Dear Soul!Thanks for all your coopreration --- I am forwarding your comments to Dr. Ahmad Safi (son of Ibne Safi)-I again  like to quote Mr. Ahmad Safi (son of Ibne Safi) here:  "At least we can admit that this way of copying books on the net is wrong, even if it is for a good cause. We cannot hurt one person and snatch his belongings and give them to someone else because they were in need. There are always means to ends and some other legal way could be adopted." I am glad that at least sensible people like you have started thinking about the copyright infringement issue ---Ahmad Safi so rightly pointed out that the way we have adopted is wrong even if it is being done for the sake of good cause ----  I hope that you have read my article QALAM KA QARZ available at www.ibnesafi.info ----  Furthermore, Ahmad Safi also stated:   Insha Allah pretty soon there is a company which legally want to distribute the electronic versions of these books and have asked us to get into a contract with them. They want to do it despite the fact that almost all the books are available freely. They want to do it to show people that there are Pakistanis who abide by law and even though it may not be a very profitable business proposition, they are moving forward with it. We are considering to support them for the sake of all writers who get short changed by piracy."

All Ibne Safi Lovers!Dr. Ahmad Safi (son of Ibne SAfi) through an e-mail on July 5, 2009, has requested me to remove all novels of Ibne Safi which I have placed at esnips ----  The letter is self-explanatory in which Dr. Ahmad has rightly called my act  a copyright infringement which I did accept and immediately removed all novels from my esnips folder ----  I request to all other friends to read the said letter and take the right decision --- Dr. Ahmad writes: “ So as a first thing, I would request you to  Volantarily remove the pdf versions or links to those, from your web pages and uphold the rights of your favourite author whose main aim was to propagate the Respect of Law (Qanoon ka Ehtraam.)” -- I have known and admired you for your love and respect for Ibne Safi and his novels. I just have to tell you that these works are copyright materials and copying them in any form print/electronic is illegal. M/s Asrar Publications is actively publishing these novels and all rights are reserved. If you would not stand side by side with me and the Ibne Safi family which includes your dear friend Muneer, then we would be left to think that Ibne Safi Fans are fans for the sake of reading his works but not learning from it. I hope you would consider the point of view of the copyright holders and would be amongst the protectors of the rights not violators of the same. Hope to see a positive response from you”. Please see De.
