BBC Seeks Citizen Editors In India For Urdu Portal

By Nikhil Pahwa - Tue 16 Oct 2007 03:54 AM PST

The BBC is seeking citizen editors from India for a citizen journalism initiative for its Urdu site - BBCUrdu.com, reports Journalism.co.uk. The search for editors begins at Lucknow University, before moving on to Bhopal, Hyderabad and finally Rafat’s hometown of Aligarh.  The citizen editors will contribute to a micro-site called Your Edition. This may be more about popularizing the site than really empowering users. Remember what the BBC had done to popularize its Hindi portal?

    Sabhi patur walon ko mera salam,

    The Name Of Allah,
    the most Beneficent, the most Gracious, the most Merciful!
    **
    Rasulullah S.A.W. said, ‘Jannat lies under the feet of your mother.’
    Rasulullah S.A.W. said, ‘If you read the kalima with conviction just
    once, Jannah becomes upon you.’

    Rasulullah S.A.W. said, ‘A women who reveals her body or even wears
    tight fitting clothes wont come within 500 years of the smell of Jannah.’

    Rasulullah S.A.W. said, ‘The dust which settles on a man while he
    is out in the path of Allah; not only the fire, but the smoke of Jahannam
    is haraam for those parts of the body.

    Rasulullah S.A.W. said, ‘I only curse 3 types of people;

    1. Those people who do not look after their parents when they are in old
    age.

    2. Those people who do not take full advantage of the blessed month of
    Ramadan.
    3. Those people who don not say, ‘Salallahu -Alayhay- -Wa-Aalahay Wasallam’
    when my name is mentioned.’

    Rasulullah S.A.W said, ‘An intelligent person is one who is constantly
    thinking about and preparing for death.’

    Rasulullah S.A.W. said, ‘It is better for a man that a steel nail
    be driven through the centre of his head rather than if he touches the
    palm of a strange women.’

    In The Name Of Allah,

    the most Beneficent, the most Gracious, the most Merciful!

    apka dost,

    Quazi Imran
