Muslims and Misery

Muhabat ka janooN baqi nahi hay
MuslmaanooN maiN khoN baqi nahi hay
safaiN kaj, dil preshaN, sajda bay-zoq
keh jazb-e-androoN baqi nahi hay

The above poetry of Illama Iqbals tells us the reason of fall of Muslims. Today we are good for nothing, a sorry nation who can be considered as sloganizers.

Practicalism, the key to success for this and other world is the forbidden element in Islamic world, Muslims like to hear the legendary stories of their ancestors, they feel proud, but none of them tries to be like them or try to get the MEAN of the story.

Muslims are proud of their History which nodoubt was great, but what good that history can bring to our current status? I am not saying that we should not study about our Heros. but will studying them alone will help us to improve our current status of Life?

By saying that My father was a king, will not earn me respect. I have to fight for my respect and honour and even before that for my freedom. The fact is that Muslims don’t even know the art of fighting!!! They lack virtues , which convert a common man into a Legendary hero.

Iam sorry i sad lack, i should have said Locked the Book of virutes in a valuable cloth and kept it on the place where no hand can reach for it.

Iam quoting Iqbal again:

**Sabaq phir paRh sadaqat ka, adalat ka, shujaat ka **
liya jaye ga kaam ju say duniya key imammat ka

we lack all of the undelined stuff, thats y Leadership of the world has been taken from us. thats y anyone can insult our Prophet (PBUH). we brought this shame to our Prophet (PBUH) who taught us the above lessons which we don’t consider in todays life.

It is Law of nature, a nation posses the above mentioned qualities will get the leadership, this is the promise of Allah and none of his promise is false.

In the World of Islam, from Morocco till Pakistan, we dont see the truth, we the Justice, we don’t see the courage. and then we wonder why are we MUSLIMS, are not the leader of the world, 1.7 million muslims has been killed in last 4/5 years and no one even seems to be bother. and why anyone should be bothered about it!!! Muslims ( for whom quran says the best nation from the people) is leading a life of animal, infact there are mnay NGOs for the right of animal protections.

Now these qualities will not emerge in one night, we need to relese the book from its cover, we need to start implementing the book in OUR daily life, we need to stand for ourselves and for those who cannot stand for themselves. we need to over come our egos, we need to educate our minds, we need to train our souls…I believe we don’t have much time, but at we do have some time left, we need to to convert from SUNNI, SHIA and what ever we are from Islam. otherwise as Iqbal said

hay aye’aaN You’rash-e-Tataar kay afsanay say
pasbaaN mil gay ka’abay ko sanam khanay say.

It is evident from the same hisotry we are proud of that, there was a time when the rivers were red and land was full of corpse of muslims killed by tataari and later tataaries were given the leadership. The process of replacement has started, muslims of are being killed and the way world politics is moving it seems like killing a muslim will not be a crime in near future.

Islam or Allah don’t need us, we on the other hand stand no chance without Islam.

Re: Muslims and Misery

Brother this path is very difficult... bring us another message or change this one. (did that sound familiar from somewhere?)

People will go out in the streets, burn flags and effigies, break a few windows, burn a few KFCs, and hail death to Israel and America, and yet no one will actually undertake community work to help the needy, educate children, improve their own life (all this is Zakaat btw) ...

A solution to be pursued is long-term and we may not see the result in our lifetime, but perhaps our future generations may reap the rewards ... and perhaps zaalika yaumal khurooj

Re: Muslims and Misery

Somebody somewhere told me nothing is easy! every task requires effort,

we plant a tree and somebody else benefited. we need to do our part, for our on good, very own good ( what a selfish statement) we may not be benefited but maybe our next generations will. so we have to start from some where, then y not from ourselves first then our family, then neighbours...

Not an easy job i agree, not at all, but living the way we are living is not easy as well.

Re: Muslims and Misery


Then get your ass up and go help someone tonight... learn something new tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after that, and share with us. I'll do the same. And I hope whoever reads this thread does the same as well... let's make it a habit.

Re: Muslims and Misery

JazakAllah..... I will try my best to follow the real teaching of islam and i hope all the muslims in here can pass this msg and learn something out of it..

Re: Muslims and Misery

well one of the task was memorizing the poetry of Iqbal, second was typing this message and third was posting it here. :D

now i think, its time for me to fix my self first, then start working on others. because if i don't do what i preach then it is not worth it. and u also don't have to carry some thing heavy on ur back and look for needy, start it from urself and then family and then neighbours and please it is not only helping them by some money or one or two of their daily chores.

it is bringing them to the stage where they can trust themselves to speak the truth which will lead to a JUST naturte and eventually a courage will emerge.
