Ihyaaud Deen An Effort to Revive Deen in Totality
Qaroon had the feeling of independence and said that all the wealth he has is on account of his intelligence. On seeing his wealth, the worldly-minded wished that they had treasures like him, but the knowledgeable and the ‘Ulama spoke against it and against the love of dunya. Likewise, the ‘Ulama in this time also say the same that one should get rid of the love for the dunya from one’s heart.
In many cases taking our children for umrah or holidays is a cause for destroying their tarbiyah and education, for during that entire duration of three to four weeks the child’s education is interrupted. Further, the parents do not take out time to correct the child for his/her wrongs. They do not have any values in them. What we feel is that we should give them everything that we did not get, but in doing so, we are harming them. This is not what life is all about. Rather, life is about the Qur’an, and what is the message of the Qur’an? The message is the purification of oneself. This refers to purity in aspects of our physical self like our clothing, body, etc. and purity regarding aspects related to our spiritual self, such as pride, arrogance, etc.
