7/28/2019 For Whom the Bell Tolls in Pakistan
1/3
For whom the bell tolls
Bell is a sign of seeking attention, calling someone, indicating special time and all
the same praising, exalting, applauding and well-done for pelf activities.
The general understanding of this topic is to exalt or discourage ones actions. The
topic For whom the bell tolls has two sides. A person can take one side as
positive and the other side negative. So, which side is the positive one? It is very
difficult to decide and take a liberal decision. Different people have different
thoughts. The way some peoples minds work is very strange to other even
stranger people. So, who is right and who is wrong? In the court this problem can
be sorted out but those who are behind this stuff dont like this suggestion.
In Pakistan, the situation is quite similar. Everyone thinks his/her decision is right.So do I! We can see by this that the world is a treasure of mixed thoughts.
Terrorism is the main problem nowadays especially in Pakistan that threatens to
increase rapidly. But, not everyone dislikes it. Why? The answer is the same that
their thoughts dont match others.
Now what would someone prefer if he/she had the choice between religion and
country? Obviously, the answer would be different from religion to religion and
country to country. It depends upon the ideology of the country and the
adaptation of the religious believes.
The situation in Pakistan, the Talban as they are known, call these thoughts like,
women should have freedom of movement, right, education etc. un-Islamic and
thats why they wagejihadagainst the country and bomb the area. They kill

others so that they accept their rightbelief about Islam. On the other side of the
picture, law enforcement agencies, especially the army, fight for the country
(Pakistan), whose ideology is Islam. By saving and protecting Pakistan, the rights
of her inhabitants and the dignity of Islam, it resists and tries to controls Talibans
harassment activities by adapting different belief than Tallibans.
Both of the opposite poles think that they are the righteous and the bell should
only toll for them.
Opposite charges react with each other but still it is unclear that which is positive
and which is negative. The Taliban want to make people accept their thoughts by
force and threat but I would really like to question them that which religion
preaches brutality and force? Which religion preaches that women are inferior
and they should be deprived of certain human rights? If no, then why are they not
taught the right adaptation of the religious beliefs?
Pakistan is the only country in the world being created on the name of religion.
The army fights for Pakistan whose ideology is Islam. The army also purposely or
unpurposely forces the terrorists to accept their belief. So, again the question
arises for whom the bell tolls?
In Ernest Hemingways novel For whom the bell tolls the situation was the samethat every one thought and believed that only they were right and the other were
wrong. The Fascists on their part were wrong where as the Republicans on their
part were wrong.
In our situation the Talibans believe that their understanding about religion is
right and the other persons understanding is wrong. So, they kill those who do
not accept their views. The army has a firm belief that they are fighting for the
ideology of Pakistan and safety of her citizens. They also kill.
Whatever cause there is, killing is against humanity and it is not right no matter
what happens. The best solution would simply be to sit and discuss the matters
and agree on a certain point. But, who wants it to be like this. Everyone wants
violence, destruction, killing etc. Both groups want the downfall of each other
whether it costs them with their dear life.

Its a saying:
Small minds discuss people
Average minds discuss events
Great minds discuss ideas
Both the groups have small minds to discuss people and their beliefs.
For some peace in the world, everyone, I mean everyone, should understand that
you all are the creation of God and God is the only one who decides someones
fate. So, I would just want to say that live in peace and dont ever try to pick a
bone with anyone. Just mind your own business. God will decide the wrongdoers
punishment and it is his job to decide as he knows all.
God is there to safeguard and protect any religion. If this belief is accepted all
over the world then there will be no bell so a question would never arise that for
whom it shall toll.
I think the adaption of the religious beliefs has to be thought again and again
according to the universal presently accepted norms of morality, that is love and
peace of God. The religious leader and scholar instead of passing Fatwah and
declaring about the fate (heaven or hell - for whom bell should toll????) of their
opposite mind thinking should accept the religious beliefs of others.
It can be solved when the religious leaders and scholars will stop using religion
as a business or a trade then this business of tolling bells in regard of the
religions will be stopped.
