The Cantonment authorities and DHA administration has been instructed by the government to undertake extensive preventive and precautionary measures by ensuring the fumigation of anti-dengue pesticides to destroy dengue mosquitoes.
I think besides having screening camps and extra beds and offering free care, we should ask why this has happened, and it's getting worse,
I think it's high time time we as Muslims should realize that Allah is in control of all good and bad, and perhaps we should all hold our own selves accountable and responsible for the mess we all are in as a nation, we should reflect to the Quran Which is the ultimate guide, and in the Quran there are many nations that suffered the wrath of our creator, and the Quran explicitly explains why.
We should understand how Allah wants us to live our lives , no matter what era we are in, and compare it with the lives we have chosen to live.
In persuit of Rights, men and women, old and young, rich and poor, educated and illiterate we all have forgotten what is Right, and right is only what's in the Quran , and our current state of affairs is a clear reflection of our denial of the essence of Quran.
The mosques are empty, and the hospitals, jails, and courts are full, we need to reflect, and to wake up and get our selves detoxified.
We need to stop breaking the rules set by Allah in the Quran.
We should as a nation ask Allah for his forgiveness, and take a vow , not to break the rules again, and make an effort to live the life ad guided by our beloved prophet (swas)
Let's be peaceful and lead the world towards peace, as islam means peace, and we as Muslims are here to lead but not follow.
And every Muslim is a leader by birth , and is in this world to lead people out of darkness
, and be light and beacon of hope for others .
Let us not be afraid of the creation, but be afraid of the creator
