How to Successfully Combat the Economic Recession and Depression
How to Successfully Combat the Economic Recession and Depression: Every where in the world there is a talk and complain about the economic recession, people are losing their jobs and facing loss in the business. But we are Shia Muslims and the followers of Hazrat Abbas “the Bearer of the Flag”(Alambardar) at the battlefield of Karbala on Ashura day,and lovers of Imam Ali(A.S.) and his family. We have before our sight the portraits of the lives of our beloved Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) and his Ahlul Bayt(A.S.). We are the lovers of Imam Husain(A.S.), the spiritual Imam,leader of Shias in the world, who in the love of Benevolent Allah left all his comfort of homeland refused to accept the sinister and evil person Yazid son of Muawiya as the Caliph of Muslims.
The lovers of Imam Husain(A.S.) should be always patient, cool and peaceful because he is following the path of Imam Husain(A.S.) and his heart should be firm to face any kind of crises in the love of Imam Husain(A.S.). Be benevolent, caring and loving with your family specially your wife, because wife only helps her husband in the crisis. We must cross this bridge of trails or economic recession successfully. By this way we should prove ourselves that we are the true lovers and the followers of Imam Husain(A.S.).We must show lot of love and care to our family, wife and children. We must care a lot the natives of our mother land. We must try our best to give a helping hand. Maybe it will work like a blooming flower upon the hearts of others.
Be brave because this life has its own ups and downs. If this life is lacking these minus points then the living in this mortal world will become tasteless and meaningless. Always try to share the grievances of others at least by some pacifying words and always encourage people. Do not leave the people alone with their problems. We all must hold the rope of Allah firmly and step forward toward our divine goals.
Al-Imran [3:103]
وَاعْتَصِمُواْ بِحَبْلِ اللّهِ جَمِيعًا وَلاَ تَفَرَّقُواْ وَاذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَةَ اللّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ كُنتُمْ أَعْدَاء فَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُم
بِنِعْمَتِهِ إِخْوَانًا وَكُنتُمْ عَلَىَ شَفَا حُفْرَةٍ مِّنَ النَّارِ فَأَنقَذَكُم مِّنْهَا كَذَلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ اللّهُ لَكُمْ آيَاتِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ
3:103
And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided. And remember the favor of Allah upon you – when you were enemies and He brought your hearts together and you became, by His favor, brothers. And you were on the edge of a pit of the Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you may be guided.
Alhamdolillah we are marching behind the flag of the 14 Masumeen (A.S.),Inshallah, they will guide and support us in all the crisis and with their help and guidance we all will come out from all the crisis with heads held high. Insha\’allah.
I remember a saying of my beloved father Aga Husain Zabeth who used to recite in Farsi: Khuda dari che gam dari “When you have the Kind God beside you then why are you sorrowful?”.
Always present the world with a petal of smile and share the sorrows with smiles and graceful looks.
Always be happy as our Imam Zamana, the Only Saviour and Redeemer of the World and Humanity, Hazrat Mahdi (May Allah Almighty Hasten His Reappearance and Second Coming) is always with us to support us and bless us courage.
