FRIEND DEATH

Introduction.     

We cannot decline the importance of a good friendship. During schooling and college, we make friendships to help out each other for study or something else for a good purpose. In the same way, some professional and skilled people also become friends to facilitate each other. Naturally, all stages of human life need a good companionship for good feelings and enjoying the life because it is a reality that a single human or even animal cannot enjoy his life. Sometimes, you cannot discuss your health issues or something else with your blood relative, even your parents, but you feel free to talk about all issues with your friend. I think friendship is compulsory in our life. It depends on us, how we should choose a friend, we should think elaborately before making a friendship.  

My Best Friend.    

I have a lot of friends, but Mr Abul Rashid Bajwa, nicknamed Muhammad Islam was my best friend. There is no doubt he was a handsome man from our village. His body structure was very sound with middle height, brown eyes and a good shape nose. He was much more beautiful internally than his appearance.  During their time schooling and college, all teachers and his class fellow were respected for him being an intelligent and a well-disciplined student. Participation was taken in the sports events by him, and he was also a good player of hockey and Kabbadi. He was a professionally Homeopathic Doctor; he had served in Health Department, and he had got retirement on fulfilling the conditions of his enrollment. He was a great man, and he had enjoyed a good reputation in his family and village society. All people respected him due to his positive attitude and exemplary character. We met with each other daily. At about 1600 hours, on 15 December 2020, he called me through his mobile. I went to his home. He was suffering from fever and feeling cool. During my presence, he took some medicines and recovered within one hour. The next day, due to some personal commitment, I was away from home, so I could not meet him physically however, I contacted him on mobile, and he was OK. 

My deprivation of a Best Friend.         On 17 December at about 0615 hours, after offering Morning Prayer, I was still in the mosque; Mr Muhammad Sharif Bajwa brother of Mr Abdul Rashid Bajwa stood up and asked the Mosque Imam to announce the death of Mr Abdul Rashid Bajwa in Load Speaker. The said demise was very painful to me, I did not believe in my ears. I have no words to explain my feeling at these moments; however, I left the mosque and rushed to the home of my friend. When I reached there, his middle son Electrical Engineer Mr Muhammad Kashif closed his arms around my neck and started weeping. I have understood that now I have been deprived of my best friend. My legs were not supporting me due to the shock of this sad news, so I sat down on a chair. His other two sons were also deeply sad, and their tears were continuously drooping from their eyes. The environment of the room where we were sitting offered a sad and painful picture.  My friend had all the qualities of a best friend, with the following extraordinary qualities:-

• Strength to Bear.  He had an extraordinary strength to bear the severe physically and mentally problems. During his life, he bore a lot of financial losses but he did not show his worries. He took all such burdens on his shoulder for the happiness of his family, relatives, colleagues and friends. He also faced some serious health problems with his kidney and spinal cord. As the patients with this disease feel severe pain sometimes they slightly cry. Naturally, all living species cry or extract some voices on receiving the pain but my best friend bore all diseases patiently. One day at about 1000 hours, surgery on his gallbladder was carried out in the hospital and on the same day at about 1600 hours, he slowly walked with a smiling face like a healthy man. This clearly shows us that he had great strength to bear. 

• Forgiveness.           In society, all people are not having equal qualities of thinking, behaviour, habits and attitude toward others. Once upon a time, I was sitting in the clinic of Mr Abdul Rashid Bajwa, a man who was his relative came and he misbehaved at him due to some family dispute/issue, but my friend remained cool and calm.  I felt no good and I left the clinic for home. After half hour he came to my home and sat down near me with a smiling face. He told me that I have forgiven him. We should not think about what he did? He was an immature, useless and impatient man. If we retaliate in the same manner, what difference would be between him and us?

• Positive Thinking.     Abdul Rashid Bajwa was senior to me, whenever, I shared my problem with him, he always guide me in good manners with positive thinking. He gives good advice to all to maintain the peace and harmonious atmosphere in the society/village. He always tried to remain close to all people without any discrimination. He gave the decision on the merit base on disputed matters between families or tribal’s of the village. He always spoke the truth and has good thoughts for others.

• Communication Skill.       He knew the art, and how to talk with elders and children. His language was soft, and he always used parliamentary language. He had a good ability to convey his message absolutely in a good manner. Due to the use of soft and good pronunciations as per the required situation, the opponent was become compelled to listen to his conversation or point of view. He always used the form of table talk to solve disputes. As everyone knows, the conversation is the best solution to all issues. My best friend had good communication skills.

• Look After of Family.       My best friend, Mr Abdul Rashid Bajwa did well nurturing his family in all respect. All children are well educated; he provided all legal facilities to them and also fulfilled their all legal desires. He always gave the preference for the best future for his children, and also sacrificed his rest and self-desire. The role and strives of his middle son Electrical Engineer Muhammad Kashif cannot be ruled out to co-op up his family.

Consequences.

• A good friend can support you in self-improving and making a happy life. However, you would have to be chosen a good male or female for friendship.

• We should trust our friend and should understand his problems. Your trust can stand your friendship forever.

• A good friend always remains stands with his friend in all situations.

• Do not take a test your friend because it shows your lack and confidence.

• Do not miss the opportunity of a good friendship because good friends do not come again and again in life. The death of my best friend has created space in my life. No other can fill this space.
