00:00In this informative sequence, dear friends, let us go straight to the topic. Today we will visit Zark, a town in Sindh.
00:08Heading to a place where glorious history and centuries-old secrets meet, this is a place
00:15Who has reached the heights of Aurouz
00:17It was also seen and then it got lost somewhere in the dust of time, so let us expose this unique story of Jarak.
00:23If we do, then let us dive into it, this heart touching qitbas of Abu Bakr Sheikh will be included in today's zikr
00:31perfectly describes the sadness of
00:34The city was full of life and vibrancy, but today only silence reigns here, the splendor of the past
00:41The buildings have now become ruins, just imagine a Kasapa which has been forgotten by time, how many unheard stories it holds within itself.
00:48will be contained
00:49Now let us look at this Hind i.e. one hundred and fifty, this Hind along with understanding the importance of Jark
00:56It is very important for this, a rock at a height of exactly one hundred and fifty feet from the shore of Jarak River Sindh.
01:04There is a sentence on the platform, in the tens of eighteen hundred, this tremendous
01:19It was not an ordinary village, but a proper and very important river port, where trading ships and
01:26There used to be a fair of steam boats, these steamers ran on wood fuel and their central station was Zark
01:33It was, because of its importance
01:34This can be gauged from the fact that Sir Charles Napier even established a military depot here.
01:40It was, what a thing, Hissa Awal, the arrival of Aga Khan Awal, the importance of zarak was not limited to trade alone.
01:48Friends, in the nineteenth century this was actually
02:03After a long and difficult journey from Iran in 1841, Bilakhir Yakam reached Zarak in March 1843, and
02:13He liked the climate and the atmosphere of this place so much that on 21 March 1843, he left Jark.
02:20He gave his first proper hit court in Bare Sagir.
02:24His arrival had a profound and spiritual impact on the local population, who believed that
02:30His arrival brought blessings to Kaspe. In 1843, he built a magnificent Usshan Mahal here.
02:39Which still shows its glory today,
02:41People say that even today a strange spiritual peace is felt in the courtyard of this palace.
02:47Hissa Doom, the Alamiya of 1843, but friends, this golden age of prosperity and peace could not last long.
02:56The pages of history turn and a sudden change in the story
03:00And Nahid painfully recalls, it was the historic night of 23 March 1843, when Aga Khan Awal and his followers were
03:10He was present there when suddenly the opposing tribes, including the Jokhiya, Naumdi and Kalmati, launched a joint attack.
03:18Given, this attack
03:20Thousands of them were behind this sudden attack, the political conflicts of the time and the growing influence of the Ismailis.
03:28Rusukh's enmity was at work, so the most important point of all this is that on this night of Jarak
03:35Holi of blood was played in the streets, this letter
03:50They looted more than lakh rupees and gold and silver, this was the property of this emerging community of that time.
03:56It was indeed a great blow for him, after this extremely heavy loss the Aga Khan Awal led his people
04:03This is to boost your morale
04:18Kamil believed in prosperity, Majid was a great believer in avoiding bloodshed and promoting prosperity for his people.
04:25Khan Awal made a very wise decision, he decided to leave Zurak and stay in Karachi for some time.
04:33to stay in
04:34Ultimately, in 1845, he independently transferred his headquarters to Bombay and thus became a major centre of Zurk.
04:44The era has reached its end.
05:04Where was the founder of Pakistan, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, actually born? This question seems simple enough.
05:12The answer is just as complicated. On one hand, there are local folk tales and old books, and on the other, government-sponsored
05:20documentary
05:33He vehemently claims that he was born in Karachi. We will cite both statements in this informational context.
05:40The most prominent reference in support of the jerk is from old Darsi textbooks. Just think, from 1943 to 1979
05:49Till then Baka in the books of Sindh
06:02The Prami people even claim that the register of Jerk Primary School has been made to disappear.
06:07Renowned scholars like Dr. Nabhi Bakhsh Baloch strongly support this claim.
06:15Now whatever
06:32Jinnah's name and residence city are listed on Entry No. 114, Karachi. And the most surprising thing is that the exact same
06:40On the following day, another child was admitted at entry number 113, and 'Zahrak' was clearly written next to it.
06:48Jinnah is born in Zahraq
07:02But let us look at Jinnah Sahib's own statement in his address to the Sindh Provincial Muslim League Conference in 1938:
07:09In his own words, he declared Karachi as his birthplace. He spent 72 years of his life in
07:17once upon a time
07:31And moving away from these debates, let us now look at the ruthless wheel of time which
07:37With Jorik, Wacke made no concessions. And this clearly demonstrates that time
07:44How cruel can one be? Imagine a time when...
07:48The Chharak market had more than two hundred shops, the streets were bustling and the river was
07:54Large ships used to sail there. What is there today? The riverbed has turned into dry sand dunes.
08:00Those beautiful shops and happy homes
08:03Now they have turned into gloomy ruins where only the whistling of the wind blows.
08:10This story leaves us with a profound, long-standing concern. This question ignites the mind.
08:16that when the river makes its way
08:32I am sure this story will bring us all closer to these unknown and unknown figures of history.
08:37But she will force it. With this, our series today comes to its conclusion.
