REFORMING SOCIETY
SUB: OUR RESPONSIBILITY IN REFORMING SOCIETY
Dear Brothers & Sisters,
It Is Not Enough To Be Good; One Must Also Show The
Right Path To Others Who Might Otherwise Do Evil.
You know that to eliminate all kinds of vices from
the world and to promote good is the responsibility
of every person. Everyone amongst us is a caretaker
and is responsible for his subordinates on the Day
of Judgment. Rulers will be answerable for the
citizens of their state, every Family Head will be
accountable for the members of his family and will
be asked as to what he did for their reformation,
education and better life. He will be asked as to
whether he forbid them from adopting the bad ways,
and helped them in leading a pious life or not.
The world history reveals that until the people
performed the task of commanding the others to do
good and barring them from doing evil, the pious
people remained dominant in those societies and there
was peace and tranquility and satanic forces were
subdued. But, when this collective responsibility is
now designated only to clerics, and the common people
have ignored this task, in spite of the efforts of
the clerics, waywardness is spreading quickly. A wave
of offenses, terrorism, tyranny, evils, sins,
ignorance and anarchy have engulfed almost every
segment of life. Disorder, commotion and chaos are on
the rise in the world society, wrecking the peace of
all mankind.
The world is facing disaster upon disaster every day
and people are expecting a major catastrophe. The
deeds that have been forbidden by God are being
committed openly. The evils are increasing, while the
virtues are fading out gradually. Tyranny, oppression
and carnage are going on, liars and cheats are
overcoming. Terrorism, bribery, corruption, evil,
nudity, vulgarity and wickedness have assaulted the
world. It seems we have reached inferno before the
Last Day.
I appeal to the NOBLES of the world and especially
the ELDERS and the PARENTS that they should not only
depend upon their prayers; rather they should lead
the people to the right path by leading through
example. Only then will their virtues and prayers
reward them on The Day of Judgment.
