The realistic approach
Maulana Wahiduddin Khan | The Sunday Guardian | June 28, 2020
According to religious traditions, God created the human being and settled him in Paradise. But after some time, man committed a grave error and was sent down to earth.
According to this story of creation, we lost our initial advantage and since then only the second best has been available to us. This story shows us the right direction for our lives.
Goodness in every situation
Maulana Wahiduddin Khan | The Sunday Guardian | June 20, 2020
Strange are the ways ofa believer, for there is good for him in every situation. And this is not true for anyone except for a believer. If he has an occasion of happiness, he is grateful, thus this happiness becomes good for him. If a difficulty befalls him, he keeps patience over it, and so the difficulty becomes good for him. (Sahih Muslim)
Abstaining from baseness
Maulana Wahiduddin Khan | Sunday Guardian | June 06, 2020
A believer makes mistakes but does not stoop to baseness. Mistakes are often made in sudden fits of emotion, but, when the passion cools down, one becomes conscious of the error and feels ashamed of one’s own wrongdoing.
