Atif Aslam of the 'Woh Lamhe' and 'Tere Bin' fame has become the youngest Pakistani pop star to receive the 'Tamgha-e-Imtiaz', a civilian award given for doing the Pakistan proud globally. The musician, who has been a huge hit in India since he sang "Woh Lahme" which was picturized on Bollywood's Emran Hashmi, showed up in a black sherwani to receive the award from the Punjab Governor on Pakistan Day on March 23rd. Aslam, who has performed in about 25 countries in 2007, says that he got the award because he represented Pakistan a lot this year outside the country. That's what the 'Tamgha-e-Imtiaz' stands for. It's awarded to people who make Pakistan proud globally.
Significantly, Aslam has friends as well as critics in India. While Bollywood's sultry actress Bipasha Basu is crazy on Aslam, the Indian singers including Sunidhi Chauhan and Abhijeet criticise Pakistani pop singer and claim that Aslam cannot sing! Aslam doesn't contest the Indian singers' criticism and admits that he has never claimed that he can sing. He says, "I never said I can sing. Look, unlike these guys I have no professional training and I always say that I cannot sing. I agree I cannot sing. What's amazing is that I've made a career out of doing something I can't do," Aslam adds. Asked about joining Bollywood, Aslam said, "I have offers but am waiting for the right script, no matter how clichéd that sounds. Right now my music career is going great." Incidentally, Shoaib Mansoor whose critically acclaimed film 'Khuda Kay Liye' on the life of Muslims in the post-9/11 era releasing in India on 4th April was given Pakistan's highest civilian award, the "Sitara-i-Imtaiz".

movie main facts ko twist kiya gaya tha... if u want me to go thru em i can do that for u
as for muslim scholars there is a school of thought which agrees that music is allowed.... but thats hardly 20% so u cant imply those "views" as islamic... 2ndly when u talk about islamic scholars.... its a proper way n a proper degree that u hav to reach... amir liaqat aint a islamic scholar

the thing is called "giving an example" lemme go baq again you said that khuda kay liye was a great movie... and so is the novel by salman rushdie... on basis of novel writing it is one of the best... so if u make a movie or do something it doesnt matter, what matters is wats "in" it

agar aap nay religion ko study kiya ho to u wud get to know that in sunni sect there are two major school of thoughts... Braivli and Deo Bandi.... none of em are in favor of music being injected... I dont have enough knowledge abt the shia sect so cant comment... n u r totally right keh movie kay baad music sunanna na logon nay band kiya hoga na shuru... but the thing is that keh ghalat cheez ghalat hoti hai chahy uska effect ho ya na ho

can you please name em, two i know are tahir-ul-qadri and ghamdi.... tahir sahib apart but ghamdi is himself a very controversial person.... anywayzzz i didnt saw any of the popular scholars favoring music

hope this answers ur question as for u "researching" lady may i ask how many books of sihah-e-sitta have you read???
ok you might not know the names but internet is a big world you can explore n please let me know...
as for the post... been there done that
as i told u earlier that m not much of a student of religion myself... so i cant go on n debate.... a very short example, when u read a newspaper do u go on checking each n every incident on your own??? you dont you believe in the reporters that as they have been there.... this is the case with people we cant go on reading all the hadith books... so we simply believe in the scholars!!!! hope it makes some sense
