Civilization

(Muhammad Usman Habib, Sadiqabad)

Islamic society represents the complete civilization of the world. It gives guide ness about all the aspects of life. In other words, we can say that Islamic society or civilization is the ideal society or civilization for the world. It said not only by me but all the intellectuals, scholars, preachers, thinkers and writers had agreed on it. That’s why, in so many years back, an American writer; Michel H. Hearty gives no. 1 rank to the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) in his book The Great Hundred. In his book, he tells us about the hundred greatest personalities of the World. He gives no. 1 rank to the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) because he agreed that Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W.W) introduced one of the greatest religions of the world. The teachings of that religion are also the great. So, Islamic civilization is the complete code of conduct of life for all the peoples of the world even in any era.

But misfortunately in this era, we change our civilization and adopt the Western civilization which brings us to destruction. The Western civilization is called advanced but reality is that they are going back to the initial stage of civilization of the world. Because initially man lived in the caves and nothing know about civilization. Then he realized and their civilization gradually increased. Eventually, the civilization reached at its peak in the era of Islam. Then civilization maintains some time and then gradually decreased. At last, it reaches at the present stage which is nearly close to the initial stage. But the question is that, why we adopted Western civilization? Where we are standing? Are we turned away from Islam? Are Today’s Muslims representing Islam?

Today, we need to follow the real teachings of Islam. Islam teaches us the easiest way of living but this is our mistake that we made it complicated. Islam teaches us simplicity. A simple dress to wear that covers all the parts of body of human. The real beauty is in the simplicity. Islam teaches us the moralities like patience, tolerant, cleanliness, courage, behavior for others and etc. Islam teaches us, a way to deal with others, a way to behave with relatives, neighbors and other people. When these qualities merged in a person then it is called civilized person and then civilization came into being.

But the disaster is that Western countries represent women as an advertisement and worse thing is that we adopt this culture madly. I must share a saying of a sage that, “If nakedness is civilization then animals are the most civilized.” We are making our people uncivilized by doing these kinds of things. Our television channels represent Western culture or civilization and our young generation tries to implement this culture on him.
 
My request to television producers, directors, writers and other related to them is that they must try to represent our culture and society rather than to represent the culture of other countries. They should made documentaries, dramas and movies to give awareness to the people of our country particularly young generation that what we were and what we are? Please think for it, think for it…
