Real intelligence! 

حسد دراصل اللہ کی تقسیم (عدل)پر اعتراض ہے۔ اس پر ناخوشی اور ناشکری کا اظہار ہے۔
Envy is to be discontent with Allah’s distribution (ADL).

This sentence changed my whole life. It became quite evident to me that I had never thought of envy like this. To me it was unthinkable to have ever been envious of something another person had but I realised I had been quite ungrateful of what I had many a times. 

I had no idea what Allah’s distribution was. When I sought , I found His will, His distribution every where.

To question what He has given or not given and to compare with others is the greatest folly one can venture into. 
We are not perfect, we were never meant to be perfect in this world. 

There is this thirst for fulfilment and completion which is not to be quenched here.

To question divine justice is just like holding a glass to an ocean then expecting the ocean to fit into it.

Foolish ?

Quite! 

All of us seek justice! 
It is in us!
It is this impossibility of complete justice in this world that actually validates and necessitates the day of judgment.

What justice can we provide to those born blind? 

Whatever we accomplish in science, we cannot take away the truth that they were born different !

It can be debated that such people are more gifted and special and that can be true too!

But is it fair?

Is it equal?

Should everything be equal ?

No !

For if justice is to prevail then equality must go!

We are not perfect!

No , we are not perfect as we are !

And yes! It is not required of us to be perfect in an imperfect world. 

To be complete in an incomplete world!

Only our struggle matters!

Our effort matters!

In which way did we struggle. To what end?!

And our surrender!

Our wilful surrender to Allah’s distribution and His will!

رب کی تقسیم پر راضی رہنا سب سے بڑی  عقلمندی ہے!

#Havefaith!
#Surrender!

ON RESPONSIBILITY!

The seemingly inconsequential fly buzzed around incessantly from one nose to another. Some were totally oblivious to its existence, Some bore its buzzing with a somewhat irritated expression while others shooed it away with a wave of their hand. Eventually,  it dived into a teacup. All hell broke loose. “Who let the fly in?”, “What a mess”, “Such a crappy building”, “Who left the window open?” “Who opened the window?”, “Why can’t you put a lid on your cup?”, “Why don’t we have fly screens for these doors and windows?”, “Why don’t we have a fly repellent?” A guy sitting on the far end folded his magazine and squatted the fly as soon as it landed on his desktop. That was ‘The End’ for the fly. (inspired from a real-life scene) We can roughly categorise the two kinds of behaviours/personalities described in the scenario above as ‘reactive’ and ‘proactive’. Out of these two our people fall into the ‘reactive’ category. A nation of reactive individuals who are not willing to...

The truth unveiled!

VALENTINE’S DAY The truth unveiled 'Every deen has an innate character. The character of Islam is modesty.' Al Muwatta 47.9 HOW IT STARTED: Like most Christian festivals, the origin of Valentine’s Day also lies in the pagan Rome. In ancient Rome young men and women used to celebrate this festival where the women would write love letters and throw them in a huge pot. Then the men would choose their partners through lottery and would court (relationship before marriage) the girl whose letter came in their hands. (Webster’s family encyclopedia). According to the encyclopedia this festival has no direct or indirect link to the life of Saint Valentine (269 A.D). To make Christianity more popular and acceptable among the pagan masses, the Christian clergy added this festival to Christianity by celebrating this day as Saint Valentine’s Day. The myths regarding Saint Valentine giving his life for the sake of love and others are all false. WHERE DO WE ST...
