Man who enormously profits from providing the main ingredient for weapons of MASS DESTRUCTION, has a peace prize named after him!!!:( **

Re: Dr. Abdus Salam: Beyond Physics

ahmad-MATRIC FAIL-jee

If by chance you had studied beyond matric ( with science ) in pakistan, you would have found him in physics book :p

He was a great scientist and a patriotic pakistan. We are proud of him
