Some Time in 24 hours
(Syed Manazir-ul-Haq, Karachi)
In every age a talk is being
heard about children that today’s kids are very intelligent or the race of the
age is swift.
The poet once forced to say:
Children have been wise with the transition of age.
Have you ever considered why such talks are being told or heard? The answer is
that the time has been teaching the human beings with its development purview –
the teaching we got in earlier age was limited in comparison with the teaching
of present age. Alike the teaching of age of the future will have much higher
potential with the teaching of the present age as from the hundreds years the
life in every shape or color is changing on with the passage of time. But
development and mental abilities can only be enhanced if man studies and
analyzes the phenomenon of nature and tries to understand the secrecy of nature
with the help of Heavenly Books and teaching of Prophets.
Knowledge is expanding from the day one it supports to those who tries to make
friendship with it. We shall have to make friendship with books if we want to be
progress and desire to have strength and respect in the world as knowledge gives
strength and respect already proved during the Khaleph ages when Muslim Rulers
ruled over the world. Pakistan cannot progress until and unless its masses
approach to knowledge. Therefore we shall have to pass some time in twenty four
hours with knowledgeable books to boost our skills and expertise. Federal and
Provincial Governments should also pull out some time for spreading of true
education in all over the country by way of free education upto Matric. Further
one tier education system should be launched i.e. the government school may
provide the same education which is providing by top class private schools.
Now-a-days development of a country can be evaluated with the books printed
during the year and it is also observed that how many people go into the public
libraries within the year. Thus it is estimated how much growing in cumulative
thinking of nation has born this year as compared to last year or against other
countries - what is the state of sense and thinking of the homeland. Collective
graph of thinking can only be grown up when the habit of study is considered the
way of worship i.e. the knowledge should be used for the welfare, service and
betterment of human beings and other creatures of Allah. Moreover it is
essential to grow the fond of study in human beings especially children and
youths – they may be get understood that without knowledge they cannot obtain
true respect as the wealth cannot give factual esteem. Remember that study not
only increases the state of thinking but also it gives water to the abilities of
brain. If we could devote some time in twenty-four hours for this useful task,
we can put step to the way of better future.
