“Intellectual modesty is humility as to what I know; intellectual humility is modesty as to what I do not know” Tariq Ramadan

Recognition, regard and sincere consideration towards the work and knowledge of one’s elders and predecessors

Knowledge that  it’s never us it’s only Allah.

Knowledge that power needs to be delegated and shared or else is taken away.

Knowledge that the power one has is a responsibility and a trust.

Tolerance for those who lack understanding.

Understanding that it’s not necessary to walk the same pace but it’s necessary to walk together.

The tact to make things simple for others.

Patience to slow down and let others catch up.

Sense to not belittle other perspectives or other people’s hard work as respect is vital.

Patience to listen again to what one already knows with interest and attention.

Realisation that real knowledge does not come by searching for it, it is a consequence of a faithful patience and experience.

Knowledge that we will never know enough and to wait for knowledge to come at the right moment in the right place.
( khizar & Moses)

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...
