"How long have you been living in Islamabad for?"
"25 years."

"What's the difference between people of Bajaur and Islamabad?"
"There's no difference in people, there are Pakistani brothers there and same here. The only difference is in the mindsets."

"What sort of difference in mindsets?"
"People of Bajaur are only inclined towards religious knowledge while in Islamabad, its the opposite--which both are dangerous to a threatening degree. But what I've learnt in last 25 years is that there needs to be a balance between both. Worldly education is necessary to earn a living while religious knowledge is necessary for hereafter."

"If you could give a message to people reading this, what would that be?"
"My message would be to travel to new places, discover new things and meet new people. This is how your mind opens to new things. Had I been living in Bajaur, I would have no exposure to worldly education nor I'd have known it's importance. This is why I made my children learn Qur'an by heart first, and now I've admitted them in school so that they prove themselves to be best for both worlds."
