Salaam,
How are you all. I hope you are all doing fine. I want to share some Haiti Earthquake news. I was at the Haiti Airport right before the earthquake. I was coming back home after my official visit to Haiti U.S embassy. It was really a mess as you all have heard about the 7.0 magnitude earthquake. It was a bad tragedy.

I have posted some pics on my personal shutterfly account. Below is the link. These are the pics right after the earthquake.

I have been so blessed by the Almighty Allah that I was able to make it out by this tragic incident which occurred at Haiti.

I was staying in Hotel Montana, where mostly tourists stay. There were 300 people inside the hotel when it collapsed, only 100 have got out.

I am lucky to be alive back home in Washington DC. Please pray for the victims of Haiti and Hotel Montana where I stayed.

Thanks!

Umar Dakwala.

CHHIPA AMBULANCES at Bomb blast site during the Moharram procession in Karachi, December 28, 2009

admin — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 19:22:45 +0000

A suicide bomber on Monday struck Pakistan’s largest procession of Shia Muslims on the holiest day in their calendar, killing at least 27 people and wounding dozens more, defying a major security clampdown.

The blast unleashed pandemonium at M A Jinnah Road, one of the biggest boulevards in Karachi, where angry mourners threw stones and opened fire into the air, sparking appeals from the authorities for calm.

Tens of thousands of police and paramilitary forces had been deployed, fearing sectarian clashes or militant bombings would target the Shia faithful who whip themselves to mourn the seventh-century killing of Imam Hussein.

“It was a suicide attack. He was walking with the procession and he blew himself up,” Interior Minister Rehman Malik told a private television, appealing on the Shia community to suspend their commemorations.
