I always think that am I an ordinary people?. Sometime we think that we are special and al the other people are ordinary in our eyes, But the same happened in the eyes of the others. Allah knows that we are all equal but we never admit this thing. In every country, every tribe, every section, every family some people are very important persons (VIP) while the others are just person. We divided the people into the different categories and this attitude continues in the religion too.
Allah in the following verse of the Holy Quran as mentioned below order that in the eyes of Allah every one is same and their is no distinction of people and Allah wants that all the people bow their head in the same manner:
"Then hasten on from the Place from which the people hasten on and ask the forgiveness of Allah; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful."
(Surah No: 2 & Verse No: 199)
Before Islam the Sardars of Quraish do not want to hasten and live as the ordinary people do in the days of pilgrimage, But Allah destroyed all such things because the Islam wants the equality and wants that people will bow their heads in front of one Lord. I always think that we believe in one Allah and one apostle but we never want to implement their preaching in our life.
We always think that we believe in Islam, teaching of Islam and the sayings of Apostle but if we think about our life neutrally then we come to the point that we never follow the above mentioned things. We want to follow the religion of which we desired. We have our own thinking and thoughts about the religion, if we feel burden then we just get rid of the religious practices which we follow in the past.
When some one migrate to the European country and American countries then they will change their culture, religious values and ethnic and social values without any hesitation. We wear the clothes which they wear and proud on that, we call this thing as cultural adoption, but it is not the fact we follow the things which we actually want. We never ask the forgiveness of Allah, We think that we can change our life with our own hands. We forgot that only Allah has the power to change our lives and only we need the assistance of Allah. May Allah forgive us and send His mercy on us.
