00:00Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, Assalamu Alaikum,
00:13I welcome you all to the program, Kaif Faqeer.
00:15We will proceed in the same format.
00:19Your questions reach us, and you are with us as always,
00:23and you are with us today as well, Mr. Syed Sarfaraz Ahmad Shah.
00:26You keep sending us your questions, and suggest us your topics,
00:31and we will give you such answers, that if you follow them,
00:35then your life will be better.
00:37One thing has come to me, which is being discussed a lot on social media,
00:43and on one hand, I have seen that all its points are very important.
00:46It happened that a while ago, a woman jumped into a river with three children and committed suicide.
00:53This incident is very saddening, no matter how saddening it is,
00:57because it is said that she committed suicide because of poverty.
01:01But there was a debate on social media, as to who is to blame for this.
01:05Someone gave the example of Hazrat Umar R.A, that it is the responsibility of Haqim-e-Baq to provide food to the poor.
01:15Someone said that it is the responsibility of Haqim-e-Baq to provide food to the poor.
01:26Some people say that it is the responsibility of the society to provide food to the poor.
01:35Some say that it is the responsibility of the rich to provide food to the poor.
01:44Some say that it is the responsibility of the poor to provide food to the poor.
01:46There are many people who have started criticizing that family.
01:52They have said that if they were so poor, then why did they give birth to so many children?
01:57So, these are many questions that are coming to us.
02:02Many people are victims of poverty.
02:07So, should they not have children?
02:11Or should we pay more attention to the other three or four points that I have mentioned?
02:20In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Ever Merciful.
02:25Fundamentally, it is the responsibility of the government to provide food,
02:33to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor,
02:41to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor,
02:46to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor,
02:52to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor, to provide food to the poor,
03:00perhaps the government was not so vast.
03:04In my opinion, this is a little far from the facts.
03:13In the era of Hazrat Umar's government, the Islamic country had become very vast.
03:27If you add up the entire Indian subcontinent, it is even more vast.
03:36But the control of the center was very effective.
03:43You can guess from this that there was a complaint about a governor
03:47who had set up a guard at home and the people did not have access to him.
03:57He was called to Madinah Munawwara and he was beheaded.
04:02So, when the governor, who was sitting in the center,
04:12was so alert that no matter how vast the country was, the affairs were going well.
04:25The mistake we are making is that instead of protecting the sheep,
04:38instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:44instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:47instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:49instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:51instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:53instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:55instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:57instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
04:59instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
05:01instead of protecting the cattle, instead of protecting the cattle,
05:03then the sheep can never go left or right.
05:07There was a time when the deputy commissioner, who was the head of a district,
05:15his responsibility was that there should not be a shortage of anything in the market,
05:24so that the oil of the soil should not be short.
05:29A deputy commissioner was responsible for this in his entire district.
05:37And wherever there was a problem, the deputy commissioner was asked why this happened.
05:47It was not that he was asked why he did this.
05:53This is his job, he will ask.
05:59So, this method of running the administration is ideal.
06:12The nature of the sheep is that they have to go left and right.
06:18And we appointed the deputy commissioner to keep the sheep in one place.
06:23So, if the sheep go there and there, there is no fault of the sheep.
06:28It is his nature.
06:30It is the fault of the deputy commissioner that he could not complete his duty.
06:34So, it should be asked from the deputy commissioner.
06:38Right.
06:39This is one thing.
06:40Right.
06:41So, we say to the government that, sir, in such a vast country,
06:46the government cannot take care of each person.
06:50This cannot be done.
06:52It is obvious that if a person takes such a big step to lose his most precious thing,
07:02so when he comes to take his own life, it means that he has reached the last limit.
07:13So, before reaching the last limit, these women or their husbands must have pleaded
07:23at different places.
07:25Why did the government fail?
07:27Why did the district administration fail to help them?
07:32This is one thing.
07:34Because there is not a single fault in this.
07:38The second thing is that the people around them,
07:44if they are right on social media,
07:49we are all Muslims, Alhamdulillah.
07:52And we are citizens of a Muslim country.
07:56Islam teaches us that our neighbours should not sleep hungry.
08:05So, the people around them, they would share their food with them.
08:17They would share their poverty with them.
08:21But we failed in that.
08:26We did not do it.
08:28So, this is the indifference of their neighbouring Muslims.
08:34All these things are being said on social media.
08:39But our problem is only one thing.
08:43We wake up when an accident happens.
08:47And we remember it for a few days, and then we go back to the old way.
08:53This is our behaviour.
08:57There is a group of deer.
09:02When a hunter fires there,
09:07one or two deer fall.
09:10No one looks back to see where their companion has gone.
09:14They start grazing like that.
09:18This is the behaviour that should be controlled.
09:24That we keep an eye on the people around us.
09:27So, this is the second thing.
09:30The people around us should keep an eye on what is happening in our neighbourhood.
09:37And then there are the volunteers of the area.
09:41One thing that makes me very happy is that
09:45Pakistan is one of the countries that gives maximum charity.
09:50Maximum charity is given here.
09:54The volunteers are here, and I personally know a lot of people
10:02who have made the creation of God a part of their livelihood.
10:08In the livelihood that God is giving them,
10:11they make other people of God a part of their livelihood, without any greed.
10:16But, perhaps, from their point of view, this family has become empty.
10:27For example, we have a library called Seelani.
10:36We have a library of Bahria.
10:43There are many other people.
10:46So, if this family had approached them once,
10:51and told them about the situation,
10:54then I know a lot of people who distribute ration every month.
11:02I remember a story from this ration.
11:06There was Mr. Ashfaq.
11:08His wife came.
11:10She said,
11:12Once he said to me,
11:15Shahji, the state in which you are seeing us,
11:19we have never been like this.
11:22We have gone through a time when if we had to buy a table fan,
11:29we did not count its value in money.
11:34We used to count how many scripts are worth it.
11:39The point is that if we write so many scripts together,
11:44then we can buy a table fan with the money we get from it.
11:48We had such a time.
11:52So, Mr. Ashfaq was interested in going to Baba.
11:58He had a Murshid as well.
12:00Mr. Fazal Hussain Shah and Baba Noorwale.
12:05So, both husbands went to Baba Noorwale.
12:12So, they gave an advice.
12:17Son, before using your ration, wash it.
12:24So, both listened to it and came.
12:27Mr. Ashfaq and Sister Banu Qudsiya.
12:30So, while lying down at night,
12:32I thought that if I wash the ration, what will be left?
12:38So, Sister Banu Qudsiya asked Mr. Ashfaq,
12:42Khalsa, Baba Noorwale said, wash the ration.
12:47If we wash the ration, what will be left?
12:52Mr. Ashfaq said, I did not understand this either.
12:57So, the decision was that we will go to Baba Noorwale again tomorrow
13:02and ask him.
13:04So, the next day, we went to Baba Noorwale and asked him,
13:07yesterday you had given an order,
13:09that before using your ration, wash it.
13:14So, how will we wash it?
13:17Baba Noorwale said, it is a very easy task.
13:21The amount of ration that you take for a month to your kitchen,
13:29get another carton packed.
13:35So, before taking the ration home,
13:37give that carton to someone on the way.
13:40So, your ration was washed like this.
13:43Mr. Shah, I apologize.
13:44We have to take a small break here.
13:45Please allow for a break.
13:46We will come back after the break.
13:48At your service.
13:49Welcome back.
13:50Nowadays, when we go out,
13:53we see that on the busiest streets,
13:58wherever there are good shops,
14:00in front of them, with small children,
14:04men and women are standing,
14:06and they are asking for something.
14:09So, there the question arises,
14:11which people raise about this,
14:14which I also said in that,
14:15that why are you giving birth to so many children,
14:18but you cannot carry this burden.
14:21So, is there no need to explain to them
14:24to reduce their population,
14:26to reduce their age,
14:28or maybe they are too young to understand this.
14:33In this, more than understanding and explaining,
14:38there is a need to keep an eye on human psychology.
14:44I think that there is a lot of compulsion of children there.
14:51I may not be able to speak openly about this.
14:59There are some things that should not be discussed.
15:05Or because of the lack of education,
15:10I do not have the words.
15:13I may not be able to express them in beautiful and concise words.
15:28So, I have never discussed this aspect of human life.
15:34Maybe it is a compulsion of man.
15:42So, it will be unjust for them if they give such advice.
15:48Right.
15:50A report has just come from the World Bank.
15:53We will talk a little about that as well.
15:56They have pointed out a lot of issues facing Pakistan.
16:03Our national debt has reached up to 78%.
16:12This is a lot.
16:14All the departments are saying that they have slowed down.
16:19It has also been said that 79% of 10-year-old children
16:29are out of school.
16:31They do not have the ability to think and understand.
16:35They are not capable of managing the country in the future.
16:39So, if we look at education in this way,
16:45that 79% of children do not have the ability to think and understand,
16:50then it is a lot of worry for us.
16:54You are right.
16:56Yes.
17:00If we call it a population bomb,
17:05that it will explode at any time and the economy will collapse,
17:11then it will not be wrong.
17:14But I may not be able to agree on one thing.
17:20The good of the World Bank is that our debt has reached up to 78% of GDP.
17:33The standard is that if a country's debt reaches up to 60% of GDP,
17:42then there is a danger.
17:46We have reached up to 78%.
17:48Yes.
17:49But this is not a matter of worry.
17:54Today, there is a lot of talk about Shining India in our country.
18:03If you look at it, it has 80% of GDP.
18:12But with one difference,
18:16that it is built,
18:19it is in its blood, it is in its genes,
18:24to take a loan and give it.
18:28They have taken a loan,
18:32they have utilized it on those projects that are productive.
18:41They have not taken a non-productive expense from that loan.
18:47So, the basis of taking a loan,
18:50the right basis,
18:52is that we take big projects.
18:57Like we did,
18:59in the early 60s,
19:01that Tarbela Dam and Mangala Dam should be built.
19:04At that time, we took a loan for that.
19:09But all that loan was used at the right place.
19:14It was a productive place.
19:16Now, this dam,
19:18since it was built,
19:20has returned its cost to us many times.
19:25We made a mistake that we took a loan
19:28and spent it on non-productive projects,
19:33which were not needed.
19:36Whenever I talk to you,
19:38I always tell you one thing.
19:45For the last 50-55 years,
19:49we have been running our economy without a plan.
19:53The country is being run on whims.
19:57The result is that all the work we have done,
20:02we have built powerhouses in a few years.
20:13In what terms?
20:17At what cost?
20:20We did not think that the power we generate,
20:25how will it be transmitted?
20:28The transmission lines will not take our load.
20:33So, for whom will we produce electricity?
20:36We did not think about this.
20:38We invested money blindly.
20:41Now, the result is that all the powerhouses are closed.
20:47We made agreements with the IPP.
20:50Only in this zeal,
20:53that our vote bank will increase,
20:56we will secure some political mileage.
21:01We took the terms of it,
21:04which are old-fashioned terms.
21:07We signed them.
21:12You don't go far.
21:15Although it is a little disappointing to say this,
21:19that in Afghanistan,
21:21we think that there is not much education.
21:24It is a backward area.
21:26May Allah forgive me for these words.
21:29But this is the general feeling in everyone's hearts.
21:34It is really disappointing to say this.
21:37But,
21:39you see,
21:41they made an agreement with China to build a huge dam,
21:47on which 1200 megawatts of electricity will be generated,
21:51and irrigation.
21:54What is the agreement saying?
21:58That they have to complete the dam in five years.
22:03The engineers,
22:05the technical support from China,
22:08is on a 50% basis.
22:11Their technical staff will be 50% from China,
22:14and 50% from Afghanistan.
22:18All the workers will be slaves.
22:21All the workers will be slaves.
22:27All the material that is available in Afghanistan,
22:31will be used by the slaves.
22:36We made agreements with China.
22:39Many projects were done by China,
22:41and we are grateful to them.
22:43The Chinese have completed them very quickly.
22:46We are grateful to them.
22:48I am not being ungrateful.
22:53But the terms that we agreed with them,
22:56came all the way from China.
23:03So when we make agreements,
23:05we close our eyes like this.
23:09The projects that come into existence as a result of these agreements,
23:13instead of being beneficial,
23:15become a burden on us.
23:19So taking a loan is not a bad thing.
23:22Everyone takes a loan.
23:24America is the richest country in the world.
23:27It is the most dependable country in the world.
23:31America.
23:32America.
23:33Yes.
23:34If a house,
23:36a family,
23:38takes a loan,
23:40and after taking the loan,
23:42they spend the money on the house.
23:48This is non-productive.
23:51So the burden of the loan comes on them,
23:53and they find it difficult.
23:56But if they take a loan,
23:58and spend it in such a place,
24:01from where they get so much income,
24:04that they can do debt servicing,
24:07and return the principal amount.
24:11Then it becomes an asset.
24:16If we look at it on an individual level,
24:19and then expand the canvas,
24:22and take it to a national level,
24:24then we will understand.
24:27If we have spent money in such places,
24:30from which we are getting a return,
24:34then we leave it.
24:37But if we spend it in such places,
24:40where we have to take more loans to repay the loan,
24:45then it is a wrong situation.
24:47In management, we are taught,
24:53that two things are poison for the organization.
25:01One is that we have to take more loans to repay the loan.
25:09This is a worse situation.
25:11Consider that you have committed suicide.
25:15And the second situation is that,
25:17if there are different units in a group,
25:23then the profit-making unit,
25:26take money from there,
25:28and invest it in the loss-making unit.
25:33This is poison for the organization.
25:37So, expand the canvas,
25:40and take it to a national level.
25:46Then we will understand.
25:48Our conversation will continue,
25:50but let's take a break.
25:53Welcome back.
25:54Mr. Shah, we took a break.
25:56We were investing the least amount in the loss-making unit.
26:00And the quality of education was even lower there.
26:04In the report of the Human Capital World Bank,
26:10it is said that there is a lack there as well.
26:13There are a lot of problems.
26:15It is being highlighted there.
26:17So, on the one hand,
26:19we are very proud to say that,
26:21in our country,
26:22Allah has blessed us that,
26:2460% of the youth are young.
26:27But those youth,
26:29are not provided with the skills,
26:32on the basis of which,
26:34they can take advantage,
26:36or can be beneficial for the country.
26:38Mr. Rao,
26:39even if you invest 50% of the budget,
26:42on education,
26:46we will not be able to manage things.
26:50That is the basis.
26:55Do you get any indication,
27:01that after 5 years,
27:05how many mechanical engineers,
27:10electrical engineers,
27:12electronic engineers,
27:14and so on and so forth,
27:16will we need?
27:18Do you have any such plan?
27:21We have not made it.
27:24We are producing without any plan.
27:32We are moving forward without any plan.
27:37This is one thing.
27:39Our talented children,
27:43they go abroad for higher education.
27:47Do we provide them with the environment,
27:51so that they can come back and work here?
27:57Even if someone comes back,
27:59after a while,
28:01he goes back disappointed.
28:06In an unplanned way,
28:08no matter how much you invest,
28:10you will not get the desired results.
28:13You will not get the results.
28:15This will happen,
28:17when things are planned,
28:20that in the next 5 years,
28:23we will have this much industry.
28:27This type of industry is needed in our country.
28:31We will work on it.
28:33There was a time when you planned,
28:35your investor was Shahi,
28:38to start some type of industry.
28:42The government studied it,
28:45and after studying it,
28:47made a department,
28:49PIDC,
28:51Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation.
28:54Two more departments were made,
28:57WPIDC,
28:59West Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation,
29:02and EPIDC,
29:04East Pakistan Industrial Development Corporation.
29:09Their responsibility was,
29:12to set up such projects,
29:15which are needed in their country,
29:17but the private sector is Shahi,
29:19to invest money there,
29:21because they are not sure,
29:23that the ROI will be proper or not.
29:27Return on Investment.
29:29It will be proper or not.
29:33These two departments,
29:35WPIDC and EPIDC,
29:37used to set up these projects,
29:39run them,
29:41and privatize them,
29:43and give them to the public.
29:45The result of that was,
29:47the private sector investor,
29:49used to see that,
29:51this is a profit making unit,
29:53now I can buy it.
29:57The result of that was,
29:59that by 1968,
30:03we were able to industrialize 38% of the country.
30:07This was possible,
30:09only in one way,
30:11it was planned.
30:15Industrialization,
30:17will be this much every year,
30:19in the country.
30:21We will need so many people,
30:23for that.
30:25So, in the institutions,
30:27it should be controlled like this,
30:29unseen.
30:31It is not visible,
30:33it is invisible control.
30:35And we create experts,
30:37for our needs,
30:39in our country,
30:41whom we employ.
30:43Usefully employment.
30:45It is necessary to do this,
30:47but the way we are running the country,
30:49without any competition.
30:53This happens in our institutions too.
30:57I am not a government official,
30:59nor am I an expert,
31:01nor have I received any education,
31:03but,
31:05I have experience.
31:09We just got to know,
31:11we had a meeting,
31:13we came to know that,
31:15there is a huge shortage of raw material.
31:17Because of that,
31:19production is being affected.
31:21All resources were diverted,
31:23and on top of that,
31:25instructions came,
31:27top man,
31:29that do anything,
31:31management,
31:33all resources have been diverted,
31:35for procurement of raw material.
31:39Raw material came,
31:41in the meantime,
31:43we came to know that,
31:45there is no money to pay the electricity bill.
31:47Now, the time has come,
31:49to generate funds,
31:51to pay the electricity bill.
31:53When we pay the electricity bill,
31:55we come to know that,
31:57the excise was due on us,
31:59there was no money to pay.
32:01All resources were diverted.
32:05Everything else is being neglected.
32:07So,
32:09all the time of management,
32:11is spent in this firefighting.
32:13But those institutions,
32:15where proper,
32:17not only the budget is made,
32:21but,
32:23its implementation is monitored regularly.
32:25They,
32:27do not go through,
32:29these situations.
32:33Why do multinationals,
32:35succeed?
32:37Multinationals,
32:39go up to this point.
32:41This was,
32:43a great passion of my life.
32:45Now,
32:47they ask you,
32:49how much misuse,
32:51did you put in it?
32:53Misuse is dishonesty,
32:55how can you put that in it?
32:57No, you cannot,
32:59keep human nature,
33:01on one side.
33:05It has to be misused.
33:07So, when it is misused,
33:09your budget will be out.
33:11Provide 20%,
33:13X plus 20%,
33:15is the real expense.
33:19Telephone bills,
33:21post telegraph and telephone,
33:23this is the head.
33:25When,
33:27it is allocated,
33:29they put 20% in it.
33:31They put it in the stationery.
33:33The result is,
33:35a very realistic budget comes.
33:37At the end of the year,
33:39when you check,
33:41you find out,
33:43that the budget,
33:45is exactly in its place.
33:47Mr. Arshad Shah,
33:49you have raised many points,
33:51and I think,
33:53we should think about them.
33:55All the points,
33:57regarding the budget,
33:59development projects,
34:01which you were saying,
34:03and if the institutions,
34:05and governments,
34:07act on it,
34:09I think it can be very beneficial.
34:11But, your talk will be incomplete.
34:13Our program is running out of time.
34:15One request is,
34:17send us your questions,
34:19and topics,
34:21so that we can include them in the program.
34:23With your permission,
34:25Allah Hafiz.
