    Attaullah Khan Essa Khelvi opens up about his five marriages

    Legendary singer Attaullah Khan Esakhelvi was invited as a guest on Hafiz Ahmed’s podcast where he talked about his five marriages for the first time.

    “My first four wives told me they couldn’t spend time with me and couldn’t manage living with me, so they left me. That’s why I had to marry a fifth time.”
    During the podcast he said, “I drove a taxi before becoming a singer. My father was against my singing career, so I had to do various jobs to make ends meet. Even after I became a singer, my father never listened to my songs and wasn’t happy about it. But my mother would tell me that he would listen to my songs when I wasn’t around.”

    Talking about the founder of PTI, Imran Khan, the singer said, “I’ve had a long-standing relationship with Imran Khan – we’re from the same family and area. I travelled with him to raise funds for Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital.”

    Pakistani tailor’s heartwarming acts of charity inspires netizens

    The spirit of charity among Pakistanis has been a constant source of strength amidst the country’s numerous challenges. Organizations like the Edhi Foundation and Shaukat Khanum Hospitals, along with various other initiatives, have demonstrated the generosity of the people. This spirit of giving has consistently lifted Pakistan from its lowest points.

    A heartwarming story recently emerged about Qaiser Hassan, a 26-year-old tailor from Mianwali District. For the past six years, Qaiser has been sewing clothes for orphaned children in his area every Eid, free of charge. He explained that he does this because he is unable to support these children financially, so he contributes in this way instead.

  • ‘I walked to my home, spent a week in silence, biggest moment of my life’: Trump claims Khan was delighted about Iran operative death

    ‘I walked to my home, spent a week in silence, biggest moment of my life’: Trump claims Khan was delighted about Iran operative death

    Former American President Donald Trump is revealing about the killing of Iran’s master operative General Qassem Soleimani in 2020 just before COVID took over the world.

    Trump said that former Prime Minister Imran Khan ‘rejoiced’ at the killing.

    “There was a Khan, a great cricket player, he became the head of Pakistan, he said it was the single biggest thing I can ever remember happening in my life when Soleimani was killed,” Trump said.

    He further claimed that Khan said, “I left my office, I walked to my home, I stayed in my home in solitude for one week, It was the biggest event that ever happened to me. He was the biggest cricket player. That’s like being a great NFL player or a great baseball player. He was said to be just about the best handsome guy. He became the boss, Pakistan.”

    Trump was addressing a campaign rally in Houston, Texas, a city with a large Pakistani diaspora population.

    However, Trump’s claim of Imran Khan going into seclusion seems to be untrue. Journalist Omar Warraich pointed out in a X thread that Khan addressed a rally in his hometown Mianwali, the very next day and did not mention Soleimani’s assassination in the speech.

    Trump’s claim that Imran Khan walked from his office, the Prime Minister Secretariat, to his home, Bani Gala, also seems to be untrue. It has never been reported that Khan ever walked home, a distance of roughly 15 kilometers.

    The United States assassinated Qasem Soleimani with a drone strike in Baghdad on January 3, 2020. Soleimani was an Iranian general, the country’s most powerful commander, widely considered to be the most important person in Iran after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei.

    Soleimani was the leader of the Revolutionary Guards’ Quds Force, a pivotal figure in managing Iran’s campaign to drive U.S. forces out of Iraq, and built up Iran’s network of proxy armies across the Middle East. Washington accused Soleimani of masterminding attacks by Iranian-aligned militias on U.S. forces in the region.
