This is my Biryani which I made for the holy night of Shab e baraat..............  I was very busy from evening in preparing biryani ......... distribution to neighbours and to less fortunate people was a big task for me...... following by Asar prayer .....prayer for ancestor and  Maghrib prayer  I was  a bit tensed......... as I was wondering whether I could finish 3 yasins............. By the grace  Almighty finished everything on time........... and had a satisfying night prayer too...............
