I am looking for some info on the raiwind tableegh markaz and madrassa. When was it built. Is is true that Gen zia ul haq donated the land?

No. That’s not true.

The original land upon which Markaz was built was a barren land with high levels of soil salinity and belonged to a farmer and unfit for produce. Due to high soil salinity the underground water was too bitter to drink!

Since being taken over as Markaz:

  1. The water has turned sweet
  2. The area is used for cultivating vegetables.


General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq (RA)
paved the original road into Raiwind and the reason being was this was Logistical hub of Pakistan Army and good access was required to defend Pakistan’s Eastern front (thus to attack Khemkharan) as this was Pakistan Army’s strategy at the time. To facilitate a Pakistan Artillery attack on India he also stationed a division near Bahawalpur which is the most likely location of an India/Pakistan all-out mechanical war, NEXT.

Since the latest Indian strategy for Pakistan is “Cold-Start” and the military value of Raiwind is greatly diminished and thus no official/Government development has taken place. Pakistan Army’s counter-strategy doesn’t put too much emphasis on Raiwind anymore.

The present well paved dual carriage way/Motor way access was built by Nawaz Shareef because he wanted quick access to his lavish 43 acre house from Lahore to Raiwind.

Both times Tableeghees have indirectly benefitted, firstly from Pakistan Army military strategy and secondly from the greed of a person.

This is what the locals get as the standard meal; Kaddoo and sometimes Daal!

It is a life time ambition of we Indians to eat that daal kaddoo or plate of flies in Raiwind markaz.

When brothers arrive here in India on PIB; most of our brother hear karguzari from across the border.

5 star for some people... but for some others, it is mujahadah (suppression of nafs) compared to what these people having at home... 8^)

Lol They did that with me, too. I had to walk around with a jubbah and the muqeem sathis because wearing shalwar khamis would have them thinking I was a Pathan.
