With the arrival of Ramazan, the atmosphere around changs..We see many people who try to take a step towards righteousness…We see people around who tries to let go of bad deeds and instill good deeds in them……As humans we all err, and Ramazan is the perfect time to look back on our deeds, good and bad and to think where we went wrong and take a step towards righteousness……..and the challenge lies in taking with you all good you gained from Ramazan at the end of Ramazan…..not to let it go with the end of Ramazan…….Ramazan is not the only month in which Muslims should avoid bad deeds or its not the only month in which Muslims should do good deeds…..Here is just another chance from Allah SWA for us to build our faith, and strive hard to be better Muslims…….by making use of each and every minute of this holy month……….
The joy of fasting, is something that will be experienced and felt only by those who fast.It feel much more rewarding than eating a dish.It takes us above our desires and temptations and makes us realize that desires and temptations cannot rule our mind..But we base our desires and temptations with in Islamic principles and values.
And as the days of this holy month is passing by, let's strive harder to make the most of it.
Ramadan is a month in which Allah’s numerous blessings flow…hence with the beginning of Ramadan we are blessed with another chance, another chance to become a better Muslim ,a better human being…It’s the time to let go of all negative feelings ,to lend a helping hand….this is the time to strive hard to be a Muslim. To get the spiritual and physical benefit of fasting we should not only avoid food, but should not waste most time sleeping or in amusements…we should thank Allah, worship Allah, helpthose in need, avoid envy, jealousy backbiting …., learn more about Islam and share what you learn with others and it’s the time to make our hearts pure…What we should try is not to pass time, but to try to make use of each second, each minute of this blessed month worshipping Allah.
Criticism, constructive criticism is something we all need………We need to hear it ; what others have to say about us and we have to give our constructive criticism to others……..This can be defined as somewhat an obligation as a human……….The higher authority a person has the scale of this should get larger…….This is for the betterment of everyone around………This rule applies to families, offices, companies, institutions, and of course government too.
When we give constructive criticism it is an action of courage, sincerity , honesty and integrity and when we can listen to our weak points which comes in a constructive manner it shows we believe in the saying no one is perfect an there is always a lot of room for improvement…It takes courage to give constructive criticism and listen to your weak points
I would like to take an example regarding politics…….It’s almost always that the opposite cannot criticize the other party in a constructive way..This creates confusion in the mind of observers, listeners or readers……They fail to realize whom to listen to…..and this gives arise to lots of confusions and hatred……..
We should question people in authorities, we have a right to…..But those rights can be or should be exercised with in certain limits….The mutual respect should exist……. Attacking political figures personally , is it what we call freedom of speech? Using abusive language when criticizing others, cannot be called constructive criticism ..
We have a tendency to blame everything around us rather than our own selves for things that happen to us……….We cannot improve our own selves if we want the world to change before us, we have to change our own selves and our own thinking as well………..Let there be criticism……..But let it come with in limits, with in Islamic principles and values…………..
