Urdu Podcast with Wakas Mir

Hum aksar apni poori zindagi ka muqabla doosron ki zindagi ke sirf uss hissay se karte hain jo humein dikhayi deta hai. Kisi ka ghar, kisi ki gaari, kisi ki kamyabi, kisi ki aulaad. Aur phir aahista aahista apni hi nematein chhoti lagne lagti hain. Is qist mein baat hogi muqable ki uss aadat ki jo hamara sukoon, shukar aur kabhi kabhi hamari apni pehchaan bhi humse chheen leti hai.

Kab tak hum apni nakaami, apni takleef, apne guzre hue waqt aur apne faislon ka zimma doosron par daalte rahenge? Is episode mein baat hogi excuses, susti, darr, waqt zaya karne aur us sach ki jo shayad sunna mushkil ho: ek waqt ke baad aapki zindagi badalne ki zimmedari aapki apni hoti hai.

Har ghar ki privacy hoti hai, lekin kabhi kabhi “ghar ki baat ghar mein rakhein” ek aisa pressure ban jata hai jo logon ko help lene se bhi rok deta hai. Is episode mein baat karte hain privacy, family reputation, khamoshi, aur us farq ki jo ek private baat aur forced silence ke darmiyan hota hai.

Maa ke jaane ke baad zindagi rukti nahi. Duniya waise hi chalti rehti hai, log hanste hain, kaam hota hai, Eid aati hai, ghar mein mehmaan bhi aate hain. Lekin aapke andar ek jagah hamesha ke liye khaali ho jaati hai. Woh phone jo kabhi irritate karta tha, woh awaaz jo roz sunai deti thi, aur woh ek sawaal, “Beta, khana kha liya?” ek din duniya ki sabse qeemti yaad ban jaata hai. Aaj baat karte ha...

Har masla aapko solve nahi karna, har rishta aapko bachana nahi, aur har bojh aapko apne kandhon par nahi uthana. Madad karna achi baat hai, lekin kab samajhna chahiye ke ye zimmedari ab aapki nahi? Aaj isi baat par guftagu karte hain.

“Beti hui hai.” Sirf itni si khabar, lekin hamare culture ke kuch gharon mein mubarakbaad se pehle sawaal aa jaata hai: “Beta nahi hua?” Aur agar doosri beti ho jaye, toh maa ko mashware, doctors aur treatments bataye jaane lagte hain. Lekin jab faisla Allah ka hai, toh beti ki paidaish par afsos kis baat ka? Is episode mein baat us soch ki jo ek maa ko takleef deti hai aur ek beti ke dil mein bac...

Ek hi ghar mein badhe hue. Ek hi maa baap, ek hi bachpan, aur hazaaron yaadein. Phir aisa kya hota hai ke woh bhai behen jo kabhi ek doosre ke baghair nahi rehte thay, badhe ho kar ajnabi ban jaate hain? Is episode mein baat sibling rivalry, maa baap ke comparison, bachpan ki chhupi hui takleef aur un zakhmon ki jo kabhi kabhi tees saal baad bhi rishton mein zinda rehte hain. Kyun ke kabhi ladai a...

Talaq kabhi sirf do logon ki judai nahi hoti. Iske saath yaadein, bachay, families, izzat aur bohat se adhoore sawal bhi jude hote hain. Islam ne talaq ki ijazat di hai, lekin talaq ke baad nafrat, badla, zaleel karna aur ek doosre ki zindagi mushkil banana nahi sikhaya. Is episode mein hum baat karenge ke jab nikah khatam ho jaye, to ek doosre ke huqooq, izzat aur boundaries kaise qaim rakhi jaye...

Kabhi kabhi rishtay kisi larai ki wajah se khatam nahi hote. Woh sirf is liye khatam ho jaate hain kyun ke dono taraf ek hi soch hoti hai:“Usay meri yaad hai toh woh khud phone kare.”Aur phir ek din phone karne ke liye insaan hota hai... magar doosri taraf jawab dene wala nahi hota.

Sometimes we cry over doors that closed. People who left. Plans that failed. Things we prayed for but never received. But what if some of those disappointments were not punishments? What if they were protection? In this episode, we reflect on the possibility that not every loss is truly a loss, and that sometimes life removes what we would never have had the strength to leave ourselves.

Some battles are not worth carrying. Some words do not deserve a reply. Some people do not deserve permanent space in your mind. In this episode, we talk about darguzar — the strength to let go without becoming weak, to forgive without forgetting your self-respect, and to protect your peace without carrying bitterness.

One of the hardest questions in family life is this: Should two people stay together for the sake of the children, even when the marriage has become toxic? There is no simple answer. Sometimes a marriage can be repaired. Sometimes it needs serious intervention. And sometimes staying together can expose children to years of fear, conflict, humiliation, and emotional instability. In this episode, we...

A lot of people spend years trying to become acceptable to everyone around them. They change the way they speak, hide parts of their personality, silence their opinions, and constantly compare themselves to others. Not because they are weak, but because somewhere along the way, they learned that being themselves was not enough. In this episode, we talk about shame, self-confidence, comparison, and...

Most parents want the best for their children. But sometimes, love can slowly turn into control. Concern can become pressure. Discipline can become fear. And a child who is constantly corrected, compared, shouted at, or emotionally controlled may grow up learning how to survive a home, instead of feeling safe in it. In this episode, we talk about toxic parenting patterns, how they can affect child...

We forgive those who disappointed us, walked away from us, betrayed our trust, or failed to value us. With time, we somehow learn to say, “It’s okay. I’ve let it go.”But there is one person many of us struggle to forgive. Ourselves. In this episode, we reflect on the mistakes, decisions, regrets, and memories that may belong to the past, but somehow continue to live inside us. Because sometimes he...

Is episode mein hum mashhoor scholar Maulana Saleem Alvi ke saath ek aham aur har daur ke insaan se mutaliq mauzu par guftagu karenge: "Deen aur Dunya ko saath le kar kaise chala ja sakta hai?" Aaj ke masroof aur challenge bhare daur mein bohat se log is sawal ka jawab dhoond rahe hain ke career, business, family aur dunya ki zimmedariyon ke darmiyan apne deen ko mazboot kaise rakha jaye. Kya kamy...

Let's talk about what we can do in a time when everything seems to go downhill.

Iss episode mein baat hogi sharpasand logon ki.

In this episode I talk about what destroys most of our relationships... Anger!

In this episode I talk about the very fact that our children are a gift and an amanah from the Almighty.

In this episode I talk about how we should be more realistic towards life and experiences that make us live with a totally unrealistic mindset.

In this powerful episode of Urdu Podcast, I speak directly to parents—especially of sons—about the urgency of being present, vocal, and wise in a time when digital voices compete for your child’s attention. If you don’t speak to your son, someone else will—and they may not care about his values, his soul, or his future. Learn practical, gentle ways to connect with your son without being forceful....

In this episode, I open up a deeply personal and important conversation about emotional boundaries in parenting. Why do some parents turn their children into emotional confidants? What happens when we burden young hearts with adult pain? And how can we create homes where children feel safe, not responsible? A gentle yet powerful reminder to let children be children — and to heal our own wounds wit...
