There are three phase of Ramzan
This is called Ashra e maghfirat.
This is the 2nd one and we can repent and ask forgiveness from almighty Lord.
We should do this for ourself and our relatives, known people, great personalities, we know who have left this world forever.
It seems like we have forgoten the most revered personalities of this country who made us proud and happy during their life time.
This day a noble lady of Pakistan left the world 11 years ago. Her name is Nazia Hasan. May Allah bless her soul and elevate her status in jannat. ameen
4 days later, it will be the day when another great legend in Pakistan music departed from this world some 10 years ago. May Allah bless soul of Nusrat Fateh Ali khan , forgive his sins and elevate his status in jannat. ameen.
Similarly there are many other names which we have almost errased from our mind due to time. we only remember them for few minutes when we read in paper our see them on tv.
This is the time in blessed month of Ramazan, when we should remember these great people in our prayers and ask Allah his infinite blessings.
Here are few in my mind.
Hakeem Saeed (shaheed)
Dr. Ghulam Murtaza Malik ( shaheed)
Ashfaq Ahmad
Ahmad Fraz
Faiz Ahmad Faiz
Noor Jahaan
Habib Jalib
Moin Akhtar
Ad on the names of personalities you remember and admire. If you feel like doing then pray for them as well as you relative who are not longer present in this world.
