I fail to understand why we all complain about others yet we ourselves are not right. We've heard it all before if you point fingers at others four point back to you...(i think thats how the saying goes) but this is such a strong statement. Just think about it, we might complain about how somebody has treated us wrongly. Fine, this might be the case. But then at the same time we have wronged many people ourselves. How bad does it feel when somebody lies to you, but you constantly lie about others.
Well this is the feeling I got especially living in Peshawar where everybody blames others except themselves. This was on every level. People blaming Americans for everything, they have done this and they come out with all kinds of conspiracy theories. You see a shopkeeper he complains about the government and then the next minute he is ready to rip off his customer with huge lies. No doubt I see the mosque full on friday prayers, but then when everybody goes back to their business they continue the same routine of fraud, lies, tricks and so on. Why is that? I thought when you pray it is supposed to clean your heart, it is supposed to stop you from evil. The fact of the matter is that those people don't really know why they pray. They don't know what prayer is, it is just a ritual to them. It is like telling a non-muslim pray just for the sake of it, he will copy the acts of prayer but it doesn't reach his heart if he doesn't know why or what is the significance of what he is doing.
Anywayz I think I have written a bit too much...thats it for now
