Truly Syedah Bushra Iqbal

The earliest memories we have of Amir Liaqat is a candid, smart youthful gentleman who starting airing religious shows in a very interesting manner. He would pick a topic, invite an Islamic scholar and put questions to him which the general public were curious about. He would take live calls too. People liked to listen to them because the show was focused on what people wanted to know rather than imposing facts upon them. The show was called Alim Online.

From there on, he started hosting special Ramadan transmissions to family entertainment shows. He entered politics via MQM and ended up with PTI. He even served as the Minister of Religious Affairs at one time. There have been some controversies regarding his educational degrees because of which people stopped calling him a doc. Some even questioned his moral authority to host religious shows and professional right to be the minister of religious affairs because were his religious degrees authentic ?

However, the first social disillusionment came when after being happily married to Syedah Bushra Iqbal for a good eighteen years, he suddenly married a second woman, Syedah Tuba Anwar, in 2018. The marriage of your husband to another woman is enough of a trial in itself, but the fact that first he kept the marriage a secret, then he divorced Bushra over a phone call upon the demand of Tuba and then started attending morning shows in which he and his newly wed maligned and abused the first wife. Lord Almighty ! This is one of the worst forms of marital persecution. Can you imagine the emotional trauma and mental torture that the first wife and children went through ? A loyal, loving wife and innocent, teenage kids ? A girl and a boy ? How were they going to face the world ? To see their father sitting all dolled up with a young woman and together the two of them foul mouthing their mother ? What were you thinking Tuba ?

Naturally we had no sympathy for you when Amir Liaqat made his third marital misadventure in 2021. Or was it the fourth, if we consider the claims and statements of one Ms. Hania Khan to be true ? Syedah Tuba Anwar, why did you think that you were the one which Syedah Bushra Iqbal could not be ? What was so special about you? It is ironic that every second wife comes with a smug smile, as if she is the second one and will be the last one, and then rants and raves when the predator husband claims his next prey … Syedah Tuba Anwar, you very well deserved what you got !

Now comes the case of Syedah Dania Shah. It is interesting how all of Amir Liaqat’s wives are Syedahs … are they really ? For if we can walk around here with fake degrees, how difficult can it be to add the title of Syedah to your name at the time of registering a birth certificate or school certificate or marriage certificate ?

When Amir Liaqat divorced Syedah Bushra Iqbal mercilessly and she rested her case with Allah Almighty, he actually signed his own death certificate. You remember the grievance of Syedna Khawlah RA which she put up to Prophet Muhammed SAW that is narrated in the beginning of Surah Al-Mujadilah ? I don’t know who has given this understanding to men that Allah Almighty is God of men only and not the God of women as well ...

Unfortunately, a majority of Muslim men blatantly abuse the authority that Allah Almighty has given them, which was actually intended for the benevolence of the family, the society and mankind, but it has been maliciously twisted and is being misused only for self appeasement. Just like the politicians of Pakistan, albeit PM Imran Khan of course !

Dania is simply a female version of the deceased and she spit all the venom back on the deceased that the deceased had been spitting on his ex-wives. How these men play God ! When Tuba, suffering from her well deserved torture, asked for a divorce so that she can exit the torture of her marriage, the deceased announced that his lordship had decided to keep her in marriage, because he wished it that way. So a greater Lord, Allah Almighty, devised another way for both the former wives to exit the torture of their former husband exhibiting his latest marital life on the social media.

People are condemning Dania for leaking his personal videos on social media ? Well she never started it. The deceased leaked hers first because she had decided to dump him. She only continued it. I am no relation to the deceased, but as a woman, I was horrified to see the deceased romancing with his latest wife and posting videos of it on the social media. In an instance, it was as if I am the Ghost of 1990 and my spirit has fused with the spirit of Syedah Bushra Iqbal. What pain we felt to see the deceased lying on the bed with Dania, pretending to be asleep and then suddenly opening his eyes and smiling right into the camera ... I cannot forget the posture and those eyes and that smile. They were purposely and defiantly and cruel fully aimed at teasing his former wives. Allah’o Akbar ! From Alim Online to Teasing Online …

I know very well that as a Muslim, we are supposed to stop all talk about the deceased except praise. That is why I have started this article with praise and have refrained from taking the deceased’s name where the mention is not praiseworthy. As Muslims, we are not supposed to denounce the deceased but this also does not mean turning him/her into a hero. Prophet Muhammed SAW has clearly given the guidelines for choosing a wife, and that is soundness in religion, but our men lustfully choose beauty over character and then sob when they turn out to be gold diggers. Well, what else do you expect when young, beautiful girls choose to marry old, sagging skin? People are posting about the qualities that a good wife should have. What about the qualities a good husband should have ? The tragedy that we have witnessed is not actually the tragedy of Amir Liaqat but that of Syedah Bushra Iqbal … praise be to the lady … who honorably faced the torture of her marital affliction, took the responsibility of raising his children and has now gracefully received the dead body of her ex-husband. Is that what first wife is for ?

And of course, Qandeel Baloch continues to be a slut because she was a female and Amir Liaqat becomes a hero because he was a male although some Dania Shah out smarted him !


Share the Pain
