Bismillah.
Good day everyone!
I’ve heard many times that life is unfair. Affluent people enjoy
life’s goodness and treasures while paupers suffer every hour of their days. I
say, you must read the next paragraph.
Once, a girl was walking her way home under the very warm
sun. While taking her steps slowly and carefully she thought of how abasing the
situations in her life have been. Her family’s income has lowered into half.
Now she is unable to enjoy quality education, ideal meals, educational travels,
more decent clothes, excessive allowance, outdoor bonding with the family, and other
things ample money can buy. Her life has tremendously changed. The heart within
her is longing for an answer as to why she needs to undergo such deplorable change
when a familiar junk-collecting man passed by her. She saw this man heartily
smiling well because he has filled his sack with glass bottles he collected from
many doors. She remembers eating chicken with vegetables and fruits when this man
barely ingests any. She is reminded of those times her father has made her a
cup of milk while her mother prepares for her sandwiches. This man, walking
towards her, is the same man who knocks every single day to her and her neighbor’s
door asking for used glass bottles to acquire income. This is the same man who is forced to finance
the vices of his father and mother after getting reprimanded for refusing. This
struck the girl well. She must be a madwoman for thinking that life has been
unfair to her. She then realized that the state she is in actually rendered her
strength and appreciation of the little things she used to disregard. The
beauty of life is not measured by the things we have but can be appreciated through
the things we lost or do not have. Life is most beautiful in its simplest just
like how a lady and lad can be lovable without make-up.
Readers, we might have been blessed with quite a lot but
just to keep our Muslim feet on the ground, there’s so much more on Earth than
what we possess meaning we do not own 99.999999999999999% of Earth more so the
universe. And that the rich is blessed so they may help the poor while the poor
exists so the rich may maintain their genuine kindness, humility, and good
heartedness. Of course there are more reasons as to why the wealthy and the not
so moneyed exist. The bottom line is that the humanity is created to praise The
One True God and to have faith on God because through Him and His name do
hearts find peace despite the trials of the life and the grave. Wa la hawla wa
la quwatta illabillah.
