Zahoor — Jisne Apno Ke Liye Zindagi Guzar Di
Zahoor pichle 25 saal se Jeddah mein kaam kar raha tha. Uski family India mein rehti thi - uski wife, do bete aur ek beti.
Har roz Zahoor subah 7:30 baje apne ghar se job ke liye nikalta aur shaam kareeb 5 baje wapas aata. Saalon tak uski zindagi isi routine mein guzarti rahi.
Jeddah mein woh ek 4BHK flat mein rehta tha. Ek room uska apna tha. Baaki teen rooms usne apne doston ke liye khol rakhe the.
Ek room mein bada TV tha, jahan dost milkar movies dekhte the. Doosre room mein chess, carrom board aur dominoes rakhe the. Teesra room un logon ke liye tha jo thodi der aaram ya neend karna chahte the.
Zahoor apne doston ke liye sabzi, meat, fish aur ghar ka doosra samaan lane ke liye paise deta tha. Dost milkar khana banate aur sab saath baithkar khana khate.
Lekin Zahoor ke dil mein ek baat hamesha rehti thi. Woh apni family ke paas India wapas jaana chahta tha. Jab bhi woh apni wife se phone par baat karta aur kehta,
Ab mera dil nahi lagta. Main job chodkar hamesha ke liye India wapas aana chahta hoon.
Uski wife aksar kehti,
India aakar kya karoge? Yahin raho, kamao aur paise bhejo.
Zahoor chup ho jaata.
Usne apni zindagi ke 25 saal family ke liye Saudi mein guzare. Har mahine apni family ko paise bhejta raha.
Uske dono bete bade hue, unki shaadi hui. Beti ki bhi shaadi ho gayi.
Lekin Zahoor ke dil mein ek khwab ab bhi tha - ek din sab kuch chodkar apne bachchon aur family ke saath sukoon se rahega.
Zahoor sirf apni family ke liye hi nahi, balki doosron ke liye bhi bahut madadgar aadmi tha.
Agar India se koi ladka Saudi aata aur usko job nahi milti, toh Zahoor usse kehta:
"Job milne tak mere ghar mein raho. Room ka koi charge nahi, khane ka bhi koi charge nahi."
Bahut se logon ne uske ghar mein rehkar apni zindagi shuru ki.
Saal guzarte gaye.
Aakhir ek din Zahoor ne faisla kar liya.
Is baar woh kisi ko bataye bina India wapas chala gaya. Usne socha tha ki ab apni family ke saath baaki zindagi sukoon se guzarega.
Pehle ek hafte ya 10 din tak sab kuch theek raha, lekin uske baad cheezein badalne lagi.
Uski wife choti-choti baaton par usse naraz aur taane marne lagi.
Kyun aaye ho?
Yahan kya hai?
Ghar kaise chalega?
Ab tum kamaoge kya?
Zahoor ko yeh baatein andar se todne lagi.
Halaanki uske dono bete India mein achhi salary kama rahe the, phir bhi Zahoor ko lagne laga ki uski apne hi ghar mein koi zarurat nahi hai.
Ek din Zahoor apne grandson ke saath khel raha tha, uski bahu aayi, bachche ko uske paas se uthaya aur kaha, Ab bachche ke khane ka time hai.
Baat chhoti thi, lekin Zahoor ke dil par iska asar bahut gehra hua.
kuch time bad ghar mein usse koi theek se baat nahi karta tha.
Zahoor zyada waqt ghar ke bahar akela rehne laga.
Kabhi ghanton bahar baitha rehta.
Uska dil ghar jaane ko nahi karta tha.
Jis ghar ko dekhne ke liye usne 25 saal Saudi mein guzare the, ab wahi ghar usko apna nahi lag raha tha.
6 mahine isi tarah guzarte gaye, aakhir ek din Zahoor ne Jeddah mein apne ek purane dost ko phone kiya.
Uski awaaz mein dard tha, usne kaha, Bhai, jo bhi ho sakta hai karo, mere ko visa bhejo. Main Jeddah wapas aana chahta hoon. Main yahan nahi reh sakta... mujhe lagta hai main yahin mar jaunga."
Uske dost ne yeh baat baaki doston ko batayi.
Sab ne milkar faisla kiya ki Zahoor ko wapas bulaya jayega.
Doston ne milkar paise jama kiye, uske liye naya visa kharida aur Zahoor ko Jeddah wapas bula liya, jis flat mein Zahoor pehle rehta tha, woh ab uske ek dost ne le liya tha, lekin jab Zahoor wapas aaya, sab kuch phir se pehle jaisa ho gaya, dost aate, baithte, baatein karte, movies dekhte, games khelte aur saath khana khate.
Flat ke owner ne Zahoor ko uska wahi purana room de diya.
Usne kaha:
"Bade bhai, aap ab bhi is ghar ke bade bhai ho. Yahan kuch nahi badla. Aap sab sambhal lo."
Zahoor phir se apne purane doston ke beech aa gaya.
Har mahine jab doston ko salary milti, sab milkar Zahoor ko taqreeban 2,500 se 3,000 Riyal dete, taaki uske apne kharch ke paise rahein, Zahoor ke paas ab job nahi thi, lekin uske paas dost the, wahi dost jinke liye usne saalon tak apna ghar khula rakha tha, ab woh dost uske saath khade the.
Din guzarte gaye.
Zahoor ne apni family ko phone karna band kar diya.
Family phone karti toh bhi woh unse baat nahi karta.
approximately, saat mahine baad ek din Zahoor ko apne flat mein heart attack aaya.
Aur uski wahi Jeddah wale ghar mein maut ho gayi.
Uske ek dost ne India mein uski family ko phone karke khabar di.
Khabar sunte hi uski wife aur bachche rone lage.
Unhone kaha:
"Zahoor ka body India bhejo. Hum usko yahin dafan karna chahte hain."
Lekin uske dost ne kaha:
"Zahoor ne humein pehle hi keh diya tha... agar meri maut ho jaaye toh mera body India mat bhejna. Mujhe Jeddah mein hi dafan karna."
Jis aadmi ne apni zindagi ke 25 saal apne ghar walon ke liye Saudi mein guzare...
Aakhir mein uska ghar Jeddah ke woh dost bane, jinhe usne kabhi apna samajh kar apne ghar mein jagah di thi.
Moral
Zindagi mein sirf paisa kamana aur family ki zarooraton ko poora karna hi kaafi nahi hota. insaan ko paison ke saath izzat, mohabbat, waqt aur apnapan bhi chahiye,
Kabhi-kabhi hum kisi insaan ki qadar tab samajhte hain jab woh humare paas nahi hota.
Isliye jo log hamare liye saalon tak sacrifice karte hain, unki qadar unke zinda rehte hue karni chahiye.
Kyunki kuch log chale jaate hain... aur unke jaane ke baad sirf afsos reh jaata hai.
