Voynich Manuscript
In 1912, an antiquarian named Wilfrid Voynich purchased a collection of old books from a Jesuit college near Rome. Among them was a manuscript unlike anything the world had ever seen. Its pages were filled with strange looping script, bizarre plants that do not exist on Earth, astronomical diagrams that made little sense, and illustrations of women bathing in mysterious green pools. The book was written in an unknown language, and to this day, more than a century later, no one has been able to read it.

A Light That Shone from the Soil
Today, on the blessed occasion of Defence Day of Pakistan (6th September), I was honored to visit the shrine of my hero, the pride of Swabi and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the great son of Pakistan, Captain Colonel Sher Khan Shaheed (رحمۃ اللہ علیہ), in my own village. For me, this was a matter of immense pride. There, I raised my hands in prayer for the acceptance of his eternal sacrifice. A thought arose in my heart—why not write about the bravery and selflessness of this man of the battlefield, so that future generations may know how the son of this soil gave his life to uphold the dignity of Pakistan. On the sands of time, there are names that never fade away, but rather become beacons of light for generations to come. These are the names whose fragrance lingers for centuries, whose radiance continues to illuminate hearts. Among such names shines brightly the name of Colonel Sher Khan Shaheed (رحمۃ اللہ علیہ)—the crown of Pakistan’s forehead and the proud son of the soil of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, who offered the gift of his life and wrote golden words in the pages of history. Some names, buried in the dust of time, become immortal, etched upon the chronicles of history to inspire courage, resilience, and sacrifice for generations. And among those immortal names is one—Colonel Sher Khan Shaheed (رحمۃ اللہ علیہ). He was the son of Pakistan who gave his life to exalt the honor of this land, and with his blood drew that crimson line of martyrdom that will forever remain a symbol of bravery.
