Surprised no one else is talking about him. :
Media has all the time to talk about the Kardashian's new clothing, but can't even give heroes like him a shoutout.
Then again, I don't think Eidi would want all the fame. |
He was Pakistani a Muslim. The only way he would make the mainstream news is by blowing something up.
I agree with you though, he probably didn't want fame. I've seen celebraties went to visit him. Governments offered him money, but he didn't take their money or use the celebrities to get more money.
Mainstream media really should pick this up. What an incredible man and a true inspiration. It would be great to see such a positive story about a muslim which would help give some balance which I think we need to be honest. It's hard to think positively about muslims nowdays.

Some say 92 and some 88
Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also
He did get recognition in Pakistan at least a long time ago and is very famous since any one who needs help, eidi ambulances are there and for orphans eidi orphanages were there. Everyone knew about him in every corner of the country

If people stopped watching and caring about what those twats did then the media would stop showing them so much, sadly people love to watch them for some reason which has thankfully never got to me.
Agree though, when I hear "News" talking about famous people who are only famous because the news talks about them, I just turn off.
Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Oh. So it's not definite.

He was born in pre Pakistan India so it would have been difficult to truly know the age due to no system for birth certification so even these are estimates at best

I feel horrible for agreeing with you.
Hopefully Muslims go through a reformation like Christians. I don't like seeing the kind ones get hate due to the other nutjobs.

I had no idea that India used to have a system like that. I feel bad that no one knows he's actual age.
