Dancing in the desert
DIARY OF A VAGABOND (Magazine,DAWN,Sunday,March, 27, 2005)

Mustansar Hussain Tarar
"Saeen Tarar, there is a limit to indecency, may Allah forgive fer, look at her closely. She is hardly wearing anything and the way she is shaking her body, Toba Toba!" , the pious Pakistani gentleman squatting next to me touched his ear lobes.
"Sir it is great sin to look at half-naked females, so do not look," I suggested.
"Saeen, I have paid a lot of dirhams to look at her so I have to look."
In the desert night, in front of our tent a belly dancer's slim body convylsed as she was going to have a fit of uncontrolable delight. This was the climax of the famous desert safari, ...Dubai. ___
___ After sometime he asked me, "Tarar Saeen tell me, is this dancer a Muslim?"
" Your guess is as good as mine, what if she is?"
"Toba Toba! saeen, a muslim girl dancing half-naked is shameful, she should be properly clad."
"I totally agree," I was rather enjoying the company of this intresting gentleman.
"Why dont you go up to the lady and cover her with your ajrak?"
"Do you think I should do it?" he became thoughtful.
"It is your duty as a good Muslim," I encouraged him though he did not need any encouragement being so high spirited. "You will be blessed on the day of judgement for this noble act."
He took off his ajrak and held it in front of him like a matador advancing towards a bull. "I would cover hernakedness so help me God," he went towards the belly dancer with resolute determination and when he was face to face with her and everyone was waiting that he will cover her with his ajrak, a totally unexpected thing happened; instead of performing his noble duty, he threw away the ajrak with a shout of "Ya Allah", and started dancing with her in pure ecstacy!
The next day I was leaving Dubai for Lahore and there in the desert night, a righteous Pakistani was dancing with the belly dancer forgetting that he had gone theer to clad her properly.

nice blog. i enjoyed reading your posts alot.
Hahahaha. Is he your saga chaacha?
i wish he were:) but still hes "the chacha g" for all those who used to wait for his mornin transmissions, the kiddy artworks n tht 8 0 clock cartoon. if it ws ever missed, mom ws supposed to keep track of all the recordings.well we grew up watching him. so he'll always be "chacha g " for us.
I think Mustansar Hussain Tarar (MHT) is about as guilty (if not more) as the other guy in the story.
Belly dancing is a shameful act, and as muslims they should have avoided it in the first place. But encouraging another person what MHT should have done himself and then pointing his finger at the other person and making him look guilty is pathetic.
