Topic: Youm-e-Takbeer

Description: Today is the 28th of May, the day when Pakistan successfully conducted five nuclear tests in Chaghi, Balochistan back in 1998. It was a historical day because Pakistan was the first Islamic state to become a nuclear power. This day is known as Youm-e-Takbeer because every Pakistani had happily cried out “Allah-u-Akbar” (God is great!) that day.

Now, what do people in Pakistan use this term for? What were they so proud about then, and why did they say those words?
