&lt;strong&gt;&lt;i&gt;These pools that, though in forests, still reflect
The total sky almost without defect,
And like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
Will like the flowers beside them soon be gone,
And yet not out by any brook or river,
But up by roots to bring dark foliage on.
The trees that have it in their pent-up buds
To darken nature and be summer woods --
Let them think twice before they use their powers
To blot out and drink up and sweep away
These flowery waters and these watery flowers
From snow that melted only yesterday.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;

		<description>@ kaami

Your above comments have thoroughly confused me. Will you kindly answer my following questions as part of my education:

1. What do the acronyms PTI and MB stand for ?

2. What is a &#039;license store&#039;? Are such license stores only in Sind and Karachi or also in Punjab and Islamabad ?

3. Is selling of liquor by &#039;liscence stores&#039; to general public legal or illegal ?

4. Isn&#039;t drinking a criminal offense in Pakistan punishable as per the penal code of Pakistan.

5. You say: &quot; To track back sale &amp; purchase of liquor was never stopped by the Prophet nor by the subsequent Khulafa, and it was the integral part of the Ummayyad and Abbasid culture.&quot; This is news for me. Will it then be correct to assume that people did drink during the golden era of Islam and were not punished for it?

6. In the light of above will it be correct to assume that drinking may not be a punishable offense under Sharia Law ?

7. I know liquor is not sold, purchased or drunk openly in Saudi Arabia. I also know that behind doors most Sauidis drink like a fish. Any idea if the sale, purchase and drinking of liquor a punishable offense there ?

In asking some of these question I may sound like a Pendu but that can&#039;t be helped because that is what I am basically. I love my drop but have been relying on my boot legger for that. I can assure you of one thing that I have been drinking without any guilty conscience whatsoever. Some of the above questions that I have asked in regard to the legal status  of drinking during the goleden era of Islam are for my education and not to ighten any burden on my conscience.

I hope you will take some time out to answer my above questions.</description>

		<description>How can something be started which never stopped. Liqour was always available in the hypocritical Pakistan Society, even in Zia&#039;s time. However, It made a comeback after Zia, through License Stores, also Murree Brewery never went out of business.

To track back sale &amp; purchase of liquor was never stopped by the Prophet nor by the subsequent Khulafa, and it was the integral part of the Ummayyad and Abbasid culture. The Arabs always did and still love fine wine. It makes me sick the PTI zealots like MB convert every topic promote their agenda.

As for the laws I agree, sale and purchase of liquor is stricktly regulated even in the most liberal western societies, as it was the case when it was sold in the bars, café&#039;s, clubs and cabre joints in saddar Karachi. However, the license stores have made it available to the general public.</description>

		<description>An excellent post i must say dear
Its unfortunate that the officers are mainly interested in safeguarding a particular group rather checking it in general

Also i beg to differ from your statement that BB&#039;s arrival had anything to do with it. IMO it all started with that enlightenment circus with our president officially (sarcastically) displaying how LIQUOR cane benefit in public jalsaz with a good display of emotionally charged lectures ETC.</description>
