You still did not tell me whether you are American or Arab. Which country are you from my proud Arab friend? That your mother earned a living out of teaching Arabic for twenty eight long years leaves no doubt as to your obsession with the language. Yes, you are right, that does not mean that all Pakis can understand Arabic as well as Arabs do.

By the way, the discussion was about gender inequality not Arabic. Believe me it neither the Arabs nor Ajams who discriminate on the basis of gender more. Gender discrimination has been prevalent from the time of jahilliat in Arabs and it has been present in Pakistan too. I have not heard of girls being considered a shame and buried alive in the sub-continent (a practice which you, as a proud Arab, must know of), but I know there have been many similar practices in my area too. In fact, no single place has ever been free of gender discrimination.

You know what? I am starting to think over your point. None of my teachers has been Arabic (except of course a couple of sweet friends, who taught me slang words, hence they are my teachers). No wonder then I might have understood religion in a different way, according to you. I must apologise to you, son of a mother who taught Arabic for twenty eight years, that I am just going to write one sentence to you, in Arabic, and you must excuse me because I know that since you are born to someone whose native language is Arabic and who taught it for three decades, you would certainly find the words of a non-entity Paki rather too flawed to suit your high tastes. I would yet dare to write it down, even if it means breaking all the rules of the language that you are so proud of:

لن نذكر اوج بن عنق بعد الان ... فقد وجدنا بديلا عنه
