The Fall of Autocracy and Rise of a New Era in Bangladesh:

On August 5, 2024, Bangladesh witnessed a historic political transformation that marked the end of Sheikh Hasina’s 15-years autocratic rule and the beginning of a transitional government led by Dr. Muhammad Yunus, Nobel Laureate and long-time advocate for civil society and democratic reform.

Prelude to the Collapse:

Sheikh Hasina’s tenure, which began in 2009, was initially hailed for economic growth and infrastructural development. However, over time, her administration became increasingly authoritarian. The abolition of the caretaker government system, manipulation of elections, suppression of opposition voices, and the use of laws like the Digital Security Act to silence dissent created a climate of fear and repression.

The 2024 general election, widely criticized by international observers including the UN and US State Department, was marred by allegations of vote rigging, arbitrary arrests, and media censorship. Public frustration simmered beneath the surface, especially among students and civil society groups, who had long protested the quota system favoring descendants of freedom fighters. These protests escalated into a nationwide movement by mid-2024.

The July Revolution:

In July 2024, mass protests erupted across Bangladesh, triggered by the reinstatement of controversial quotas in government jobs. The unrest quickly evolved into a broader anti-government uprising. Reports indicated hundreds of casualties, widespread clashes with police, and the breakdown of law and order. The Bangladesh Army, led by General Waker-uz-Zaman, intervened amid growing chaos and announced the resignation of Sheikh Hasina.

The military’s move was not a coup in the traditional sense but a response to overwhelming public demand for change. Hasina reportedly fled to India, and her resignation was confirmed by the army chief. The Awami League, once dominant, was legally crippled, with many of its senior leaders facing investigations for alleged abuses during the regime.

Emergence of Dr. Muhammad Yunus:

On August 8, 2024, Dr. Muhammad Yunus was sworn in as Chief Adviser of the interim government. Known globally for his work in microfinance and poverty alleviation, Yunus had long been a critic of Hasina’s governance. His appointment symbolized a shift toward civil society-led reform and democratic restoration.

The transitional cabinet included student leaders, academics, and civil society figures. Their immediate goals were to repeal repressive laws, restore media freedom, and prepare for free and fair elections scheduled for November 2025.

Reforms and Challenges:

One of the first actions of the interim government was to lift the ban on Jamaat-e-Islami, a controversial Islamist party previously barred from elections. While this move was seen by some as a gesture of inclusivity, others feared it could embolden extremist factions.

Simultaneously, the government launched investigations into corruption and human rights abuses committed under the Awami League. Sheikh Hasina and several top officials were accused of enabling police brutality and electoral manipulation.

Despite initial optimism, the new administration faced significant challenges. Islamist groups grew bolder, and attacks on minorities and secular activists increased. Thousands of small arms looted during the July unrest reportedly armed local militias, raising concerns about national security.

International Response:

The international community responded cautiously. China, which had invested heavily in Bangladesh under Hasina, expressed support for the new government and praised Yunus’s leadership for continuing economic reforms. The United States, having previously imposed visa restrictions on those undermining democracy, welcomed the transition but urged vigilance against rising extremism.

A Nation at a Crossroads:

Bangladesh’s political landscape remains fragile. While the streets are calmer, trust in institutions is low, and the threat of terrorism looms. The upcoming elections in November 2025 will be a litmus test for the country’s democratic resilience.

Dr. Yunus’s leadership offers hope for a more inclusive and transparent governance model. However, balancing reform with stability, and ensuring that the transition does not pave the way for new forms of authoritarianism or extremism, will be critical.

The events of August 5, 2024, will be remembered not just as a regime change, but as a moment when the people of Bangladesh reclaimed their voice, a turning point that could redefine the nation’s future.

Juma Mubarak Message – A Spiritual Reflection:

On this blessed Juma Day, the hearts of believers across the world unite in remembrance, gratitude, and prayer. It is not merely the sixth day of the week, it is a divine opportunity to recharge one’s soul and seek closeness to Allah (SWT). Juma is the crown of the week, and in it lies a moment of immense spiritual reward.

A Reminder of Divine Mercy:

Allah (SWT) has chosen Friday as a day of special mercy for the Ummah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The Prophet himself said, "The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created, on it he was made to enter Paradise, and on it he was expelled from it." (Sahih Muslim). This Hadith serves as a beautiful reminder of the significance of this day—not only in history but in the rhythm of our weekly lives.

On Juma, the gates of heaven swing open wider, blessings descend in abundance, and sins are forgiven for those who sincerely seek forgiveness. It is a day when even the smallest good deed echoes in eternity.

Connection Through Prayer and the Qur’an:

The Juma prayer is one of the most powerful acts of worship. The gathering of believers in the mosque echoes the spirit of unity and brotherhood. Listening to the khutbah (sermon) refines one’s understanding of faith, and praying in congregation strengthens bonds between individuals.

Reciting Surah Al-Kahf is encouraged on this day, as it brings light and protection from trials. It’s also a time to reflect upon the wisdom within the Qur’an and let those verses guide our thoughts, choices, and ambitions.

A Call to Spiritual Renewal:

Juma invites us to pause and realign. In the hustle of worldly life, it's easy to lose sight of what truly matters. This day is a gentle nudge from our Creator, a sacred pause in the week to reconnect with values, renew intentions, and ask ourselves: Are we walking the path Allah loves?

May this Juma be filled with serenity, forgiveness, and spiritual clarity. May your prayers be accepted, your hearts be light, and your faith be strengthened. Use today as a chance to extend kindness, make du'a for those in need, and uplift your soul.

Juma Mubarak. May peace and blessings flood your home, your heart, and your entire week.

There are few moments as defining and as exhilarating in a young student’s life as passing the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) examination. And in 2025, we proudly celebrate an exceptional group of individuals who have not only endured the long hours, stressful nights, and tireless revision sessions but have emerged victorious, determined, and full of promise. This congratulatory trip is more than just an outing; it’s a celebration of dreams, effort, resilience, and achievement.

A Triumph Worth Celebrating:

To all the students who have cleared the SSC this year, heartiest congratulations! You have crossed a significant milestone in your academic journey. This achievement is a result of your hard work, discipline, and unwavering commitment. Whether you scored at the top of your class or simply managed to overcome your challenges, this success is yours to own and cherish.

This trip has been organized to honor your efforts and give you a well-deserved break, a moment to breathe, laugh, connect with friends, and reflect on all that you’ve accomplished. As you look out at the scenery, share meals with classmates, or bond over stories from the school days, remember that each smile, each laugh, is a reward for the trials you’ve overcome.

A Message of Encouragement:

Success doesn’t happen overnight, and the journey is never perfect. Perhaps there were moments you doubted yourself, moments you felt tired or overwhelmed but you pushed through. And that perseverance is what sets you apart. This trip is a reminder that life has more to offer than just textbooks and exams. It’s about experiences, relationships, exploration, and personal growth.

Let these memories serve as fuel for the next phase of your life. Whether you're heading toward college, vocational training, or exploring alternative paths, you now hold a foundation built on resilience and courage. Carry it forward, and never stop believing in your capacity to rise higher.

A Thank-You to Supporters:

Behind every successful student stands a network of support. To the parents who stood by them, offering encouragement silent strength—thank you. To the teachers who nurtured their minds and sparked their curiosity, your dedication made this moment possible. And to the friends who stayed up late quizzing each other or simply offering shoulders to lean on you are the unsung heroes of this journey.

This trip celebrates all of you. It’s a collective cheer for the community that helped every student cross that line.

Moving Forward Together:

Let this trip be more than a getaway, it’s the beginning of a new chapter. Share laughter, take photos, explore, and dream loudly. May this celebration imprint unforgettable moments in your heart. Let the memories of this day energize you for the future, reminding you that when effort meets opportunity, anything is possible.

So, congratulations again to the SSC graduates of 2025. You've earned this moment. Enjoy it fully, and may your journey ahead be as successful, joyful, and inspiring as this milestone.

What to Do If You Cannot Pass the S.S.C. Public Exam:

Failing the S.S.C. public exam can feel like the end of the world but it’s not. Life is full of highs and lows, and this moment, painful as it may be, is just one part of a much larger story. You may feel disappointed, frustrated, or even ashamed but these emotions do not define your worth or your potential. What truly matters is how you respond now.

Reflect Without Blame:

Start by giving yourself space to reflect. It’s natural to feel upset, but don’t get stuck in blame whether it's directed at yourself, teachers, or circumstances. Try to understand what went wrong. Was it lack of preparation? Health issues? Family problems? Once you identify the cause, you’ll have a better chance of addressing it next time.

Learn from the Experience:

Every failure carries a lesson. Treat this setback as feedback, not defeat. Review your exam papers, talk to your teachers, and pinpoint the areas where you struggled. Were there subjects you found harder than others? Did you face time management issues during exams? Use these insights to build a stronger strategy for your next attempt.

Consider Reappearing:

The S.S.C. exam is not a one-time opportunity. Thousands of students reappear every year and come back stronger. If you’re committed to passing, look into when you can retake the exams. This time, with more preparation and a deeper understanding of the challenges, you’ll be better positioned to succeed.

Seek Academic and Emotional Support:

Don’t go through this alone. Talk to your parents, friends, and teachers. If you need emotional support, counselors or school psychologists can help you process what you’re feeling. For academic support, consider tutoring or group studies—sometimes, the best breakthroughs happen when you're learning with others.

Explore Alternative Paths:

The S.S.C. exam is a major milestone, but it’s not the only route to success. Technical and vocational training, apprenticeships, or alternative education programs may be a better fit for your interests and strengths. Bangladesh has institutions that offer hands-on skills training in areas like IT, mechanics, tailoring, electronics, and more. These skills are in high demand and can lead to rewarding careers.

Rebuild Your Confidence:

Failing an exam doesn’t mean you’re a failure. Think of the successful people entrepreneurs, artists, writers who struggled academically but thrived later in life. Confidence comes from perseverance. Set small goals, achieve them one by one, and watch your self-belief grow again. Your future is not defined by a single exam.

Keep Your Eyes on Long-Term Goals:

Take time to reevaluate your dreams. Do you still want to continue on the same academic path, or are there new goals that excite you more? Redirecting your goals doesn’t mean giving up, it means choosing a course that aligns with who you are and what you truly want.

Final Thought:

Failing the S.S.C. exam might feel like the door has closed but there are always windows waiting to be opened. Be kind to yourself. Stay motivated. And remember: it’s not how hard you fall, it’s how strong you rise.

Graphic Features in English Language Texts:

Graphic features are the visual elements used in written texts to enhance meaning, organize information, and engage readers. These features help guide the reader’s eye, emphasize key points, and make content more accessible or visually appealing. Whether used in print or digital formats, graphic features play a crucial role in shaping a reader's understanding and interaction with a text.

Purpose and Importance:

Graphic features serve multiple functions:

- Structure and Organization: They divide texts into manageable sections, helping readers navigate content easily.

- Emphasis and Highlighting: Bold fonts or color changes can signal importance.

- Clarification: Visual aids like diagrams or tables can simplify complex information.

- Engagement: Visually rich texts tend to keep readers more engaged and interested.

Common Graphic Features:

Below are some widely used graphic elements across various types of texts:

Headings and Subheadings:

- Used to label sections of a text.

- Help readers quickly locate topics or key ideas.

- They often appear in larger or bold fonts.

Bold, Italic, and Underlined Text:

- Bold: Highlights critical terms or ideas.

- Italic: Often used for emphasis or titles.

- Underline: Frequently denotes links or important text in digital writing.

Bullet Points and Numbering:

- Breaks up long passages into easy-to-read lists.

- Used to present items, steps, or features systematically.

Tables and Charts:

- Display data clearly.

- Help with comparison, trends, and quick reference.

Images, Diagrams, and Illustrations:

- Bring abstract concepts to life.

- Used heavily in instructional material, science texts, or journalism.

Text Boxes and Sidebars:

- Provide additional info, fun facts, or summaries.

- Create space for supplementary material without disrupting the main flow.

Color and Shading:

- Directs attention to specific areas.

- Can be used for thematic or aesthetic purposes, particularly in infographics or marketing material.

Font Styles and Sizes:

- Variety in typography can convey tone, mood, or urgency.

- A change in size often signifies hierarchy or section division.

How Graphic Features Aid Comprehension:

When designed thoughtfully, graphic features:

- Make reading less overwhelming by breaking information into chunks.

- Reinforce learning through visual memory.

- Guide interpretation—e.g., a table might suggest comparing entries, while a diagram might indicate a process.

Graphic Features in Different Genres:

The use and types of graphic features vary depending on the genre:

- Academic writing: Tables, charts, and labeled headings are prominent.

- News articles: Photographs, pull quotes, and subheadings are common.

- Children’s books: Rich illustrations, playful fonts, and colorful layouts dominate.

- Web content: Hyperlinks, icons, and interactive sidebars boost user engagement.

Final Thoughts:

In today’s visually-driven world, graphic features are more than just aesthetic enhancements—they are essential tools for communication. Writers and editors use them strategically to improve readability, direct attention, and support the message. As readers become increasingly accustomed to multimodal texts, understanding graphic features becomes vital for interpreting and engaging with modern writing.

Holy Ashura: The Sacred 10th of Muharram

The Day of Ashura, observed on the 10th of Muharram, holds profound significance in the Islamic calendar. It is a day steeped in history, spirituality, and reflection, commemorated by Muslims worldwide in diverse ways. Whether through fasting, mourning, or acts of charity, Ashura serves as a powerful reminder of divine mercy, sacrifice, and the eternal struggle for justice.

Historical Significance:

Ashura derives from the Arabic word ‘Asharah’, meaning ten. It marks the tenth day of Muharram, the first month of the Islamic lunar calendar. This day is associated with several pivotal events in Islamic tradition:

- Prophet Musa (Moses) and the Israelites were saved from Pharaoh’s tyranny when Allah parted the Red Sea. - Prophet Nuh’s (Noah) Ark came to rest on Mount Judi after the great flood. - Prophet Adam was forgiven by Allah for his transgression. - Prophet Yunus (Jonah) was released from the belly of the whale. - Most notably, Imam Hussain ibn Ali, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), was martyred in the Battle of Karbala in 680 CE.

This last event, the martyrdom of Imam Hussain, is especially significant for Shia Muslims, who observe Ashura as a day of mourning and remembrance of his stand against tyranny.

Spiritual Practices and Observances:

Ashura is commemorated differently across Islamic sects:

Sunni Muslims: - Fasting on the 10th of Muharram is highly recommended. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) fasted on this day and encouraged others to do so, saying it expiates sins from the previous year. - Many also fast on the 9th or 11th to distinguish the practice from Jewish traditions. - Acts of charity, prayer, and reflection are emphasized.

Shia Muslims: - The day is marked by mourning rituals, majalis (gatherings), and recitations honoring Imam Hussain’s sacrifice. - Processions and symbolic acts such as chest-beating (matam) are performed to express grief. - The tragedy of Karbala is seen as a symbol of resistance against injustice and a call to uphold truth.

Lessons and Reflections:

Ashura is more than a historical observance—it’s a spiritual call to action. It teaches:

- Courage and sacrifice: Imam Hussain’s refusal to submit to an unjust ruler exemplifies moral integrity. - Faith in divine mercy: The deliverance of prophets on this day shows Allah’s support for the righteous. - Unity and compassion: Muslims are encouraged to help the needy, reconcile with others, and strengthen community bonds.

Recommended Acts on Ashura:

- Fast on the 9th and 10th (or 10th and 11th) of Muharram. - Increase worship: perform extra prayers, recite Qur’an, and engage in dhikr. - Give charity and feed the poor. - Reflect on the lessons of Karbala and the lives of the prophets.

Conclusion:

Ashura is a day of deep reverence, whether observed through fasting, mourning, or reflection. It connects believers to a legacy of faith, resilience, and divine justice. As the Islamic year begins with Muharram, Ashura presents an opportunity to renew intentions, seek forgiveness, and reaffirm one's commitment to the values that define a righteous life.

🎓 Raising Day of Dhaka University and Reflections from an English Department Alumnus:

Every year, July 1st resonates with deep emotion and pride across Bangladesh as the nation commemorates the Raising Day of the University of Dhaka, a day that not only marks the birth of the country’s oldest and most prestigious university, but also celebrates a legacy of academic excellence, intellectual freedom, and profound national impact.

Founded in 1921, Dhaka University was more than just an academic institution; it was a powerful force in shaping the nation's destiny. From being the intellectual cradle of the Language Movement to playing a pivotal role in the Liberation War, the university has consistently stood at the forefront of progressive thought and fearless expression.

As an ex-student of the Department of English, the Raising Day holds a bittersweet nostalgia. The corridors of the Arts Faculty, the majestic beauty of Curzon Hall, and the vibrant exchanges in the seminar rooms are etched into memory. The English Department wasn’t merely a place to dissect Shakespeare or unravel post colonial theory, it was where voices were shaped, critical thinking was honed, and identities were forged.

There’s an ineffable pride in having belonged to a department that challenged conventions, embraced diversity of thought, and demanded intellectual rigor. The professors didn't just teach literature; they cultivated a deeper understanding of the world. The friendships formed there, the endless tea-fueled debates, and the nights spent preparing for presentations that each moment added a verse to the story of self-discovery.

Raising Day is more than a ceremonial celebration. It's a reminder of where we came from, and how the values we imbibed continue to shape who we are. For alumni, it's a bridge between past and present and a rekindling of a lifelong bond with the university that nurtured their potential.

As an English Department graduate, there's an added layer of pride. Literature may not always be “practical” in the conventional sense, but it cultivates empathy, critical thought, and cultural awareness. These are tools for life not just for earning a living, but for living meaningfully.

Today, as Dhaka University continues to evolve, its heart beats with the same rhythm of courage, scholarship, and social commitment. And as an ex-student, watching new generations walk those familiar paths, there’s an overwhelming sense of gratitude for having been a part of something timeless.

🕊 Happy Raising Day, Dhaka University. Once a part of you, always a part of you.

1) The milk-seller goes door to door, But people flock to the door of the one who sells alcohol. 2) The rich beg inside mosques and temples for divine favor, While the poor beg outside them for public mercy. 3) We light candles to mark someone's death, And blow them out to celebrate a birth. 4) People are flattered when compared to a tiger or lion, Yet offended if called a mere “animal.” But aren't tigers and lions animals too? 5) Study for twenty years, and no one calls it an addiction Smoke for twenty days, and it's instantly a habit. 6) In a wedding procession, people go ahead, and the groom follows. In a funeral, the corpse leads, and people follow behind. 7) Bitter words and bitter foods both are disliked. Even insects don’t care for anything bitter. 8) Waking early is good yet people resist it Staying up late is bad yet that's what people do. 9) The rich who walk the illegal path are respected in society The poor who walk the legal path are ignored. These lines reveal a profound society’s paradoxes both thoughtful and piercing.

A mother shapes our bodies;

A father shapes our lives.

We stayed in our mother’s womb for nine months,

But sat on our father’s shoulders for twenty-five years.

Yet somehow, fathers always remain in the shadows.

A mother works in the kitchen every day, unpaid,

While a father pours his last penny into the household.

Both love us equally,

Yet somehow, the mother stands a step ahead on the stage of love,

And the father remains like a quiet backdrop.

Mother cooks our favorite meals with her own hands,

Father silently walks from shop to shop to get the ingredients.

A mother's love is visible,

A father's love is like the roots beneath the soil—

Unseen, but the very thing that keeps everything standing tall.

When we talk on the phone, we ask about our mother first,

And when we're sad, we rest our heads on her shoulder.

Meanwhile, the father stands silently by the door,

His eyes seem to say something—

But he doesn’t speak, as if he’s lost the right to do so.

The children's closet is full of colorful clothes,

Mother’s cloth's collection is rich and varied too.

But the father has only a few shirts—

He never even thinks about fulfilling his own needs.

And yet, he never complains.

The mother's jewelry box overflows with gold and silver,

The father still wears that one ring—

The one from his wedding day.

And if the mother ever lacks adornment, she says so.

But the father—he asks for nothing.

The father works tirelessly from morning till night for his family.

Sometimes he comes home exhausted from work,

But the moment he sees his child's face, the fatigue melts away.

He seeks no recognition, asks for no praise—

He only wishes for everyone to be well.

And when both parents grow old and bend beneath the weight of age,

The child says, “At least Mom can still help around the house,”

But the father says, “You’re old now. You’re no longer of use.”

Perhaps the father is the silent backbone of the family,

Not in the front, but the very reason it all stays together.

That’s why the father doesn’t step back—

He chooses not to come forward—

Because he knows, his love doesn’t need to be proven.

And yet…

Why do children leave such parents in old-age homes?

Surely the Almighty will judge.
