پچھلے موسم میں ایک نامور پاکستانی دانشور بھارت گے، دورے کے اختتام پر ایک غیر سرکاری تنظیم نے دہلی میں اُن کےاعزاز میں ایک نشست کا اہتمام کیا جس میں پاکستانی دانشور کو ”خراجِ عقیدت” پیش کرنے کے لیے چوٹی کے بھارتی دانشور تشریف لائے، نشست کے آخر میں جب سوال وجواب کا سلسلہ شروع ہوا تو ایک ہندو نے اپنے معزز مہمان سے ایک عجیب سوال پوچھا،پوچھنے والے نے پوچھا۔” یہاں بھارت میں تو مسلمان مساجد میں نماز ادا کرتےہیں وہاں پاکستان میں کہاں پڑھتے ہیں؟” پاکستانی دانشور نے اِس سوال کو مذاق سمجھ کر فلک شگاف قہقہ لگایا لیکن جب اُنہیں محفل کی طرف سے کوئی خاص ردعمل موصول نہ ہوا تو اُنہوں نے کھسیانا ساہوکر سوالی کی طرف دیکھا ،ہندو دانشور کے چہرے پر سنجیدگی کے ڈھیرلگے تھے، پاکستانی دانشور نے بے چینی سے پہلو بدل کر جواب دیا۔ ”ظاہر ہے مسجدوں ہی میں پڑھتے ہیں۔” یہ جواب سن کر ہندو دانشور کھڑا ہوا،ایک نظر حاضرین پر ڈالی اور پھر مسکرا کر بولا۔” لیکن ہماری اطلاعات کے مطابق تو پاکستانی مسجدوں میں نماز پڑھنے والوں کو گولی ماردی جاتی ہے۔” ہندو دانشور کا یہ تبصرہ پاکستانی دانشور کو سکڈ میزائل کی طرح لگا اُس کا ماتھا ...

The time had finally come to make my way to Moscow to watch the FIFA World Cup. I had been watching the first eight days of the tournament on television at my home in Karachi. But now, it was time to make my dream come true: I was travelling to Moscow to watch the matches live, the tickets for which I had bought eight months ago. Essentials for travelling to this World Cup are your fan ID, match tickets, passport, $1,000 and personal belongings. Yes, it’s as simple as this. The fan ID is your visa to Russia. To get a fan ID you must buy a match ticket from fifa.com and then go to fan-id.rus to apply for it. The fan ID requirements are a clear passport-sized photo, a valid passport and match tickets. You can print your fan ID from the email they will send. Although the tickets to this World Cup are expensive compared to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, there are many free amenities for match goers.
