    ‘I haven’t really moved on’: Zara Noor Abbas remembers late son

    Zara Noor Abbas appeared as a guest on Faysal Qureshi’s podcast, where she shared her feelings about grief and the joy of being a mother to her daughter Nure Jahan.

    The host asked, “After Nure Jahan, and that whole process of yours from before, have you moved on from it?”

    Zara replied, “I haven’t really moved on, I mean, my firstborn will always be a son. It’s funny because I had ordered a lot of clothes for him, and Nure Jahan is wearing those clothes these days. She has to wear those tie things and shorts. Just yesterday, she wore a onesie. Nure will have to wear boys’ clothes for a year because I will use all his boy clothes here. So, it’s a beautiful thing. I tell her every day that she’s wearing her brother’s clothes.”

    Reflecting on her experience, Zara expressed a wish to have had children earlier, saying,

    “I wish I had known that this is how my life, my body, my mind would process this, because it’s a natural state of your body also for a woman. Yes, that’s very true. If I had known this would happen, I would have prepared beforehand.”

    In 2022, Zara Noor Abbas had a miscarriage, and she lost her son named Aurangzeb.

    Information Adviser to Chief Minister (CM) of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Barrister Muhammad Ali Saif has invited Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar to join Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) protests during his visit to Islamabad.

    Responding to Pakistan’s interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi’s request for PTI to postpone their protest as the SCO summit draws near, he said, “India buhat bari jamhooriyat ka dawaa krtay hain, kiya ap un kay Foreign Minister ko yeh dikha rahay hain kay government nay protest ko cancel kr diya.”

    Commenting on the deployment of Pakistan Army in the federal capital, he stated, “The army is deployed over security concerns for the SCO summit, and it has nothing to do with the PTI protest.”

    “Pakistan’s constitution grants us the right to protest anywhere in the country,” he concluded.

    “I saw more than a dozen online advertisements for Halaala centers in Karachi alone, providing complete addresses, phone numbers, and other details,” she claimed, further stating that “Halaala centers are operating openly in various cities, with regular addresses provided for these centers.”
