I accidently discovered this building recently on my way back home from work. Lets see if readers here know this building or can guess what it is and exactly where.
Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

That’s definitely the Sheikh Zayed Islamic Center .. and judging by the greenery around it, my bet is this one’s in Lahore.
This building is in Lahore by the Canal. Initially it was built as a pleasure palace by the Shaikhs and was dubbed as ‘Dubai Palace’. Later on under protest it was passed on to the Punjab University New Campus. A nice picture though.
Thats of course the Islamic center at Punjab University, Lahore. I studied in PU for about year… know the place really well.
Sh Zayed Center for Islamic Studies in Karachi University, adjacent Karachi University residential area.
Its a A-block, model town madarassa.
