    @Balma jee ….sir with all due respect I want to know what do they
    mean by “Ramadan Kareem” ? and if my memory serves me right we used
    to have “Sehri” until last year….now it seems thanks to the
    social media “network” most people are saying they had or having
    “suhoor” what do they mean by it and how is it different from the
    “sehri of the yesteryears….???

    Brother wasiq, Saudi Arab (shouldn’t it suppose to be Rasool
    ullah’s Arab instead of Saudi’s Arab??) Anyways, Saudi Wahabis are
    investing a tons of money to enforce Wahabiism in Pakistan, In fact
    everyplace where muslim population with lost identity are residing
    namely migrant muslims in west and USA. Wahabism is spreading like
    disease. Starting from changing Khuda Hafiz to Allah Hafiz, now
    Ramadan Karim, literal meaning of Ramadan Karim is “Ramazan
    Generous” you can see if not even close to “Ramazan Mubarak” that
    we used to say. Sahoor is another example, menaing more than one
    seher or morning. Retarded Arab so called muslims are on the
    mission to destroy islam. May Allah keep their fitna away from our
    innocent muslims of Pakistan. Aameen.

    Fasiq, I guess people these days eat a lot more than yester years
    in sehri. Therefore, every morning at sehri time they have
    equivalent of multiple sehris. Hence sahoor. But, before I jump to
    the conclujun, make sure that ‘sahoor’ is not used in the context
    of ‘plural of sehri’. For example, it would be ok to say that Balma
    does not do sahoor (i.e. sehrees) but it wouldn’t be OK to say
    Balma drinks lassi during every ‘sahoor’. I was also shocked to see
    ‘Ramdan Kareem” on Pakistani English channels like Aaj, Dunya,
    Express, Bavullaas etc. In fact, when I was a kid, only think that
    deserved muabrakbaad was eid or eid kaa chaand or ramzaan kaa
    chaand- may be. I don’t remember people calling each other or
    sexting each other that oyae, Ramdan Mubarak. Poori qaum chay-vow
    kee paThee ho gayee hae.
