Behind me is the Bulund Darwaza , within its passageway lies the Holy Shriine of Khwajah Moinuddin Chishty al Sabri..on top of the Bulund Darwaza on a normal day you can read the words of the Holy Saint embedded in every Shia person s soul, including the souls of those who love Imam Hussain the Apostle of Freedom from Tyranny.

Shah ast Hussain, Badshah ast Hussain
Deen ast Hussain, Deen Panah ast Hussain

Sardad na dad dast, dar dast-e-yazeed,
Haqaa key binaey La ila ast Hussain

Loosely translated

Ruler is Hussain, Emperor is Hussain,
Faith is Hussain , guardian of faith is Hussain .
Offered his head and not the hand to Yazid.
Truly, the mirror of faith is Hussai


Imam Hussain was the grandson of the Holy Prophet of Islam who was brutally and inhumanly Martyred on the bleeding sands of Karbala.His father was Hazrat Ali ibn e Talib..Most of the Sufis consider Ali the Lion of Allah to be the source of Sufism.

Qawwalis to the Holy Saint begin with Ali..the most famous being
Man Kunto Maula made famous by late Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Qawwal

Aaaa (Sufi Chanting)

Shah-E-Mardaan, (King Of The Brave)
Shair-E-Yazdaan, (The Lion Of God)
Qoowwat-E-Parwardigaar (The Strength For God)

Legalizing Gay Sex and the Hijra, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

She requested me not to shoot her picture , she had a few days back got married to her toy boy,they had come to Ajmer Sharif to place a chaddar on the fulfillment of their marital bliss and were really taken in by each other.
This was much before gay sex became legal in Delhi..I told her I would shoot her back, she agreed , and I have not directed the shot ..it is natural and spontaneous as you can see ..

Now Gay Sex is became an issue with the Catholics they say it is against the nature of man and god, it should be banned., the Muslims the Hindu right wingers all are up in arms..including the Sikhs.

However Article 377 the draconian sodomy law is against the fundamental right of man as far consensual same sex goes..it was a guilt of the fucked Englishman dumped on the soul of our nation, a nation that gave the entire world the manual to make sex without just being missionary..we gave them Kama Sutra ,they turned it upside down and gave it back to us as porn..this is what you call the western mans sense of ingratitude and sick sense of toilet humor.

Well I am ambivalent but as a friend of the hijras ,a marginalized society of untouchables I feel its time we became more mature more tolerant to changing times..gave people the basic rights to live they want to live without hurting the sentiments of the nation, terrorism is worse than issues of same sex, or gay sex , they should be bought under the scanner..

Homosexuality has always been there and will always be there law or no law , it has survived 149 years of being criminalized , I think making it legal was the mature and finest acumen of judgment on the part of the erstwhile judges of the Delhi High Court.

The Eunuch Goat of Moti Katla, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

they castrated him
pulled out his testicles
he wept made no noise
a feminine male goat
he had no choice
eve teased by billy goats
horny boys
every body
wants to hump
him his eyes go moist
even old men in slings
with tools
they cant hoist
a eunuch goat
of moti katla
sacrificial
no choice
peddling his posteriors
to rickshah driven guys
some toy boys
even a few who
take him turn by turn
in the rich mans rolls royce
a loaded dice
called hobsons choice
stamped on his bleeding ass
article 377
may all you rejoice
