Rashid Minhas was a young air force pilot and patriot. he embraced shahadat at the age of 20 only. he was gifted with Nishan e Hader. if he had a long life he might could have could not come up with such prestige which he got after shahadat. Long life of a man without any worthwhile deeds is useless. it resembles animal s life. one is known by his deeds, urge and nature.Hence,instead of longing for a long life, marked by dullness, insipidity one should have determined life. one should aim at doing something concrete and worthy in life that one may have short life.
