Jum'ah Journal

 "Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet, 
Women and sons, 
Heaped up hoards of gold and silver
 Horses branded (for blood &excellence)
And (wealth of) Cattle and
Well-tilled land.
Such are the possessions of this world's life But in the nearness to God is the best of the goals (to return to)"
                                                                    (Sura Al-e Imran verse 14.)
  Well in today's world make some equivalent changes for understanding--For gold and silver -- Bank balances
For Horses---Expensive autos and personal planes
 for cattle and land---Big mansions in specific cities and countries
 for women and sons, just delete sons and write WOMEN in capital letters.
 I wrote women in the end but the real sequence as the Creator himself has remarked, it is to be given the top place. When big aristocrats and bankers with lot of money and possessions and people with POWER, (Both with and without the enormous musculature) the only thing left is women women and women. Man's history is full of that. Would anybody turn to the advice and admonition of God?
