If only we all can understand the true message that SHAH ABDUL LATIF BHITAI gave us centuries ago, thrue his poetry, then only we will be able to live in Peace amongst all people and Pakistan and the sub-continent will be better off and as green and glorious as centuries ago. SHAH SAHEB STILL IN OUR HEARTS AND MINDS....

The contributions of great 'Sufis' and other legendary great Muslim personalities like Moinuddin Chishti, Ganj Bakhsh, Abdul Qadir Jilani, Khwaja Nizamuddin, and many others, to propagate Islam in the sub-continent, perhaps is the reason that there are hundreds of millions of Muslims in India and Pakistan today. But alas, we have forgotten all their preachings to be true Muslim; and a little misguided knowledge of Islam and arrogance has resulted in a great number of Muslims making the shrines of these great Muslim scholars places of "Shirk". We have forgotten their teachings and their messages, and allowed some unscrupulous individuals to lead us astray in the name of religion. May Allah help us all to keep away from 'Shirk', which is one sin that Allah will not forgive!
