Selfishness,
Greed, Apathy
And
Corruption:
To
Solve The Morally-Bankrupt
Modern
World's Problems, We Need
Cultural
And Spiritual
Transformation!
(M.
Javed Naseem)
=====================================
=====================================
"Corruption
does appear on land and sea
because of
(the evil) which men's hands have
done, that He may
make them taste a part of
that which they have done,
in order
that they may return."
(al-Quran
30:41)
Modern
man depends on science and technology for all kinds of advancement,
development and improvement. He is talking about settling on the Mars
and Moon but is unable to live on his planet Earth with peace,
compassion, equality and justice. Despite all scientific and
high-tech advancement, he is unable to tame himself to live by some
code of ethics and morals. He is materially rich but morally
bankrupt! And this bankruptcy is evident from his selfishness, greed,
apathy and corruption. Unless man adopts righteousness, he'll keep
suffering.
The
champions of human rights are trampling the rights of the weaker
nations; the champions of freedom and liberty are enslaving the
non-white human beings! All human rights, all freedom and all liberty
is for the selected few who are collaborating in the crimes against
humanity because they want the total control of the world -- with its
inhabitants, its wealth and its natural resources. They want to rule
the Kingdom of Earth! But they should remember that the unjust rulers
are the fuel of Hellfire.
A
wise ruler uses his power to enforce justice and peace. He knows that
one day he would be standing in front of his Creator answering
questions. The Merciful Creator had already commanded him to keep the
balance between this world and the Hereafter.
"But
seek the abode of the Hereafter in that
which Allah
has given you and neglect not
your portion of
the world, and be kind
even as Allah has been kind
to you,
and seek not corruption in the earth!
Lo!
Allah loves not corrupters."
(al-Quran
28:77)
The
hypocrisy of those so-called champions of humanity is very much
visible in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, Afghanistan and Yemen.
They are the 'Traders of Death' and they bring about bloodshed and
destruction. And they are doing all the killing, bloodshed and
destruction of town after town, in the name of peace! They wage
illegal and immoral wars to 'make peace'. Millions of innocent humans
(including children and women) have lost their lives but the greedy
war-mongers don't feel like stopping anytime soon. The irony is that
they claim to be the peace-makers and deal-makers of the world. No
country on earth is permitted to function without their consent and
pleasure. But they didn't learn their lesson from the history! Nimrod
and Pharaohs were the biggest tyrants mankind ever saw. What happened
to them?
The
best system of ruling people was guidelined by the Creator of
mankind. Scriptures and holy books have outlined the Bill of Rights;
and the Ten Commandments have etched in stone what a man should do
and what he should not. Those tenets form the code of conduct for
man. Allah wants man to become righteous and just -- a man who
promotes piety and forbids evil so that a peaceful culture springs
out from the base of social justice. The Quran is the last Divine
Revelation and it guides Muslims of the world to the right path; to
the right system and to the right solution of their problems. It
enjoins a social system based on justice and fear of God so that no
man crosses the line.
A
Muslim barrister from South Asia, who was educated in Britain at the
end of the 19th century and had observed both Capitalism and
Communism, was convinced that the social system promoted by Islam
(the Quran) was the most suitable for mankind as it was close to
Nature. He was Mohammad Ali Jinnah, the founding father of a country
called Pakistan that was found in the name of Islam. M.A. Jinnah had
made it very clear how a Muslim-majority country should be governed.
He said:
***********************************
“The
adoption of Western economic theory
and
practice will not help us in achieving our
goal
of creating a happy and contented people.
We
must work our destiny in our own way
and
present to the world an economic system
based
on the true Islamic concept of equality
of
mankind and social justice”
--
Mohammad Ali Jinnah
(Founding
Father of Pakistan)
***********************************
The
West gave the world the corrupt Capitalism, while its competitor, the
Communism, could not eliminate corruption from the society or the
system either. The both failed. But Capitalism got the upper hand
because of unlimited wealth that could buy anybody or anything. That
corrupt system eventually produced psychopaths, tyrants and monsters
who took control of the world. What those evil-minded sub-human
maniacs have forgotten is that their days are numbered. They cannot
live forever, nor can they control the entire world forever. There is
a Supreme Power above, that created them and this Earth. That Power
is called Allah or God, and He is watching, giving them ample time to
correct their ways and stop mischief (and corruption) in the world.
At the end, the justice will be delivered.
Man
claims to have education of the world but he misses the real
education -- the history of mankind with its lessons narrated in the
Scriptures. Only that education can enlighten the man of today and
can give him motivation to solve the problems of the world. The Word
of God is full of guidance, blessing and mercy. It also offers cure
for man's spiritual ailments and his moral bankruptsy. Only the Word
of God can help man in triggering the spiritual and cultural
transformation. Then he'll be able to solve the problems of the
world. Allah promises us in the Quran:
"Those
who believe (in the Quran), and those
who follow
the Jewish (scriptures), and the
Christians and
the Sabians -- any who
believe in Allah and the
Last Day, and work
righteousness, shall have their
reward with
their Lord; on them shall be no fear,
nor shall they grieve."
(al-Quran
2:62)
There
is a very simple principle for the rulers and reformers: If you
embark on a mission to correct and change others, you better correct
and change yourself first! When you follow the path of righteousness,
you are justified to promote righteousness. It is the righteousness
that builds and strengthens your character; and makes you a great
person. When you practice righteousness, your Creator loves that too.
It helps you establish a spiritual connection with your Creator --
the Lord Almighty. Now, the million-dollar question is: What is
righteousness? Here is what our Creator -- Almighty Allah -- says
about it:
"It
is not righteousness that you turn your faces
towards East
or West; but righteousness is to
believe in Allah and the
Last Day, and the Angels,
and the Books, and the Messengers;
to spend
of your substance, out of love for Him, for
your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the
wayfarer,
for those who ask, and for the ransom
of slaves; to
be steadfast in prayer, and practice
regular charity; to fulfill
the contracts which you
have made; and to be firm and
patient, in pain
(or suffering) and adversity, and throughout
all periods of panic. Such are the people
of
truth, the Allah-fearing."
(al-Quran
2:177)
Character
is everything! A man with good character can lead the community to
the right path so that people of all faiths and colors could live
their lives harmoniously in the same frame of work. The promoters of
New World Order or One World Govt. are selfish, dishonest, corrupt
and cruel. They have no consideration for humanity. Therefore, they
cannot deliver. They are not fit to rule the nations and they should
not be allowed to do that -- for the sake of peace!
