A Pakistani Jew in Israel | Podcast # 114 

I'm a Pakistani Christan 😌💕✝️ I live happily and no one force me

He speaks so clear Urdu. He is as Pakistani to us than anyone can ever be. It is nice he still remembers Pakistan and he carries his traditions!!!

Emmanuel I remember you, we were together in BVS and then in Government Commerce College, in 1978 1979.You were extremely friendly and fun-loving. In college days we used to discuss school days a lot specially Mrs Mistri.

میرا اس عظیم پاکستانی کو بہت بہت سلام ۔اللہ پاک اس کو صحت و تندرستی عطاء فرمائے

I am Muslim Alhamdulillah from Karachi but this man Emanuel is so patience and smiley, wishing him all the happiness, he is speaking like a true karachitte and knows most of Karachi places.🇵🇰👍✌️

Masha Allah....still remember Pakistan from bottom of heart. Feel very proud. Respect a lot to you.

I am very impressed by his soft and clear way of communication. He talks as if he is an ambassador of Pakistan to Israel. Thankyou for your good words!

I have deep respect for Mr. Emmanuel ji. It is highly impressive that Mr. Emmanuel's family still speaks Urdu and love their motherland. Hats off this living gentleman. Wish him all the best.

Respect for Brother Emanuel!

Happy to listen to this talk. It’s wonderful to know Mr. Emanuel and his love for Pakistan. God bless

One of the best Podcast Mr. Emanuel Thank you so much for your love and thank you peer talks for making it happen !

Respected Emmanuel, you are very respectable person for all of us . I belong to a Christian family. Love from Pakistan . Thank you brother for sharing this wonderful interview .

پاکستان کی محبت اب بھی واضح ہے آپ کی گفتگو میں اللہ آپ کو خوش رکھے

Emanuel, it was wonderful to see that you have so many great memories and love for Pakistan. I hope InshAllah that one day very soon you will be able to visit your country as a Pakistani citizen. May Allah bless you

He is so good in Urdu, as Jew-Pakistani, he has all the rights on his motherland, Pakistan. He has still Pakistani passport, that was heartening to see. He should get his Pakistani identity as well, that's his right.

Sad that the Pakistani Jewish heritage has been lost. It’s a big loss. It would be great if he gets the opportunity to safely return to Pakistan and live in peace.

Emanuel we wish you the best brother, I wish there was a way we all could live peacefully

My child hood buddy studied together played together may almighty protect him 🙏

I'm very glad to see Pakistani Jews and they're still calling himself Pakistan after migration 👍🇵🇰🇴🇲

In 2019 when me and my wife went to Holy Land ( Israel). I drove to Beer Sheba where Abraham used to live. I wanted to find Abraham’s well there. I saw a man standing in front of a store. I went to him and asked if he could speak English. He responded “Thora thora” . I was surprised. Once he knew I was from Pakistan, he was so glad that he paid our lunch. I sincerely forced him not to pay, but he didn’t listen. He really was very happy to meet a Pakistani in Israel because he originally was from Karachi.

مانوبھای۶ بہت خوشی ھوی۶ اپ کو اردو بولتے دیکھ کر اور خاص کر اپنی پاکستانی شناخت برقرار رکھنے پر مجھے اچھی طرح یاد ھے رنچھوڑ لا۶ین چوک پر اپ کی عبادت گاہ تھی اسرا۶ییلی مسجد کے نام سے پاکستانی دل دنیا میں جہاں کہیں بھی ھو پاکستانی ھی رھتا ھے

Having lived in the UK I realise how it feels when someone respects your religion and give you freedom to exercise your religion. I hope I can contribute to the similar in Pakistan. Salute and blessings for all our brothers and sisters out there.

اللہ ان کو نیک ھدایت دے

بہت خوشی ھوی۔ بھای اپ سے مل کر۔ اب بھی پاکستان کی یادیں ذھن میں بسی ھیں۔ وطن کا پیار اب بھی خون میں چل رھا ھے۔ شکریہ بھای

This is very unfortunate these people had to leave Pakistan. As a Pakistani I am sure one day all Pakistanis will be able to live in Pakistan practicing their religion without any hesitation. Some rulers supported these extremists for their political reasons.

It was heart warming to hear from a Jewish brother, who had spent his childhood in Karachi. I can sense the love, he still has for his birthplace. I was equally saddened to hear that the Synagogue was demolished. I just wish that we restore the roots of our nation, founded by our Quaid, where everyone is welcome to practice their faith. In shaa allah one day will come, which is not too far - where all our brothers/sisters will return home. Ameen

What a wonderful interview, so nice to listen to this conversation.

I was in Tehran in Yousafabad , we had Iranian Jews as a Neighbor. Very nice family, now all gone to USA after Iranian Revolution.

Jews have deep rooted history in Pakistan infact in Afghanistan. Well many Jews from Afghanistan migrated to Central Asia but then remigrated to Israel. I would love to see him in Pakistan if he can visit any time.

I am proud to be pakistani Muslim.. Sorry to all minorities of pakistan..who leave country due to extremists..

We are grateful for uploading this interview. His heart still throbs for Pakistan. He is so eager to visit Pakistan and meet his old fellows. Please visit Pakistan soon

Everything is good in this video. Except for what you said at 20:39, 23:20 and 23:50 about normalisation of Pak-Israel relations. What about Jinnah's ideology? What Israel is doing in Palestine, how would you defend that?

Very nice to hear such a candid talk from the Pakistani Jewish Gentleman. Such are the people that give the humanity a great hope to strive and thrive in peace. I am a Pakistani American, and have lived in NYC. I grew up in Kew Gardens area of Queens New York, where there is a good well settle Jewish Population, and a great thing about New York City is that people of all religions and races live side by side. And in New York Pakistanis live next to Orthodox Jewish Community. Not only in New York also in Chicago as well. Pakistani community in Devon Area of Chicago, is settled right next to Orthodox Jewish community, and both respect one another. My dad worked with PIA during 1990s, and PIA's office in the JFK Airport in New York was right next to Israel airlines El Al Airline office. A beautiful sight. I also had a good number of Jewish friends. When I newly arrived in New York as a teenager kid in 1990s, in my High School, there was a Jewish kid name Yosi. At first I thought he was from Pakistan, and I initiated friendship. He was actually from Israel, and he became one of my good High School friends. At University I had a good Jewish room mate named Isaac, from Kazakstan, and also another good Iranian Jewish friend. Good people are in every race and from every religion. We just have to adjust accordingly, and that is what real Islam teaches us, to respect one another, no matter what race or religion we are from. Prophet Muhammad SAW, respected and honored Jewish and Christian people and taught us to respect one another. That is real Islam. All religions teach respect, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam, etc.

Wonderful experience to have a Pakistani Jew in Israel....God bless him and his family..

he is pakistani and our brother . may god save him . our hearts beats together .

Aaj be muje moka mele tu Pakistan karachi me rehne ku tayyar hon Love and respect from karachi Wala ❤️💕

آپ پاکستانی ہیں اور ہم آپ کی دل سے قدر کرتے ہیں ایمینول بھائی

I met with emmanuel in 2018 on a visit to alquds and Israel. He is a good person and love pakistan and regular watch cricket.

He left Pakistan but the love Pakistan could leave him. We as a Pakistani citizens consider you as our fellow Pakistani. I would strongly support and demand that Pakistani officials should renew Manu's passport so that he can visit his country whenever he wants. Others non deserving people from other countries got their Pakistani passport using different ways why a Pakistani born Pakistani can't his passport? There is no place for the discrimination for whatsoever.

Nice to watch this interview! Love & Peace to you !

What a man he is... Hamara religion (Islam) peace, love aur brotherhood sekhata hai... Amanullah sb boht acha Laga apko dekh ke apki baten sun ke... Meri Dua hai ke ap aur apki family duniya mai Jahan bhi rahen hamesha Khush rahen... Boht duain ap aur ap ki family ke liay... Aur meri Dua hai ke ap Pakistan aayen kuinki yeh jitna Mera hai bakion ka hai utna hi apka hai... Lot of love from 🇵🇰 Sabse pehle Pakistan 🇵🇰🙂

His nostalgia and his continuing attachment to Pakistan draws tears.

Those who live in Pakistan must be considered Pakistanis, irrespective of their religion. Nationality defines a person, not religion. That is why all countries are called nation states, not religious states.

Nice to meet you Emanuel Matat Sir, love from 🇵🇰

It was a beautiful and informative conversation. And I must say, it's so good to see someone from Pakistan indorsing Pakistan Israel to have good relations.

Emanuel bhai Great love and respect from your own Pakistan We wish to see you in Karachi

Amazing 👏 Best feelings of a PAKISTAN'S migrated JEWS. Israel person . Who still LOVE PAKISTAN from deep inside Heart 💗

Pakistan 🇵🇰 is still in his heart ❤️ and he is Pakistani till end .some one who born and live early life in Pakistan then it’s hard to live for ever outside Pakistan

Very Noble and Soft Person Allah Bless him

Brother Emanuel Matat your interview with the Peer Talks video channel was heartening news for all of us in Pakistan. I had also previously viewed your interview with another Pakistani gentleman. Pakistanis are very fond of visiting Jerusalem for paying homage to the Holy mosque Al-Aqsa & other holy places. No doubt Israel is considered a holy land for the Pakistanis. May Allah accord you greater longevity so that you may revisit your birthplace in Pakistan at the earliest amen!

Emanuel sahib,you have won my heart thru your such a wonderful interview.You seem to be a loving person.of all humanity from my great city of Karachi.Do.plan to visit Karachi soon and be my personal guest for as long as you want.I grew up with Jewish friends who have all migrated to Israel but their fond memories still has a big space in my heart.May Allah always keep you happy and healthy.

Honest person Manu bhai, I respect

Extend his Pakistani passeport as he is a Pakistani. Why is he living abroad just on the base of being jewish 😭 We need every religion and ethnicity in Pakistan as this will be our Power

I feel great. I can't express my feelings after watching this interview. I think we should work for peace.

مجھے ان کی گفتگو سے بہت خوشی ھوٸی , میری دعاٸیں ان کے ساتھ ہیں۔۔۔۔۔دعا ھے کہ الله کریم ان سے راضی ھوجاٸے اور ان کو اپنے محبوب بندوں میں شامل فرمالے۔۔۔ آمین

Enjoyed this chat. Nice man, wish him all the best

Shalom to Emanuel. We just hope that we can create an environment where everyone lives in peace and harmony

After WW l and during WW ll British government have paid special attention towards Karachi. Since Karachi was a port city and getting importance in import of war related stuff and sending troops to battle fields in Middle East and other areas. Families all around the British India started to migrate here and settled down here. Those families were from all religions and sects like Indian Jews, Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, Parsi, Bohra, Memons and Urdu speaking from Bihar and Bengal. After partition of British India Karachi became capital of Pakistan and the life goes on without any particular differences between people of different religion and languages. Only Hindus and Sikhs were migrated to India and more Muslims around the Hindu majority India were reached here. But, it is very unfortunate that after war of 1967 between Arabs and Israel Jews were being treated with hate but there was no killings and looting. Jews were driven away from Karachi and went to Israel. It was very sad situation.

Emanuel (Mano Bhai) you are always welcome in your birth city, as people like you can make a bridge between two communities.......and happy to see little Karachi in Tel Aviv........Karachi Central.

As an indian i must say that this gentleman is a gem kind of person unlike Tariq Fateh who was abusing pakistan day in and day out on indian media channels.

this is a new thing for me that there are some Jewish people belonging to pakistan.the gentleman being interviewed in the video is Pakistani by blood and he speaks our national language so nicely like other nationals of pakistan.at this it is natural for the nationals of Pakistan to feel sympathy for him.his words are showing a great love and affection for his homeland where his father and other elders lived their lives.according to the dictates of Islamic sharia, any non Muslim can live very peacefully in an Islamic state and all the Muslim nationals are duty bound to behave with him/her very politely to respect and honour his all fundamental rights.there is no such restriction at all in this regard.further this is the fundamental belief of all the divine religions that all the human beings are the children of the same heavenly couple known as Syedna hazrat Adam (Alia Salam )and hazrat eve (razi ullah Tala anha).according to mysticism all the people are like a family of God.the stance of Pakistan is that Israel should give the sovereignty to the people of Palestine and it should also stop to commit atrocities against them,then the state of Israel will be recognized by it.he is welcomed to pakistan.people of Pakistan are very loving and big hearted and they always like to care human rights.rana Muhammad sultan Khan manj advocate Taif city Saudia.

شالوم، برادر میں ایک فرینچ پاکستانی ہوں،بہت پیار اور دعائیں آپ کے لیے آپکی فیملی اور دیگر تمام پاکستانی یہودی کے لیے ربِ ابراھیم کی رحمتیں آپ سب اور ہم پر آمین

no matter where I move , love of the motherland deepends with time....

Amazing tale - utterly fascinating! Great interview.

He is from Karachi. I also met him in Tel-Aviv when visited Masjid Al Aqsa through a friend who is his friend.

This is the best show ever. Many thanks for this upload. Very sorry Emanuel for our countrymen's behaviour towards non-Muslims! very very sorry.

مجھے بہت اچھا لگا یہ انٹرویو سن کر

He is a real honest man

Nice person. I recognize him as Pakistani. But we can't recognize Israel till palatine issue is resolved.

Just become goosebumps and become into great respect to see the interview. We still suppose, you are by Born great Pakistani. You will always be well Come in your Born place . Mr Amanuel Matat Bhai, you have such a great loving, shiney heart and Pure soul. You are extremely important for us like other countryman. May All Mighty Allah SWT bless and protect you all & ever. Ameen 🌹🌹🌹💐😍💓😍💐🌹🌹🌹

مثلہ فلسطین کا ہے کیوں کے ہم اپنے بھائی اور بہنوں کو چھوڑ نہیں سکتے چاہے پاکستان ہی کیوں نہ رہے اللہ آپ کو خوش رکھے جیسے بھی ہیں آپ

Nice to see a True Pakistani Jew . I wish he could come to Pakistan as when he need to

Watching this video was an awesome experience. Pakistan lives in the hearts of all those, who leave Pakistan behind, regardless of religion. I watched many videos/vlogs of Indian Hindu/Sikhs who left us, in 1947, returning to their ancestral homes/villages,about their experience. I wonder if one member of those Jewish families who left us, who often quietly visit their graveyard in karachi, if they return to Pakistan, Karachi or any other city, and make a vlog, about how Pakistanis receive them now. Food for thought.

Love and respect for my pakistani jews brothers

آپ کی باتیں سن کر بڑا enjoy کیا ھے اللہ تعالیٰ آ پ کو خو ش رکھے

پیارے بھائی آپ کی محبت اور آ پ کے پاکستان سے محبت کے جذبات کو خراج تحسین پیش کرتا ہوں ۔ سلامت رہیں اور اللّٰہ تعالٰی آ پکو اور آ پکی فیملی فیملی کو سلامت رکھے آمین ❤❤❤

Mother Nature base cannot change . Brother Emanuel, I am happy to meet you. Wherever you live, be happy, stay settled, stay healthy, and good news keeps coming from you. I have an idea of my own. That a Pakistani Muslim should be allowed to live near Mecca for life. But even then, he will always remember his homeland۔May God ease your difficulties

Lot of respect and love for this brother who migrated to Israel from Karachi Pakistan.

So interesting to know about this.

یہ عظیم شخص اب بھی پاکستان کی محبت اپنے دل میں رکھتا ہے ورنہ بہت سے مسلم پاکستانی دیکھے جنہوں نے کسی مغربی ملک یا بھارت کی شہریت لیتے ہی پاکستان پر بھونکنا شروع کر دیا

Really an amazing interview to watch ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Okay so now people are typing MashAllah MashAllah....agr hamara Jew bhai aaj bhi Pakistan main hota to usko alg makhlooq samjhtay hm or fatway lagaa detay.... Guys pls try to embrace other religions...make Pakistan better and beautiful 🇵🇰❤

Nice and amazing to listen very candid talks of Mannu Bahi and I wish him a very happy and prosperous life

I am Pakistani American and want to visit Israel and really wishing to meet Brother Emanuel Matat.

Amazing interview

Love and Respect for you Emanuel Matat.

Beautifull interview . Very happy interview

بہت ہی بہترین انٹرویو بہت مزا آیا سن کر 🌹❤️

As overseas Pakistani. We live side by side in UK. Trusted friends .Great nation .Educated society. We can live side by side as peaceful people.....

In my opinion there is no harm for Pakistan to have Diplomatic relations with Israel, it is strange India is our biggest enemy but we have diplomatic relations with each other we are dying after Indian movies & Indian products instead of this we have no direct confrontation with each other Israel is geographically too far from Pakistan so may be if not friendship but at least we can have diplomatic relations though we can follow a Sunnat like our Nabi(Pbuh)had Madinah pact(Misaq e Madinnah). Well this is my opinion anybody can go against it. Thanks! Naved F. Fareedi. Sacramento California. USA.

بہت خوب بہت اچھا لگا یہ سن کر میں نے پہلے کبھی نہیں سنا ۔ ہمارا تعلق سری نگر سے ھے ۔ میں نے بڑوں سے سنا ھے کہ ہمارا قبیلہ ڈار اصل میں در ھے اور یہ جو ہی تھے بعد میں مسلمان ہوئے ۔ انکی اردو بہت اچھی ھے ۔ اور یہ ابھی بھی پاکستانی کہلاتے ھیں بہت اچھا لگا ۔ ہم اب کینیڈا میں ہیں مگر پاکستان پاکستان ھے ۔ اللہ سلامت رکھے پاکستان کو ۔ 🤲🤲🤲

Peer sb, Amanuel bhai speaks so good urdu that tell him it looks like we have lost our own pakistani. Why he shifted there, as he had been born here and doing business here. Actually relations between Pakistan and Israel can never improve until liberation of Palestine. Right now Israel is killing our brothers and sisters in Palestine with cruelty which is not acceptable. Anyhow minorities in Pakistan have no problem.

Beautiful interview!.we need part 2!

Masha ALLAH ❤️ good video 👍

such a wonderful interview. I hope one day I can visit Israel and spend some time with mr.emanuel Matt

Good to know a member of the GLORIOUS GOD’ S Chosen people hailing from Pakistan.
