Two Malangs and Zaira Saif Shakir

Two Malangs and Zaira Saif Shakir, a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.

Both Nerjis Asif Shakir and me are Malangs, we live our dreams we connect without words,..and Nerjis Asif Shakir understands me the best among all my 3 grand daughters , and both Nerjis and Zaira scourged their backs with blades during Moharam.... the very same day of Athvi I cut my head with a sharp dagger the third time ..in memory of Imam Hussain our revered Saint and grandson of the Holy Prophet.

And if my grand kids were boys they would cut their heads too like but not that viciously.. we are Shia Muslim adherents and proud of our ancestry heritage and Faith..
