About Me ~ Meo School of Research

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

ضروری تو نہیں تھا کہ پھرتے جنت کے سردار کربلا میں

نہ جانے کتنی پسند تھی رب کو شہادت حسین (علیہ السلام) کی

ڈاکٹر محمد سعید میو

All the praises and thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists).
The Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
The Only Owner of the Day of Recompense (i.e. the Day of Resurrection)
You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help.
Guide us to the Straight Way...
The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger, nor of those who went astray. (The Qur'an- Surah Al-Fatihah)”
