Right

"God", says Allama Iqbal, "is the birthright of every human being." He further states that there is fear in nature and man must be liberated from fear and thus become conscious of himself or herself since there's no mediator. ( Islam as Moral and Political Ideal ) In another* place he states, Tauheed is the manifestation of solidarity, equality and freedom.  Now think about what if each human being on this planet starts exercising this right.   * Our online course, Wisdom of Moses, explains this principle quite beautifully. you can also check this principle here  and here .

Precautions

Hmm.. Yesterday I was thinking about my new phone and the amount of time I spend with it. It reminded me of  Ishtiaq Ahmed's novels. On their second or third page there were some advises written by author for his (usually young) readers. Those were:  Make sure; 1- You have performed obligatory prayer. 2- your parents don't need your help 3- you have completed your homework.  If any of the above chore is left, kindly complete it and then start this novel.  Isn't it great?? I mean, how prudent he was. He didn't want his good intentions to be scoffed at in anyway. He never missed a single opportunity to teach us. Wow. We have grown up. We have learned many things. We need to apply them now. Wherever we are. Must not forget the tarbyah.
