Leaders Vs. Nation

By -
"DHA college teacher 'requests' for Al-Karam suit to clear the student in practical exam." I am not joking or exaggerating. Its real news. And it made me thought, why do you expect the politicians to be fair and just if we-ourselves are corrupt.- as student, teacher, businessmen, servants, jobians. Everybody is playing this corruption game according to their level, status and degree of access to the corruption.  These leaders are our mirror image. Displaying our characteristics, our cowardliness, reluctance, inaction. We lull ourselves back to slumber by blaming others of our shortcomings and lack of faith, dignity even morality. I read about a should-syndrome in Ashfaq Ahmed's Zawya II. He says: "Should Syndrome is a dangerous illness which spreads quickly. In it, people unload their responsibilities on others and free themselves by saying 'they/him/her should do it'. It is destructive for a nation. This should phrase doesn't have any tense and so it remains dangling in the air, never completed by anyone. It becomes a vicious cycle where everybody keeps on unloading their duties onto others. And nobody works. Because there is no time specified for should." doesn't it sound like so us? Shameful!

"verily, everyone of you is a guardian over other, and you all will be questioned about whom you guard. than king is guardian over his kingdom, he'll be questioned about it. and man is a guardian for his household, he'll be questioned about it and woman is guardian over her man and offspring and she'll be questioned about them and slave is guardian over his lord's estate and he'll be questioned about it. Verily you all are guardians and you all will be question about whom you guard." (Fazayly Amaal)

    Really? Al-Karam suit? That is shameful. Do you have a link to the original article?

by Dr. Mahmoud Esmail Sieny " The answer to an ill-deed is an ill-deed or the like thereof. But whosoever pardoneth and amendeth his reward is with Allaah. Surely, He does not love wrong doers." (Al Quran 42:40) History tells us that when Sultan Salahuddin regained Jerusalem from the invading and ruthless Crusaders, who had ninety years earlier massacred and savagely treated its Muslim and Jewish inhabitants, he met a group of Latin Christian women who addressed him, "O Sultan! You see that we are leaving. Among us are mothers, wives, daughters or sisters to the soldiers in captivity with you. These men are our support in life, and if we lose them we will lose everything. But if you leave them for our sake, you will be giving us back our lives." At this our hero Salahuddin smiled and he gave orders that the sons and husbands of those women were to be set free. He went even further and gave money to the women whose supporters were killed in the battle. An irate Frenc

REASON OF EXISTENCE

It so happens that we enter a room for a purpose but the moment we enter, we forget why we came altogether. Then in this brief period our attention diverts to some other task and we get engross in it. And after considerable time we suddenly remember the real task and we have a chance to complete it. The world is like that room, we entered in it with a purpose but we got distracted. before our time comes, we must do something about it or else, we'll be in " khasara" greatest loss after which there is no going back. So what we need to do is be attentive all the time. Keep your purpose in your mind. I know that this is difficult. Allah said so himself that life of a momin is difficult. there's a hadis, I cant remember the exact words the excerpt is: "The path to heaven is filled with thorns and the way to hell is laden with flowers." And that: " The world for a believer is like a prison" So now we are clear about our life and our destiny. both are

Ideals

I recently had a chance to come to know one of the great writers of Pakistan, Ibne Safi. Ibne Safi He has an ability to engage his reader and take him to places in his mind and than when reader finishes the novel, he has the urge to create exact environment in real. His protagonist obeys, respect the law and makes those around him to do so too. I think about how many minds he revolutionized. How much he changed the society. I am sure he put large amount of effort in salvaging the society and help people to take it to this far. His writings are timeless. They can be used by every individual of any age. He rightly read his times and the way he changed the track of thought of especially young minds is marvellous. His writing proves that he was of the men who don't complaint about circumstances rather stand up and remove the filth silently and efficiently. Their efforts speak of their ache and love for their society, their people.  for more information on Ibne Safi, visit
