Commemorating Pakistan - 23rd March, 2022

CREDIT: The Sanniah Experience! (TSE!) Pakistan Resolution Day, also known as Republic Day, is a national holiday in Pakistan. On this day, the people of Pakistan commemorate the commitment of the Muslims of the Sub-continent - to achieve a separate homeland - on the basis of the Two-Nation Theory. It is a celebration of the historical perseverance and efforts of our ancestors who gave their all towards this cause of Freedom and Independence. It is also a day to honor the state's first Constitution of 1956 and the journey of becoming the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.  On the occasion of 23rd March 2022, team TSE! (The Sanniah Experience) vow to put forth our best efforts for our beloved Pakistan. May our homeland continue to grow and prosper always, Ameen sum-Ameen.  CREDIT: The Sanniah Experience! (TSE!)

Noor Mukadam Case: Battling 'Desensitization' created by Negative elements & Media Portraiture

©The Sanniah Experience! (TSE) By Sanniah Hassan  In a shocking and heartbreaking turn of events, media reports confirmed the brutal killing of twenty-seven-year-old Noor Mukadam, daughter of former Ambassador Mr. Shaukat Mukadam on the 20th of July last year.  Based on initial reports, the young woman was brutally 'beheaded' after being sexually abused by someone considered to be a friend. An investigation into the case by the Islamabad police led to a confessional by the cold-blooded murderer, the son of an influential business tycoon, Zahir Jaffer.  The news sent shockwaves across the country with many questioning how such an incident was possible. The vibrant young woman's life had been cut short by this monster who pledged that he was a lover 'scorned'.  After being taken into police custody Jaffer and his family knit tales of woe claiming he had proposed marriage and she had rejected, so in a moment of deep self-pity he had resorted to killing her. In doing so...

Gaza Couldn't Survive

By Fatima Zubair Writer of  The Child of a New Millenium 'Have you heard the sound, Of a warning alarm, Screeching through  A deafening Calm? Have you seen a struggle, To collect, Recollect A household, Uninformed? A broken glass, One silent blast. Only the dregs of concrete, Last. Have you heard the cries, A screaming In the vault? Have you seen a city, Painted in mahogany? Of Homeless tags, In Nameless rags! If you haven't seen humanity, Such a humanity, An entire generation wiped, Then look again! It's in Gaza, That Gaza couldn't survive. Gaza couldn't survive!' You can connect with us at thesanniahexperience@gmail.com or contact us via:

Let's Talk about Mental Health & Why is it Important?

©The Sanniah Experience! (TSE) Why talking about mental health is important?  Well, for one, brushing uncomfortable truths under the rug help no one, and two, stable mental health like physical well-being is extremely important for healthy living. We have often heard the saying: Live and Let Live! yet, very few understand this and implement it in their day-to-day lives. So today, let's talk about the how's and the why's of the situation.  You see, when people offer unsolicited advice in the form of options and anecdotes (mostly unnecessarily), it almost always contributes to putting down those in need of help or motivation. So instead of offering our 'helpful suggestions' why not lend a 'listening-ear'?  Allow them the opportunity and safe space and let them express what they may be going through, what they may be troubled by, and perhaps along the way guide them towards a potent solution to their problem! Most examples where a person may be suffering from m...

'Ishqiya': Disappointing or Revolutionary?

  #TSEDramaReview! Spoiler alert!   So let's talk about Ishqiya, a Pakistani drama that aired its concluding (double-episode) episode on the 10th of August, 2020. Although we had doubts about it in the beginning, the last episode was really well presented. From going full-circle in addressing all that needed to be highlighted, the ending was truly satisfying. Firstly. Hamza & Hamna though both deserving of the dangerous repercussions accepted their follies and mistakes yet, there was one thing that set them apart. Having gone through the sequence of events Hamna finally learnt that she will have to be patient in working towards redemption while Hamza stayed stuck in the 'fight for love' dilemma. There is a scene in this episode that really resonated with us and that was when Hamza's friend tells him to show restraint and questions his irrational attitude when he says, why do always have to bring in a fight? Why do you always have to talk about a fight? Secondly. We ...

#BlackLivesMatter, Rowling & Global Perspective

Perfectly put by J K Rowling! The British author, most renowned for the enchanting Harry Potter series, believes that the world needs to change. In a tweet on her official Twitter account, Rowling wrote, "All I know is that the world has to change. Power structures have to change. White people have to change. #BlackLivesMatter." ... and all we can add to this is that, #AllLivesMatter. Be kind to one another because one good deed goes a long way. . . .

Where are we headed?: Need for #BlackoutDay & Extra-marital affairs

So, 2020 is really turning out to be the worst year ever. Considering the global community is tackling a pandemic, while individual countries are facing multiple issues associated with the pandemic and otherwise. As the black community tries to regain its collective and individual power from the #WhiteMan, across United States, we are reminded of the beauty behind Islam which advocates that no man is superior to another on the basis of colour, and that killing all of humanity. Simultaneously, Pakistan is going through its own series of troubles... from the elite putting their dirty laundry on display for the world, to financial troubles, we cannot help but think that two wrongs can never make a right! If a married man cheats on his wife, with another woman, he is equally responsible for the affair and must be dealt with accordingly. In our opinion, the following arguments need to be considered, before passing any judgement or picking any side: 1. The man/woman who cheats is wrong and m...
