Supreme creation by the supreme authority for a supreme cause makes complete the phenomenon of creation or existence. The moment human creature comes into existence is the same moment when ways of enlightenment are open for him. A spark of illumination i-e, the light “Noor” of God enters in and the human structure becomes complete to spread all around the “Noor” of Allah by his words, actions, dealings, ups and downs etc. One of the prime obligations is the structuring of society on the principles of good, justice, equality, love, and sympathy and to denounce the practices of fraud, deceit, selfishness. The outcome of this structuring will surely be a just society, prosperous lives, healthy relationships and long lasting peace and stability. People come and leave but the order of human society and the world at large is not an easy task, but also not impossible when we paraphrase the chapters of history. Writing so, the events in the human history have made “the time” as witness for us that nothing is out of human reach. The only thing that is a must need is that the pure human heart, selfless love for fellow creatures and to admit rather I can say there is no way to deny the supreme authority of Almighty Allah – Our creator. What cannot be achieved rather I can say limitation of time limits the pious human wants. In and around all this regulatory affairs of human lives the conscious reason is the basic qualification for structuring of our society, the system all around and more importantly evidence of character based life of the human being as an example for whole society. The lucrative life all around and the greed to get more and more while to trample underfoot the aspirations, interests, and the basic needs of other people makes mockery of a human as the supreme creation of Almighty Allah. I am talking about stupidity, foolishness, idiotic behaviour, ridiculous attitude and madness or the state of being mentally ill, these all attributes of any human rather I can say the delinquency of a human or the delinquent or corrupt human mind becomes the root cause of all other associated diseases in our society.
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood. These are the opening words in Article 1 of Universal Declaration of Human Rights also known as Magna Carta on Human Rights. Slaves suggest a state of bondage, and stupidity acts as the metaphorical chain that constrains individuals. Blindly following rules or norms can always be detrimental for the individual and to the society at large.
People are their own worst oppressors, willingly adhering to beliefs or behaviours that limit their freedom and potential. Individuals who consistently adopt popular opinions or behaviours without critical thought can be seen as “slaves” to trends. These popular opinions which fail in the long run are nothing more than the trends to gain attention or divert attention. Those who blindly obey authority without questioning or evaluating the validity of orders can be seen as “slaves” to authority. People, who make choices that are detrimental to their own well-being, even if they are aware of the consequences, can be seen as “slaves” to their own impulses.
Those kinds of pictures, “white men treating black’s as interiors and the wealthy subjecting poor under their control and punishing them for their unfortunate crime of being poor” have become our definition of slavery; the visual that creates a picture of what slavery is. That definition is nearly not exclusive, making our definition of slavery so incredibly tight that we can’t see any other kind of slavery at all. And if we don’t see slavery, we assume freedom. That assumption in and of itself can be enslaving. But nothing in the entire world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity. Ignorance is being oblivious, to one degree or another, to the obvious. It’s not seeing what actually ‘is’ to the point that whatever it ‘is’ that ‘is,’ isn’t . . . at all. It’s having no recognition of something that exists despite how very real and very powerful that thing might be. It seems that kind of living can be freeing in some cases, and horrifically dangerous in others. The worst kind of ignorance is when we are ignorant that we are ignorant. At that point slavery leaps out of tin-types and into our worlds.
