Barah saal ki umr mein 1972 ka saal mere liye had-e-darja mushkil ho gaya. Ghar se hostel mein rehne ka zehni dabao, har kaam khud karne ki mushkil aur bharpoor ehsaas zimmedari se taleem hasil karna. Aise maloom hota tha ke aathvi class kabhi mukammal ho hi nahi paye gi.
Magar aik mazboot deeni istiqamat ne mere liye har mamla narm kar dala. Aathvi class mein sab se junior hone ki badolat tamam bachay fouji tarz ki saza paate rahte thay. Magar mujhe aik aur mushkil se guzarna para. Mera aik senior mujh se had darja mushkil rawiya rakhta tha.
Yaad hai ke roze ki haalat mein uss ne mujhe ground ke chakkar lagwaye aur aakhir mein taqreeban be hosh ho gaya. Arz karne ka maqsad ye hai ke woh bachpan dekh hi nahi saka jo masoom bachon ke wujood ko narm o nazuk phool ki tarah sambhalta hai.
Magar qudrat ne mujhe zehni aur jismani tor par itni ista’at ata farma di ke mere liye ilm masheer ho gaya chala gaya. Aathvi class se le kar barhvi class tak hamesha apne section mein tawatar se awwal aata raha. Ajeeb baat hai ke parhne se itna lagaav paida ho gaya ke usse maqsaad-e-hayat bana liya.
Waqt guzarta gaya, aathvi se agli jamaaton mein jaata raha. Haan aik aur baat ke kisi bhi satah par kabhi tuition nahi parhi. Aik din hisaab ka aik sawal samajh nahi aaya. Magar BC ki namaz par hisaab ke teacher mohtram Bakhari sahib mile to unhen apni mushkil se aagah kiya. Kamal shafqat se unhone ghaas par aik tahnke ki madad se mere liye hisaab ka paicheeda sawal nihayat shaistagi se samjha dala.
Is maqam par apne asaatiza ka zikr karna kamal zaroori samajhta hun. Sadique sahib urdu parhate thay. Garmiyon ki chutiyon mein homework ke tor par kisi aik kitaab par tabsira likhne ka kaam sonpa. Laila Pur mein Jinnah Colony ke andar aik chhoti si anah library thi.
Wahan se maine Josh Malihabadi ki mashhoor zimana tasanif “Yadon ki Bartan Kiraye per li aur uss par tabsira likh dali.Yaran chauda saal ki umr mein kher kitaab ki jaz’iyat to kuch khaas samajh mein nahi aayi magar chand shakhsiyat ke khakay be had achay lagay. Chuttiyan khatam hui to maine tabsira Sadique sahib ki khidmat mein pesh kar diya.
Unhu ne mere saath teen bar poucha ke kya waqai mein ne ye kitaab parhi hai. Pehem aqrar par sirf aik fard kaha ke barkhrudar ye kitaab tum ne apni umr se pehle parh li hai. Sadique sahib ki urdu had-e-darja sastha thi. Aaj mujhe jo urdu zabaan par mamoli si dastaras hai us mein mohtram Sadique sahib ka had darja ehsan shamil hai.
Science ke mazaameen Saleemi sahib aur Mahfooz sahib parhate thay. Saleemi sahib chhoti qad ke haamil magar had darja baray admi thay. Aksar Jinnah ki cap pehnte thay. Is ke bilkul baraks Mahfooz sahib garaj daar awaz se bio logy parhate thay. Faqir Muhammad sahib physics parhate thay aur physics jaise mushkil mazmoon ko tarteeb se dil mein utarne ki kamiyab koshish karte thay. Jab kisi bache se koi ghalati ho jati to usse zor se chaak marte thay.
Islamiyat ka period Muhammad Hussain Chaudhry sahib lete thay. Khoob khush libas insan thay. Aik ajeeb baat likhne ko dil chahta hai jo shayad main aaj tak kisi se zikar nahi kar saka. Mere walid mohtram ko kisi dost ne Seerat-un-Nabi par aik zakeem kitaab tohafey mein di thi.
Kitaab ki khasoosiyat ye thi ke ye arabic zaban se urdu mein mualim means ki shakl mein tarjuma hui thi. Taqreeban giyarha sau se barah sau safhe ki ye kitaab aksar waqt per khatam hui to main ye tamam waqt tha aur shayad chhati class mein parh raha tha.
Aap ko shayed yaqeen na aye ke main ne Seerat-un-Nabi ki woh mukammal kitaab taqreeban ratta kar li aur ye baat kisi ko nahi batayi. Jab Muhammad Hussain Chaudhry sahib ne Seerat par aik lecture dia to apni yaddasht ke zor par un se chand sawalat puchay. Muhammad Hussain sahib aikdam chonk gaye. Farmayen lage ke ye sare sawalat tum ne kahan se khezid kiye hain.
In mein se to koi bhi Islamiyat ke syllabus ka hissa nahi hai. Jab unhen ye arz kiya ke main Seerat-un-Nabi ki aik ktaab ko mualime ki tarz per mukammal ratta kar chuka hon to unki aankhon se anso bahne lagay. Mujhe shabash di aur kaha ye Khuda ki neemat hai ke is ne had darja awal umri mein mujhe Rasool Kareem ki zindagi ke mutaliq bhar poor ilm ata kiya hai.
Ji Lawrence taareekh ke ustad thay aur unhon ne syllabus ke mutabiq had darja mehnat kar ke notes banaye thay jo tamam bacho mein taqseem kiye thay. Un notes mein chandragupta mourya se le kar Ashok, Muslim sultan, mooghal empire ke badshah aur Pakistan banne ke ahem tareen waqiat shamil thay.
Yahan aik had darja mufarid ustad ka zikr karna chahata hun. Un ka asal naam kia tha yeh to main bhool chuka hun magar unhen pura college Khateeb sahab kehtay thay. Woh aathvi se dasvi class tak Islamiyat bhi parhate thay aur masjid mein tamam namazon ki imamat ki zimmedari bhi unhen ki thi. Namaz ke doran achi tarz se tilawat karte thay. Pore panch sal yeh nahi dekha ke unhon ne kisi aik namaz ki bhi imamat na karwayi thi.
Haan yaad aya college mein fouji tarz par discipline qaem karne ke liye Captain Hasan Shah Adjutant muqarrar kiye gaye thay. Hum sare askari uniform pehnte thay magar Captain Hasan Shah khakee uniform mein muntarid hi nazar aate thay.
Sakht sardi ke doran subah chhe baje tamam cadets ke sath PT karte thay aur dor lagate thay. Aur yahi alam sham ko aik ghante ke sports period mein bhi hota tha. Captain Hasan Shah ne polo khelni shuru kar di aur Pakistan ki polo team ke captain bhi rahe. Brigadier ke uhde per pohanchay aur phir apne hi college yani Cadet College Hasan Abdal ke intizami sarbrah bhi bane.
Ab main aik deomlaee kirdar ka zikar karna chahunga aur woh thay hamare college ke Principal Colonel N D Hassan. Had darja sakht mizaaj aur kisi ke bhi raub dubey mein na aane wali shakhsiyat thay. Un ke liye Wazir-e-Azam ka beta bhi usi satah ka tha jitna aik aam aadmi ka lakh jigar. Itni masawat aur merit par yaqeen rakhne wala insaan bohot kam nazar se guzra hai. Colonel N D Hassan sahib college ke har kone mein hamesha maujud rahte thay.
Subah ki PT ho to wahan khare nazar aate thay. Agar subah parade ka time ho to wahan bhi chusti se sab kuch dekhte hue nazar aate thay. Mess mein khane ke doran bhi un ki maujoodgi mehsoos ki ja sakti thi. Sham ko games ke parade mein woh poore groundz ka chakkar lagaate thay. Aur tassali se har bachay ko khelta hua dekhte thay.
Main is column mein na apne asatiza ki shafqat, muhabbat aur mehnat ka ahata kar sakta hun aur na hi apne Principal Colonel N D Hassan ki shakhsiyat ko qalam band kar sakta hun. Bas aise lagta hai ke tamam log aik khwab mein mile thay. Aur bas sab kuch khwab hi tha.
