Why Wisdom Has More Value than of Richness

 Many a times it is considered by people that they can take the poor people under pressure by showing their wealthy position, but sometimes it proves wrong when they face any wise poor person. Wisdom is not dependant on financial outlook of any person, rather it is mainly blessed by Allah Almighty and additionally experience of one's life matters. We can take following example for this.

There was a village in hilly area which was very beautiful place with respect to it's landscape as well as it's weather. People of this village were mostly poor but few of them were having good financial condition as they owned lands which the poor had to cultivate to earn their livelihood. There was an old tradition that people used to sit together at evening at a gathering place called "Dara", after completing their work and do some chit chat. Many a times such gatherings were done to resolve any dispute within two or more parties. Such gatherings were very useful tool for resolution of disputes at early stages, now which is called Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).

Generally during evening, people in few number used to sit daily for general gossip also. One day there was such a gathering at one of the "Dara" where few poor farmers were sitting. In this gathering one Land owner called "Malik Sahib" was also sitting. Now during discussion one poor person asked another poor person named Muzafar, "In which your son is now a days"?. Muzafar replied that his son is doing matriculation. Malik's son was also doing matriculation, so "Malik" got little annoyed and said, "Golden Chain is never to be worn to a donkey, it is always for the bull of the traditional race". This statement was no doubt a great set back for Muzafar, but he kept quiet.

After few months result of matriculation was announced. Muzafar's son cleared the exam in good grades, but Malik's son got failed in same exams.

Again, as per routine gathering was at "Dara" during evening and same Malik and Muzafar were sitting in it. Now it was turn of wise Muzafar. He said in the gathering, addressing to the Malik, "Malik Sahib the bull is damaging the golden chain by dragging it with the wall, I suggest this golden chain is to be removed from bull's neck and to be worn to the donkey, as donkey deserves it more now".

Now there was a pin drop silence at "Dara" as Muzafar has taken his revenge by giving a very wise statement in a respectful way. Malik was so embarrassed by listening this and regretted on his previous statement.

Moral: Wisdom has more Value than that of Richness

Why Hard work is Always Better than Begging

 Hard work is the key to success. nothing in this world is impossible for a person who targets to achieve with commitment and hard work. If we give a fried fish to a person without any of his efforts, then he will become habitual of doing nothing and aging the benefit without hard work, but if we teach him how to catch a fish, and use it as his food, then he will be more benefitted and will never try to beg in front of anyone. We can justify this statement by the following story. There was a school in a village, where children of mostly poor communities were getting their education. No uniform code was there in this school and students used to come in any of their available dresses. Education standards were reasonable but the teachers of this school were very much committed to their job in grooming their students, especially with respect to general ethics. The poor people were earning their livings hardly but were committed to educating the next generation for a better future. One ...

Where There is a Will There is a Way

Where there is a will there is always a way. If anyone puts full commitment and effort to achieve any target, destiny will help him/her to get it. It is upon the person how dedicated he/she is to the achievement of his goal. Nothing in this world is impossible if the person engaged in its fulfillment shows true spirit and d edication. We can get an example of "Where there is will there is a way" which is mentioned in succeeding paragraphs.  There was a person who was a very good journalist and always worked with zeal and zest for his newspaper. He was so dedicated to his job that he always remained the backbone of his network. He had a wish to write a book of his own but he never got time for that. His commitment to his job was always appreciated by his seniors and the owner of his newspaper. One day when he woke up to go for his duty, he tried to get out of his bed but surprisingly he was unable to move. He became totally disabled and his whole body except his brain beca...

How Dress Speaks of One's Personality

  Dress is having a great impact on the personality of a person and also decides how others will behave with him by getting an impression about him. People behave as if they get inspired by a person and his dressing plays the main role in this. One great example is as below. Shiekh Saadi was a great and well-known poet of Iran. He was very popular because of his poetry. One day he was going to the Court of King and on his way to the court, he had to stay in a house of a nobleman. He was simply dressed and was not recognized by the nobleman. The nobleman and his servant behaved with Shiekh Saadi in a very casual way, as they considered Saadi to be a poor man wearing a low-cost/ordinary dress. They didn’t show any kind of hospitality that Shiekh Saadi actually deserved Shiekh Saadi was very sad about their behavior. He went to the King’s Court. On his way back, Saadi had to again stay in the same house in which he previously stayed. Now, he wore elegant clothes. The nobleman and ...
